• Impeller Inspection: With the machine unplugged, periodically inspect the metal impeller for any debris, wood chunks, or stringy material that may have become lodged. Clear any obstructions carefully.
• Hose and Connection Check: Regularly inspect all hoses and connections for cracks, leaks, or blockages. Repair or replace as necessary.
• General Cleaning: Keep the exterior of the machine clean. Wipe down surfaces to prevent dust buildup.
