STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS
UNCOUPLING THE CHIPPER FROM THE TRACTOR
1. For coupling or uncoupling the chipper, always turn
off the tractor and apply the parking brake before
entering the area between the chipper and tractor.
2. Before disconnecting the hydraulic hoses from trac-
tor, ensure that the hydraulic system is depressurized.
3. When uncoupling the universal shaft from the trac-
tor, support the shaft using the hook provided for it
on the chipper. This prevents the shaft from falling
to the ground.
STORAGE OF THE CHIPPER
1. Clean the chipper after use and before putting in sto-
rage.
2. Store the chipper in an area where there are no peop-
le. Do not let children play near the chipper!
3. Before uncoupling the chipper from the tractor, park
it on level and hard ground. Take appropriate measu-
res to prevent the chipper from moving or falling. If
necessary, use boards or beams for additional sup-
port.
4. If the chipper is to be stored for a long period, lubri-
cate the knives e.g. with petroleum jelly.
5. Take appropriate measures to keep the water drainage
holes on the lower chamber open.
AFTER STORAGE AND BEFORE USE

2. Ensure that there is a sufficient amount of oil in the
hydraulic unit.
