MATERIAL FEEDING SYSTEM AND CHIPPING
The shaped bar "A" is used to control the rotation of the feed roller. It can be placed in 3 positions:
-
"0"
Neutral position
-
"1"
Chipping position
-
"2"
Reverse position
Before starting to chip make sure the unit has reached
540 rpm PTO speed and the position control lever is
"0"
.
•
After having properly oriented the
discharge chute, open the lid of the
hopper and start the feed roller by
pushing the lever in position
"1"
.
•
Select the wood to be chipped so
as not to exceed the maximum
diameter of cut 5
½
".
•
Small branches can be kept together
and put in simultaneously with their
butt end turned towards the entrance.
•
Absolutely avoid pushing
the branches down the
hopper slide using your
hands.
Use other pieces of
wood and if necessary,
use proper pusher device.
The chippers are equipped with a valve of formal discharge circuit, pre-set by the manufacturer, to stop
the rotation of the feed roller in case of overload. In case of jamming, move the lever in position "2" to
reverse the spin direction of the feed roller.
