2. Deflector Position:
Each discharge hood is equipped with a deflector on
the end to place the chips exactly where desired. There
are 2 types available:
a. Manual Clamp (BE-WC42):
The deflector is held in place by clamping bolts
on each side. Loosen the clamps, move the
deflector and tighten the clamps.
Position as de sired.
b. Spring-Loaded (BE-WC62):
The deflector is spring-loaded up and
held in place by a chain. Release
the chain from its anchor bracket and move the
deflector to its desired position. Secure chain
in its anchor bracket.

PTO Control:
If you are not familiar with the location of the PTO
control on your tractor, review your tractor’s Operator’s
Manual. Always engage the PTO control slowly when
the engine is running at low idle RPM. Disengage the
PTO control slowly at low RPM to allow the machine to
slow and stop before engaging the PTO brake. Remem-
ber the PTO drives the rotor. When the PTO is engaged
the rotor will also start to turn.
4.
Flow Control Valve:
This manually-set flow divider allows the operator to set
the flow through the circuit from 0% to 100% by dump-
ing the excess flow back to the tractor. A scale on the
face of the valve is numbered from 0 to 10 to define the
percent of flow from 0 to 100% flowing into the circuit.
The hydraulic feed circuit is equipped with a flow divider
so the operator can adjust the feeding speed appropri-
ate for the operating conditions. Loosen the lock and
move the pointer arm to the desired position. Tighten
the lock bolt. Adjust in small increments as a small
change can result in a large change to feeding speed.
