CHECK LEDGER KNIFE CLEARANCE
To avoid serious injury or death: Knives and ledgers are sharp. ALWAYS wear gloves and eye
protection while inspecting and adjusting ledger clearance.
IMPORTANT: It is best to have two people available to check ledger knife clearance; or have in
place a way other than the pivot latch to securely
support the feed chute rotate up; or remove the
feed chute from the chipper lower frame.
Figure 3-3: View of Rotor Knife (#4) and Ledger
Knife (#5)
The knives (#4) cut best if knife ledger (#5) is
adjusted with 1mm to 1.5mm gap between
cutting edge of knives and knife ledger. The
larger the gap, the faster the product with self-
feed. Do not exceed 1.5mm gap.
