4�8�7 UNPLUGGING:
Although the machine is designed to handle a
wide variety of material without any problem,
occasionally it plugs. When the machine plugs,
follow this procedure to unplug:
a. Clear the area of bystanders, especially
small children.
b.
Disengage the PTO, shut off the tractor,
remove the ignition key and place it in your
pocket and wait for all moving parts to stop
before unplugging.
c. Pull any material out of the chipper hopper
and shredder hopper. Be sure all the material
is out and nothing is jammed or wedged
between the input opening and the rotor.
d. Pull any material out of the discharge hood.
Use a stick to poke loose any material
jammed into the discharge hood. Do not
allow anything to remain in this area.
e.
Check that everyone is clear of machine
before restarting.

Start the tractor, engage the PTO and
resume working.
