BEFORE USING THE CHIPPER
IT IS ESSENTIAL TO CARRY OUT THE FOLLOWING TESTS
to check safety equipment - this
sequence of tests will only take a few seconds to carry out. We recommend that these tests are
carried out daily. Observing the function as described will confirm that the safety circuits are working
correctly. This is also a good opportunity to remind all operators of the control and emergency stop
systems.
