STARTING THE CHIPPER EQUIPPED WITH SMART FEED SYSTEM
1. Connect Smart Feed control’s plug (1) to a 12 V socket of the power source (3 pole plug, DIN 9680).
2. Start the power source.
3. Press Emergency Stop push button (2) right to the bot- tom to make sure, that Smart Feed control is
switched off. The signal light in control box (3) is out.
4. Start the chipper. Knife disc starts to rotate.
5. Increase the chipper speed to desirable level (540 – 1000 rpm). Choose the working speed so that you
get the best possible torque out of the power source.
6. Switch on the Smart Feed control power by lifting Emer- gency Stop push button (2) up. The green
signal light in control box (3) starts to blink.
7. Wait about 10 seconds. When the green signal light in control box is continuously on, the Smart Feed
control is ready to use.
CONTROLLING THE FEED BY SELECTOR SWITCH
• Control box (3) selector switch has two anti-locking spring loaded positions: when turning clockwise,
the switch activates forward feeding and you can feed wood into feeder. When turning counter-
clockwise, the switch activates reverse feeding and feed rollers reverse the wood away from the feeder.
Use reversing function if feeder blocks up because of too large wood or some other feeding disorder.
• Continuous forward feed activates when you turn the selector switch clockwise for one second and the
green signal light in control box begins to blink. When continuous forward feed is on you can release
the selector switch and start feed the material into the chipper. After you release the selector switch, the
signal light is still on.
• When continuous forward feed is on you can use re- verse feeding by turning the selector switch
counterclockwise briefly. Continuous forward feed will switch off if you turn the selector switch
counterclockwise more than two seconds.
SMART FEED CONTROL FUNCTION DURING CHIPPING
When Smart Feed control detects knife disc rotation speed decreasing, it switches off the forward feed and
activates feed reverse, which separates the wood of cutting knives. Forward feed continues automatically after
reversing.
Forward feed switching off point depends on power and torque of the power source. The more powerful the
power source is, the bigger dropping of the knife disc rotating speed Smart Feed allows. This means less pauses
during the chipping. There will be pauses more often if the po- wer source has less power.
Smart Feed control reverses automatically, if feeder blocks up. During chipping, the upper feed roller pressure is
monitored by pressure sensor (4). If the feed roller gets stuck, Smart Feed control automatically briefly reverses the
feed rollers. After reversing forward feed continues automatically. In most of the cases reversing releases any wood
stuck in feeder. Reversing function repeats until stuck wood gets loose, or user switches the forward fee- ding off.
In some cases, wood might get stuck into feeder so tight, that reversing function can’t loose the wood au -
tomatically. In this case, stop the chipper and remove the blockage.
When the blockage is removed, start the chipper, activate forward feed and continue chipping.
