Woods 8000 Operator's Manual page 17

NOTE: The disk sensor and feed roller control bar
sensors must be set to the correct clearance or the
chipper will not operate. Set the clearance to 1/32".
The sensor will flash with every rotation of the chip-
per disk when the clearance is set correctly.
FEED ROLLER SPEED CONTROL
With the feed roller speed control the operator can
adjust the speed of the feed roller, allowing the opera-
tor to have better control of how material is fed into the
chipper.
It is recommended that the feed roller operate at a
faster rate for smaller branches and at a slower rate for
larger branches.
