Safety
Preventing accidents is the responsibility of every equipment operator. The operator is responsible for any accidents or hazards
occurring to people or their property. Ensure every operator is familiar with the safe operation procedures and controls of the
machine, how to identify hazards, and the steps required to avoid injury while handling and operating the chipper. Relevant
information is contained in this manual.
Do NOT modify the design of the chipper.
Operator competency
Ensure that every person operating the chipper understands and follows the safe operating and maintenance procedures
as detailed in this manual.
Do NOT allow persons below the age of 18 to operate the chipper. Additionally, local regulations may restrict the age of
the operator.
Do NOT allow persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge to
operate the machine.
Line up holes and insert the bolts,
washers and nuts, ensuring the big
washer is touching the bolt head.
Prepare PTO drive shaft
When attaching the PTO model to a tractor for the first time, it may be necessary to shorten the length of the supplied PTO
drive shaft. To shorten the shaft, proceed as follows:
Attach the chipper to the tractor via the three-point linkage and calculate the required shaft length.
Separate the two halves of the shaft and remove equal lengths of both the shaft and the outer sleeve to achieve
the required length. Ensure that the length of the shaft protruding from the sleeve remains the same as it was
on the uncut shaft.
Remove burrs from the shaft ends, grease and reassemble.
Note: Follow the PTO drive shaft manufacturer’s instructions for installation and use.
