Feed speed adjustment
Figure 4
The feed speed can be adjusted to suit the material being chipped see Figure . Turn
dial to align number with pip. Set feed speed so that the No-Stress operates as little
as possible, this will give the highest throughput. When feeding Leylandii or leafy
material, set feed roller speed to 4.5.
Feed jam & blockages
Be aware that whatever is fed into the machine has to come out of the chute.
Always monitor the state of chip flow out of the chute. If this stops, STOP FEEDING
MATERIAL IMMEDIATELY. Continuing to feed material will further compact a
blockage and make it more difficult to clear.
If the chipping chamber or chute become blocked:
1. Stop the engine and remove ignition key.
2. Remove chute and check that it is clear.
3. If the chipping chamber is blocked, open the engine cover, then chipping
chamber cover. DO NOT REACH INTO THE CHIPPING CHAMBER WITH
HANDS. Beware that the flywheel within the chipping chamber has two sharp
blades mounted on it and can move causing a serious injury risk. Wearing
protective gloves and using a piece of wood, carefully clean out the chipping
chamber.
