5.
Before beginning to feed, ensure the motor is
warmed up and the rotor is up to speed.
6.
Move the feed control bar into the feed position to
start the feed rollers turning
7.
Stand to the side of the feed table, slowly slide
material into the feed table and move it into the
feed rollers.

Do not force the material into the rollers, as the
material engages the roller, the roller will draw the
material in.

Ensure your wood chip pile is contained and
doesn't affect the immediate work area.
12.10 Operating Hints
1.
De-limb branches that are greater than 1" (2.5 cm)
before feeding them into the hopper. This prevents
the tree from jamming in the feed hopper.
2.
When feeding large bushy branched material, have
an assistant positioned at the roller control bar to
keep branches from hitting it and deactivating the
rollers.
3.
Line up the chipper to the material so it can be fed
straight in to the feed table. Loading is easier and
reduces material handling time.
4.
Keep the working area clean and free of debris to
prevent slipping or tripping. Operate only on level
ground.

variety of material without any problem, occasionally it
may plug. If the machine plugs, follow this procedure to
unplug:

Clear the area of all bystanders.
3.
Visually inspect and ensure all material is out and
nothing is jammed or wedged between the hopper
and the rotor. If this does not unplug the chipper or
the engine is stopped, the plug must be removed
by hand.
4.
Pull any remaining material out of the feed hopper
and discharge hood.
5.
Use a stick to poke loose any material jammed into
the discharge hood. Be sure all the material is out
