Farmer-Helper WC PRO Chipper 15 Revision 9/22/16
-During Operation be sure the Discharge Flap is adjust outward ~ If it is
pointed directly down it will limit the ability for air flow and reduce the
chippers efficiency.
-Do not force material into the chipper to increase its production rate ~
force feeding the chipper will cause it to plug.
-Vegetation should be clean of foreign debris and dry ~ dirt, grass, leaves
etc… will plug the machine immediately Wet materials will plug the
machine within moments.
-Vegetation should be branched material, if you have branched material
with leaves or needles be sure you are feed other branches at same time
as to mix the material as it is fed ~ wood chips are required to help move
a small amount of leaf/needle thru the chipper at the same time.
-Concentrated amounts of leaf, needle, dirt, grass, etc will plug the
chipper immediately.
-During operation if you notice the flywheel speed is reducing due to the
amount of material being fed and your tractors output ability to chip
and discharge the material ~ immediately raise the power feed roller by
the handle until the flywheel speed has increased again to its normal
speed.
