•
USE COMMON SENSE WHEN USING YOUR CHIPPER.
•
LEARN TO RECOGNIZE THE CHANGE IN THE SOUND OF YOUR MACHINE
WHEN IT IS OVERLOADED.
•
BECOME FAMILIAR WITH SUCCESSFUL OPERATING CONDITIONS AND
AVOID THOSE THAT CAN OVERLOAD AND DAMAGE THE MACHINE.
•
IF THE MACHINE BECOMES JAMMED BY OVERLOADING OR ANY OTHER
CAUSE, STOP THE MACHINE IMMEDIATELY.
•
IF YOU JAM THE MACHINE AND DO NOT STOP THE ENGINE, IT CAN:
•
BURN THE BELT
•
RUIN THE CLUTCH
THIS DAMAGE CAN BE COSTLY AND IT MAY NOT BE COVERED UNDER
WARRANTY. FOR THIS REASON, IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU IMMEDIATELY
SHUT OFF THE MACHINE IF IT BECOMES JAMMED.
•
ONLY YOUR OPERATOR EXPERIENCE WILL TELL YOU HOW FAST TO FEED
LIMBS.
•
CHECK TO SEE THAT THE FLYWHEEL WILL TURN FREELY BEFORE YOU START
THE CHIPPER.
•
VISUALLY CHECK CHIPPER KNIFE FOR DAMAGE EACH TIME YOU USE YOUR
CHIPPER.
•
CHECK KNIFE CONDITION, WEAR PLATE CONDITION, GAP SETTING AND THE
NUTS AND BOLTS THAT HOLD THE KNIFE IN PLACE FOR TIGHTNESS EVERY
8-10 HOURS OF OPERATION.
•
DO NOT ALLOW CHIPS TO BUILD UP WITHIN 3” OF DISCHARGE CHUTE
OPENING. MOVE CHIPPER OR PILE AS NEEDED. FAILURE TO DO THIS COULD
RESULT IN UNNECESSARY JAMMING OF THE MACHINE.
•
TO MOVE PILE OF PROCESSED MATERIAL, USE SPADE, RAKE, OR LONG
HANDLE TOOL. NEVER USE YOUR HANDS OR FEET!
