INSERT

The intended use of the winch is to assist the operator with pulling large tree limbs to the wood chipper

feedwheels without having to lift and carry.

Pinch point hazards may develop during winching operations. The hydraulic controls are located on the

  side of the infeed hopper. Operating the winch is a one-man operation.  Do not have one person operating
  the winch hydraulic control with another person operating or holding the winch line.  The person holding the
  winch line could have his hand pinched when another person is operating the winch control.

Winching large limbs to the wood chipper should be performed by one person.

Stay clear when winching.

Do not allow winch line or other ropes to be snagged and pulled into the chipper knives.

Avoid becoming entangled in the winch line. Never place yourself between the brush and the winch line

while using the winch line to pull large tree limbs toward the chipper.

The metal hook at the end of the winch line entering the wood chipper could result in serious damage to the

knives and other internal components causing the potential for injury to operators.

When you are not using the winch, ensure that it is retracted and stowed so that it can not be pulled into

the chipper.

Never pull out the winch line while brush or limbs are feeding into the chipper.

Never attach winch line to an installed choker if other limbs are feeding into the machine.

Brush can snag winch line or climbers’ ropes. Knives can grab and pull in line and anything attached to it

at a high rate of speed.

If you are in between the chipper and the winch line that is caught in the knives, the winch line will be pulled

in at a very rapid speed and you will not have time to get out of its way. Death or serious injury may result.

Do not overload the winch. The cable can break or the choker can come off and strike a worker.

Be aware of the hazards of winch line breakage. Ensure that everyone remains clear of the recoil area in

the event of load or cable breakage.

Pull loads in a manner that avoids angles which could result in tipping or other unintended movement of the

chipper and towing vehicle.

CONTROLS

WINCH OPERATING PROCEDURES

DANGER

Follow all winch operating procedures, if not followed severe injury or death can result.

DANGER

Brush being fed into the chipper infeed hopper can
snag an extended winch line. The knives on the
spinning disc/drum can grab and pull in the winch
line at a high rate of speed resulting in serious injury
or death to workers nearby.

DANGER

The winch line is under tension at times and could
suddenly release, snapping back into the operator
causing serious injury or death.

DANGER

Never operate the hydraulic winch with the wood
chipper detached from the towing vehicle. The load
may move the wood chipper or pull the tongue off
the support blocking.

DANGER

Climbers’ ropes and other lines present at the work
site can become entangled in brush being fed into
the chipper. The knives on the spinning disc/drum
can grab and pull in ropes at a high rate of speed
resulting in serious injury or death to workers nearby.

DANGER

Most winch lines contain a metal hook at the end. If
the metal hook enters the infeed hopper, it could be
ejected out of the discharge chute at a high rate of
speed causing serious injury or death.

NOTICE

Before operating machine, you must have all
potential operators; read and understand manuals
and decals, watch the video and follow the
recommendations.

DANGER

Make sure there is outbound tension on the winch
line whenever the winch line is being powered out.
Using the hydraulic control to power out the winch
line rather than free spool the line out could result
in the line becoming tangled around the spool and
wind inward when the hydraulic lever is in the unwind
position. If a worker is holding the winch line when
this happens a potential nip point is created between
the cable housing and hook and also the the winch
line and material.
