06.E
Manually Feeding
Machine
With the machine running, introduce material into the infeed
funnel. The feedworks mechanism should grab the material and
pull it into the machines cutting chamber
06.F
Utilizing Feedworks
Handle
Sometimes material can be of awkward shape/size and the
feedworks mechanism won’t automatically pull the material into
the machine. In this instance, introducing material into the infeed
funnel up to the feedworks, and then pulling back on the
feedworks handle to insert the material further in will solve this
problem. Once the material is placed further in, release the
handle and the material will be pulled into the chopper.
06.G Timed Shutoff
If equipped with a Timed shutoff starter, the chopper will shut
down automatically after the allotted time has expired.
