Safety Booklet v
Brush Chippers have been involved in a number
of hood related accidents over the years. Some have
resulted in death! All known hood accidents happened
because the factory installed solid steel pin joining
the hood halves was removed and the disc was
spinning when the chipper hood was opened or being
closed. Do Not open the chipper hood with chipper
disc/drum turning. Do Not close the hood with chipper
disc/drum turning. Do Not run the chipper with the hood
open. Do Not operate without the factory approved chipper
hood pin system securely in place.

“LAST CHANCE STOP”
Have you heard reports or seen your employees bending over and reaching into the infeed hopper, near
the feedwheels? Along with the wooden push paddle and the infeed hopper tray, Bandit Industries, Inc. began
installing on their mechanical feed hand fed chippers the patented “Last Chance Stop” cable system. This
system has been standard on Bandit® Chippers since March 1997. This device was developed to provide an
emergency shut‑off/reverse for the hydraulic feedwheels on most hand fed chippers, and operates without
any electric parts. The system typically consists of two simple cables hanging inside the infeed hopper and in
front of the feedwheels approximately halfway between the entrance of the infeed hopper and the feedwheels.
If an operator incorrectly finds themselves past the feed control bar and inside the infeed hopper, he/she
has a cable to reverse/stop feedwheels and wood flow.
The “Last Chance Stop” is Not installed to encourage an operator to reach into the infeed hopper. Operators
should never reach into that area with hands or feet. If your operator gets into a situation that the safety
cable needs to be pulled, they have been operating the chipper in an unsafe manner contrary to all safety
instructions. The system must be properly maintained and periodically checked. The “Last Chance Stop” will
do nothing for the negligent operator kicking into the infeed hopper.
The Hood Pin has to be in place to do what it was designed to do.
Hood pins and associated parts like padlocks, engine disable plug, and spring lock for the hood pin are all
available from Bandit® Dealers.
Do Not attempt to remove the hood pin or open chipper hood until the engine is shut off, you have waited
as many minutes as it takes, and you can see, feel, and hear that the chipper disc/drum has stopped turning.
If the hood contacts a spinning chipper disc/drum it can suddenly fly open and severely injure or kill you.
Make-shift replacement pins don’t work and are dangerous. Use the correct size factory approved pins.
