WARNING
Do not remove, jam, disable, bypass, override or otherwise impede the
effectiveness of the yellow safety bar.
Emergency stopping
There are two methods of stopping the chipper in the event of an emergency.
Stopping the rollers
Activating the yellow safety bar will stop the rollers immediately.
Stopping the rollers & engine
Pushing the Emergency stop button positioned on top of the funnel kills all power to both the engine
and the rollers, bringing the machine to a complete stop. It overrides all buttons and bars and will
not allow the chipper to function until it has been reset. To reset, pull out button until it returns to its
original position, turn the ignition key back to the off position, before restarting the machine.
Engine controls
This label indicates the speed setting of the chipper. With the throttle lever in the fast position (hare)
the machine is ready to chip. When the machine is not in use for short periods of time move the
lever to the idle position (tortoise) or turn off completely. Move the lever to idle position and turn off
the choke, the engine will be stopped.
Blade wear
The most important part of using a wood chipper is keeping the cutter blades sharp. Chipper blades
are hollow ground to an angle of 40 degrees. When performing daily blade checks ensure blade edge
is sharp and free from chips, if there is any evidence of damage, or the edge is "dull" change the
blade(s). The wood chipper is fitted with 2 blades 109mm long. They are 100mm wide when new. A
new blade should chip for up to 25 hours before it requires sharpening. This figure will be drastically
reduced by feeding the machine with stony, sandy or muddy material.
As the blade becomes blunt, performance is reduced. With increased stress and load on the machine
the chips will become more irregular and stringier. At this point the blade should be sent to a
