HIPPING
B
RANCHES
1.
Stand to the side of the Hopper, ensuring you have a stable stance and firm footing.
2.
When placing long branches into the chipper funnel, remove twigs and smaller branches
so that you are feeding a thin, straight piece into the machine.
3.
Place branches ‘th
ick-end-
first’. Allow the machine’s blades to take the branch from you.
You will feel the blades pull the branch from you(see Pic.20).
4.
When finished chipping, turn OFF the machine, allow all moving parts to come to a
complete stop, and disconnect the spark plug wire before moving the machine, emptying
the bag, unclogging the inlets or outlets, filling the gas tank, or performing maintenance
and repairs.
