Emergency stop 

The emergency stop acts as an immediate kill switch to the engine. It does not stop the cutting rotor from spinning. The cutting 

rotor will continue to spin for some time due to its rotational inertia. To engage the emergency stop, push the red button. To 

disengage the emergency stop, twist the red button clockwise until it releases outwards. 

 

Use it when foreign matter such as sand, stones or metal enter the inlet chute 

 

Use it in response to an immediate hazard/danger to an operator or onlooker 

 

After the cutting rotor comes to a halt, follow the regular shutdown procedure in addition to using the emergency stop 

 

Inspect the machine before resetting the emergency stop 

 

Under normal conditions, 

Do NOT

 use the emergency stop in place of the regular shutdown procedure 

Storage 

 

 

Always allow the chipper to cool before storing 

 

Store the chipper out of the reach of children  

 

Store the chipper where fuel vapor will not reach an open flame or spark 

 

Switch fuel lever to off position 

 

For extended storage periods, run the unit dry of fuel 

 

Store the chipper out of the rain 

 

Water can rust the steel body of the chipper 

Troubleshooting 

 

What to do if: 

 

The chipper won’t start 

 

The engine oil level might be too low  

 

The chipper is fitted with oil alert and will not start if the oil level is too low 

 

Check the oil level and top up if required 

 

The chipper is placed on a slope 

 

The chipper is fitted with oil alert and will not start if the oil is not level 

 

Move the chipper to level ground  

 

The emergency stop is still engaged 

 

Ensure emergency stop is disengaged before starting the chipper 

 

Belt drive engagement will not work  

 

The inlet chute or housing might be blocked 

 

Turn engine off, disconnect the spark plug wire, ensure cutting rotor has completely stopped, remove 

debris, restart engine, then attempt to re-engage the belt drive  

 

The chipper slows down and stalls 

 

The chipper is clogged up 

 

Turn the engine off, disconnect the spark plug wire, ensure cutting  rotor has completely stopped, 

remove debris, then close and lock the outlet chute 

 

Discharge slows down 

 

The chipper is clogged up 

 

Turn the engine off, disconnect the spark plug wire, ensure cutting  rotor has completely stopped, 

remove debris, then close and lock the outlet chute 

 

The chipper is slowing down 

 

The chipper can’t process the amount of material fed into it 

 

Feed the material in slower 

 

Reduce material volume 

 

The chipper will not self-feed 

 

The knives and/or anvil might be blunt 

 

Inspect and sharpen or replace knives and/or anvil as required. Ensure correct clearances between
