5.9 Chipping Operation
The Wallenstein wood chipper is a strong, rugged machine that
is built to provide consistent chipping of logs up to 7" (17 cm) in
diameter.
WARNING!
Risk of serious injury or death. Keep hands, feet
and clothing away from feed rollers when the
chipper is operating. Do not climb onto the feed
table or hopper.
W023
WARNING!
Never reach into the feed hopper. Doing so risks
hands getting caught. Use a stick or branch to
push in any material that does not move on its
own.
If jammed, stop the engine, wait for the rotor to
stop, then clear the jam.
W004
IMPORTANT! Do not put metal objects, bottles, cans, rocks,
glass or other foreign material into wood chipper. If such
items happen to get into the chipper, stop machine and turn
engine off. Wait for all moving parts to stop before removing
material. Inspect machine for damaged or loose parts
before resuming work.
• De-limb large branches and trees. The limbs on large
branches sticking out of the feed hopper may catch the
roller feed control bar, and shut the rollers off.
• Be aware of the size and shape of the material.
Complicated, curved branches and logs can move in
unpredictable ways as they pass through the feed rollers.
Large curved pieces should be cut to smaller straighter
sections.
• Hold small diameter branches together in a bundle and feed
in together.
• Place short branches on top of longer ones to avoid
reaching into the hopper.
