Grease gun hasn't been mentioned

For a properly maintained Greenmech ... just add fuel...

 

 

Same with Timberwolf IMO!!

I got a metal dental pick from my friendly dentist for cleaning the crud out of the torx head bolts before slackening them for blade changes on my TW.

Sockets, breaking bar, wooden blocks cut to size for keeping the roller slide safely elevated, copper grease and grease gun with flexi hose.

No one has mentioned the correct device for tightening bolts to the correct measurement - a torque spanner or drive! Other tools which come in handy in the workshop for maintanence include a decent pressure washer and compressor.

I thought your 1928 manual warns against pressure washing near electrics and doesn't grit get blasted past seal with them used too aggressively.

i reckon that a torque wrench and a grease gun should be standard equipment supplied by the manufacturer

As above but I reckon one of those Halfords kits, a decent roll of spanners and a few other hand tools is an absolute must irrespective of what chipper your running. You cant be out there with nothing unless you are prepared to swallow some expensive downtime.

It very probably does. To be frank, common sense would come into play here as it would not be sensible to squirt water at high pressure into anything sensitive. Good point though. Keep your equipment clean but please be sensible with anything that is under pressure.
