  If the clutch overheats, the belt burns, and the flywheel won’t turn on your Country Home Products Chipper, it's likely that the clutch is slipping or the flywheel is jammed. Here's what to do: * Immediately stop the engine. * Remove the spark plug wires. * Turn the flywheel by hand to ensure it rotates freely. * Check the belt tension. * Clear the chipper chamber.

  If the chipping action seems slow or the flywheel is stalling on your Country Home Products Chipper, it could be due to a slow engine speed or slipping belts. To resolve this: * Run the engine at full throttle. * Check for loose or missing belts and tighten them.
