RED SAFETY BAR
Do not rely on the red bar to keep the roller
stationary if it is necessary to clear or touch the
roller. Always switch off the machine and remove
ignition key before approaching the roller.
There are two control boxes, located on either
side of the feed tray.
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.
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.
MANUAL CONTROLS
WARNING
DO NOT remove, jam, disable, bypass, override or otherwise
impede the effectiveness of the red safety bar.
