SAFETY PROCEDURES
Never grind any materials that might contain wires,
stones, nails, or other metal objects which may
damage the teeth and become dangerous projectiles.
Remove all rocks and stones from stump grinding
area.
Do Not start to grind a stump unless you are
completely sure there are not any power lines, water
lines, sewer lines, phone lines, etc. in the area above
or below ground level where you are grinding.
Never go near cutter wheel or teeth while engine is
running or cutter wheel is coasting to a stop.
Your machine may or may not be equipped with
a clutch. Depending on the options ordered, some
machines are direct drive.
Do not work on the machine if the engine is running
with the clutch disengaged. A clutch can self engage if
either the pilot or throw-out bearing happens to seize
to the main output shaft.
There are various types of clutches (PTO’s)
available for this type of equipment. Make sure to
study the original clutch manufacturer’s manual that
is provided with the machine and follow its instructions
for operation, service, and adjustments. Some styles
require clutch engagement to be maintained so that it
takes a lot of force, others will require very little force,
and some are push button, electric, manual lever, or
hydraulic activation. Each different style clutch (PTO)
is a very expensive item that will fail if not correctly
maintained and adjusted. It will be quite costly if a
few minutes are not taken daily, weekly, and monthly
to keep the clutch serviced as required.
The operator must take care in the engagement
and disengagement of the clutch, engine RPM should
always be below 1000 RPM. When the engine has
sufficiently warmed up, bump the clutch handle against
engagement to start the cutter wheel turning. This will
have to be repeated until the cutter wheel is turning at
proper ratio with engine RPM. Then push the handle
all the way in gear until it locks into position securely.
After engagement raise engine RPM to full throttle.
Engaging and disengaging the clutch at high engine
RPM will quickly and excessively wear out clutch plates
as well as bearings. Refer to clutch manufacturer’s
manual for proper service and operation.
Do not attempt to start the engine or engage the
engine PTO (power-take-off) system on this machine
if the cutter wheel is jammed or frozen in place. If you
do, you will damage or ruin the drive belts and/or the
PTO which will not be covered under warranty and will
cost you down time and money.
