ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
Function
The hydraulic valve bank controls operate the machine. They control the yoke and aide in machine maintenance. The auto reverse valve stops the
feed wheel when low rpm’s are detected from the motor. It allows for smooth shifts in direction (forward or reverse) of the feed wheels.
The chipper comes with several options, depending on what type of options you have will dictate how many hydraulic handles your chipper is
equipped with. Check the Table of Contents for the options on your chipper.
Use
Operating the machine is managed by moving the hydraulic handles. The handles are located on the valve bank. All handles, except the Safety
Control Bar, have a spring mechanism that will return the handle to the Neutral position when not in use.
Maintenance
• Check ttings and hoses for leaks
• Check coils for tightness
• Check for wear on wiring
WARNING
Relieve stored hydraulic pressure before
performing service to the hydraulic system.
Components could be hot to the touch.
