INTRODUCTON
CONGRATULATIONS! You have just purchased the best, safest, and most compact chipper available.
If you have too much material to run through the small shredders, nut not enough for the larger chippers, the
chipper is the right machine for the job.
Safety features include a feed roll that makes it very difficult to get fingers or hands into the blades of the
chipper, and a low chute profile that makes feeding easy because you don’t have to lift the limes so high to
feed them into the feed roll.
We have compiled this owner’s manual to help you understand and appreciate your chipper.
By taking a few minutes to read this manual and understand the maintenance instructions, you will do a better
job with the chipper, and the chipper will do a better job for you- and it will last longer. Read the manual, from
the features through the parts list, before operation the chipper.

SETUP INSTRUCTIONS
Your chipper does need to the setup prior to installation. It arrives in a metal cage that can be dismantled in
minutes.
The infeed chute and stand are shipped with the unit and are located in the bottom of the metal cage. Put the
stand together. Place the chipper on the stand and bolt on the two mount brackets. See drawings near the
back of the manual- check the table of contents for actual pages.
A small box containing the two (2) chipper hitch assemblies and mounting bolts is located in the bottom. The
chute can enclosed (see retrofit instructions regarding use of shorter bolts with lock washer and flat washer ).
Always turn the head over by hand before applying power, to ensure that nothing is in the head. If the chip
deflector or any of the guards have been removed for shipping, be sure to replace them properly.
The PTO drive line is also shipped with the unit and is also located in the bottom of the metal cage.
Keep the chipper as close to the tractor as possible . the PTO shaft needs to be sized for your tractor – see the
specific section in the manual for this procedure.
Make sure that the shaft will not bottom out in the shortest position.
Keep the PTO shaft straight and within 15 degrees of level when operation the unit.
Do not allow the chipper to be operated without the chip deflector properly in place, because the flywheel
and blades will be exposed and the flow of chips cannot be controlled.
