Tractor Wood Chipper

Max Feed Speed
MAX FEED
SPEED
0%
Sets the maximum (max) feed roller speed in 5% increments.
The value is shown as a percentage of the maximum speed
(100%).
•
Set MAX FEED SPEED higher for larger chip size. It can be
set and left at 100%.
•
Set MAX FEED SPEED lower (close to the MIN FEED
SPEED) for smaller consistent chip size.
Min Feed Speed
MIN FEED
SPEED
0%
Sets the minimum (min) feed roller speed in 5% increments. The
value is shown as a percentage of the maximum speed (100%).
Setting the MIN FEED SPEED higher provides a larger chip size
and prevents the chipper from slowing up as much when wood
is put through.
The MIN FEED SPEED cannot be set higher than 5% below the
MAX FEED SPEED.
Feed Start Speed
FEED START
SPEED
0000
Sets the rpm point where the feed rollers start up.
Min Rotor rpm
MIN ROTOR
RPM
0000
Sets the low rpm point where the feed rollers auto-reverse. If
the rotor speed slows down under load below this setting, the
P3 PULSE auto-reverses the feed rollers. When the rotor regains
speed, forward feed resumes. If the engine stalls, the MIN
ROTOR RPM is set too low.

Performance Tips
The factory settings provide good overall performance for the
machine; however, you may choose to customize performance.
Some helpful hints:
•
For very heavy brush – decrease MAX FEED SPEED to slow
the feed roller speed.
•
For smaller, consistent chip size – decrease MAX FEED
SPEED closer to MIN FEED SPEED.
•
For larger chip sizes and more aggressive feeding – Leave
MAX FEED SPEED at 100% and raise MIN FEED SPEED.
