I recently purchased a very old Chipper with a 15" drum and Ford V-8 engine The blades are set close and does a good job with Ash up to 2-1/2 to 3" but I understand should handle 5" material . I have no idea how to set the tension on the two springs which hold the plate near to the anvil Anyone have any suggestions? Is tight or loose better?
