STARTING THE CHIPPER
Start the machine only after it
has been set to working position
and work can be started. Always
turn o the auxiliary hydraulics
when the attachment is not in
use. Do not leave the machine
unattended when the engine of the loader is run-
ning. Follow safe stopping procedure always when
reaching into the feeding chute is necessary i.e. du-
ring cleaning or maintenance.
• Make sure that the chipper is placed rmly on the
ground and that the parking prake of the loader is
engaged to prevent moving of the equipment du-
ring use. Prevent others from operating the cont-
rols of the loader while using the chipper.
• To start the log cutter/splitter, turn the auxiliary
hydraulics lever on the loader to its locked posi-
tion and set moderate engine rpm, depending on
the working pace. Depending on the loader mo-
del, two hydraulic pumps may be used to reduce
engine noise. Do not exceed the maximum per-
missible input of hydraulic oil; full rpm must not
be used when operating with 600 or 700 series
loaders.
• Start the chipper slowly and gradually increase
the engine until the hydraulic ow is within the
recommended range depending on the chipping
operation. CAUTION! Never exceed the maximum
allower operating speed of the chipper.
• The chipper is now ready to be used.
IMPORTANT! When the chipper is
driven with the hydraulic system,
it is extremely important to slow
the loader engine speed to idle
before switching o the auxiliary
hydraulics of the loader.
SAFE STOPPING PROCEDURE
• Safe stopping of the attachment, before opening
any guard or cover, or reaching towards the bla-
des:
• Stop the attachment by turning the control bar
of the chipper to stop position and switch o the
auxiliary hydraulics of the laoder.
• Make sure that the attachment is lowered rmly
on the ground and that the attachment remains
stable.
• Shut down the loader engine and engage the par-
king brake.
• Relese the residual pressure of the hydraulic sys-
tem by moving the auxiliary hydraulics control le-
ver to its extreme positions.
• Remove the ignition key and ensure that others
can't operate the controls of the loader.
When stopping the chipper, the
knife disk continues rotating like
a ywheel even after the hydrau-
lic ow has been switched o.
Please wait until the disk has
stopped completely before per-
forming any further actions.
The chipper requires approx. 1 ½ minutes to slow
down from maximum speed to complete stop
(1000 rpm -> 0 rpm).
