Pulses per revolution. On magnetic pick-up machines, this setting will be the number of teeth
on the gear or sprocket it is reading. On alternator pick-up machines, the setting will need to
be obtained from your local dealer or Bandit Industries.
Magnetic pick-up, also called pick-up probe. This is normally located screwed into the flywheel
housing on the engine block. It can also be found on the clutch housing or chipper shaft. See
Figure 1.
This block is used in most cases. It is located near the fender on the frame of the chipper. An easy
way to find it is by following the hydraulic hose from the pump. The block will be the first thing it is
hooked into. This block also contains the main relief. When the solenoid is activated (indicated by
the light in the connector) the feedwheel(s) are stopped by the autofeed system. See Figure .
Located on the infeed hopper of the chipper. It can be recognized by a valve with one solenoid
bolted on a square block. The solenoid is approximately 2-1/2” (63.5mm) diameter x 2-3/4” (69.9mm)
long. It will have two wires coming from it or on the newer machines it will have a connector with
a light screwed to it. When the solenoid is activated (indicated by the light in the connector) the
feedwheel(s) are reversed by the autofeed plus system. See Figure .
Normally seen on bigger machines such as 280, 1850, 1890, 1990, 2090, etc. and special options.
This will normally be located on the infeed hopper of the machine. It can recognized by a valve
with two solenoids bolted on a square block. The solenoid is approximately 2-1/2” (63.5mm)
diameter x 2-3/4” (69.9mm) long. It will have two wires coming from it or on the newer machines
it will have a connector with a light screwed to it. The feed coil must have power (indicated by
the light in the connector) for the feedwheels to feed and pull material in. See Figure .
Electronically activated to produce a magnetic pull which shifts the spool inside the hydraulic valve.
Shifting of the spool changes oil flow direction from operating forward or dumping oil to tank.
High or HI is the setting when the feedwheels will turn back on (feeding operation).
Low or LO is the setting when the autofeed will reverse (if equipped) the feedwheels and then
turn the feedwheels off.
Amount of time in seconds the feedwheels will back the wood away from the cutter disc/drum.
Normally this will be set at . seconds.
