Roller control boxes- a control box is located on either side of the feed funnel. Their function is to control the feed roller
whilst processing material. They do not control the main rotor.
RED SAFETY BAR = This is the large red bar that surrounds the feed tray and side of the feed funnel. The bar is spring
loaded and connected to a switch that will interrupt the power to the rollers. The switch is designed so that it only
activates if the bar is pushed to the limit of its travel. The rollers stop instantly, but can be made to turn again by
pressing either the GREEN FEED or BLUE REVERSE control buttons.
RED SAFETY BAR TEST
To ensure the safety bar is always operational it must be activated once before each work session. The rollers will
not function until the bar is activated. This procedure must be repeated each time the ignition is switched off.
GREEN BUTTON = forward feed - Push the button once - this activates
the rollers and will allow you to start chipping (if the rotor speed is
high enough).
BLUE BUTTON = reverse feed - allows you to back material out of the
rollers. The rollers will only turn in reverse as long as you keep
pressing the button.
All Timberwolf TW 160 machines have a full pre - delivery inspection before leaving the factory and are ready to use.
Read and understand this instruction manual before attempting to operate the chipper. In particular, read pages 5-7
which contain important health and safety information and advice.
