The engine drives a pulley, and the chipper / blades run on a shaft supported by sealed bearings connected with a belt. The engine oil is a 30 weight.

SOURCE: What year is my wood

The B & S Code is the date of Mfg. This engine was built in 1994 (first two digits rep. the year), Sept.( the next two digits rep. the month) and the second day of that month. Your engine was built on Sept.2,1994. Your chipper may be one year newer as the engine had to be installed after the date of mfg. Your welcome

Looking for manual for craftsman chipper

The manual can be found HERE.
On the left side of the page, under "Browse Subcomponents" you can use your RIGHT mouse button to open each page in a seperate window. This reduces the use of your BACK button, and personally, I find it more convenient.

Hope this helps.
