MECHANICAL RELIABILITY - ITEMS TO CHECK

While a complete and certified evaluation of the machine and its condition relative to Diehl standards can only be confirmed by Diehl personnel, the following is a list of machine characteristics that tend to reveal its operating condition:

1. Inner saw collar wear, run-out and endplay
2. Chain surface wear, chain parallelism/surface wear and chain lubrication
3. Spindle, spindle housing and bearings
4. Pressure roll assembly
5. Feed drive assembly
6. Stock guide and mounting rail
