5.2 To Stop the Engine
Release the operating lever.
Switch the engine ON/OFF switch to the ‘O’ off position.
Turn the fuel tap lever to the OFF position.
Ensure the blades have stopped rotating prior to moving the machine.
WARNING: THE EXHAUST COVER MAY BE HOT – DO NOT TOUCH.
5.3 Safety Equipment
The C50i operator must be wearing:
•
Ear Defenders
•
Gloves
•
Protective Footwear
•
Safety Glasses
5.4 Operation
Increase engine to FULL throttle and allow the machine to build up to its FULL operating
speed.
Ensure the maximum thickness of timber is not exceeded. Timber less than 25mm (1”) in
diameter usually self-feeds through the machine. If it is over 25mm (1”) in diameter, it may
be necessary to pull the timber back to avoid over-feeding if the engine speed starts to drop.
Always put the thickest end of the branch into the chute first. FAILURE TO OBSERVE THIS
PRECAUTION WILL CAUSE DAMAGE - correct feed pressure and engine speed is
important to reduce the possibility of damage to the machine. DO NOT pull out or push in
the short end pieces with hands. Use the next branch to feed the short end through the
chipper each time. BE CAREFUL - short ends sometimes feed themselves through the
chipper but are occasionally thrown out.
Clear processed material regularly; do not allow it to build up underneath the machine.
Empty the collection bag regularly if used.
NEVER overload the machine.
NEVER stand in front of the chipper chute when the machine is operating.
NEVER position the machine on a ledge higher or lower than the operator. Machine and
operator must be on the same level.
ALWAYS operate the machine a FULL throttle.
ALWAYS allow the machine to run at full speed for 2 minutes before switching off.
Allow the machine to cool down before moving the discharge and in-feed chute for
transportation.
