Owner’s Manual 

Instructions for Installation/Set-up, Operation, Servicing, & Storage 

 

Portable Outdoor Use-Only, Power Take-Off (PTO) Chipper 

 

 

Make sure you completely read and understand this manual before using the chipper for the first time.  If 
you have any questions, contact your retail or rental dealer or NorTrac Customer Service at 1-800-521-
0438 

WARNING 

READ and UNDERSTAND this manual completely before using the chipper

!

  Failure to properly set 

up, operate, and maintain this chipper could result in 

serious injury or death

 to the operator or bystanders.

  

In 

addition, 

PTO shaft can become airborne and cause severe injury

 if improperly secured.  

In particular, be aware of the following hazards: 

 

Failure to properly mount and secure the chipper to the tractor may cause the unit to flip violently during 
use, which could cause severe injury to the operator or bystanders, or damage to surrounding objects. 

 

Never operate the chipper without proper PTO guarding, including a freely rotating shaft guard. Clothing or 
hair can become rapidly entangled in unguarded rotating PTO shaft or connections, resulting in 

serious 

injury or death.

 

 

Make sure PTO driveline shaft is securely locked at both ends.  An unlocked PTO shaft can whip or become 
dangerously airborne. 

 

Keep hands and feet away from inlet and discharge openings.   

 

Do not allow children under the age of 18 or untrained adults to operate. 

 

Wear eye protection and other personal protection against flying debris. 

 

Do not attempt to perform adjustments, declog or clean unit while engine is running. 

 

Make sure no children or bystanders are within 100’ (feet) of chipping operation. 

 

Protect cars, windows and other objects within 100’ from flying debris. 

 

Be aware of potential for carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning. 

 

Avoid using in slippery, muddy, wet or icy conditions where falls may occur. 

 
These and other hazards in the manual and summarized at the end under “Important Safety 
Information.” 
 

STOP!
