It is not allowed to transport any objects or loads on the chipper. Never couple another machine or implement to the chipper.
Storage Store the chipper always in a dry shelter to protect it against weather effects. During storage keep the switch key separately. Keep the stored machine beyond unauthorised persons reach. Before storage clean all parts of the machine. For cleaning use pressure water. Should the water be in the chipping device space, wipe it off and let it dry.

Avoid spillage at filling hydraulic oil. Use always a proper filling funnel. If any oil is spilled or overflowed then wipe off the spots immediately. Do not use petrol or similar inflammable matters as a cleaning agent. It is strictly forbidden to do any technical changes on the machine without any prior approval of the manufacturer in writing.
Coupling to Tractors This chipper can be coupled to a tractor which is equipped with a three-point hitch, category I or II and a PTO shaft. This hitch coupling can be done from outside by means of locking pins, Ø 27 mm for the category II or Ø 22 mm for the category I. The chipper is height-adjustable (according to tractor tires size) when inserting pins in other holes, see following figure.
When coupling the chipper to a tractor just let the lower drawbars go down in a similar height as the coupling pins are. Go back slowly with the tractor to the chipper hinge. While coupling the chipper no person is allowed to stand between the chipper and the tractor Lock the lower drawbars by means of locking pins in the chipper hinge.
Carry out a functional check of the safety frame of the loading chute. Set the lever in the infeed position and the loading rolls start turning (loading). By first pushing the frame the rolls should stop loading immediately (EMERGENCY STOP), the next pushing behind the chute edge (D) brings their reverse turning.
Page 26
When loading materials and during operation of the chipper the attendant should always stand in the attendant's place, see fig. Having turned the chipping device on wait for speed stabilization. With that you may soever increase or reduce the tractor PTO shaft speed. For correct chipping functions it is necessary if the tractor PTO shaft speed is 540 rpm(1000 rpm).
Page 27
Be careful while loading since materials may unexpectedly move in unwished directions. In case of two attendants it is necessary to make simple signals clear before working. During operation it is not easy to make any agreements because of operating noise. Observe the working area.

Blunt blades are evident on chipped edges which are not clean but broken. The optionally used breaker for crushing brings increased costs for energy consumption. The breaker should not be used for small and short wooden pieces, leaved or coniferous branch wood (with low weight) which may bring fouling due to shortage of woody mass.
Putting out of Operation If you want to stop chipping: In case of loaded material wait for emptying of the loading chute. Wait for emptying of the discharge duct. Turn the tractor PTO shaft off. Warning! The cardan shaft is equipped with a freewheel clutch. When turned off, the rotor of the chipping device runs out –...

Blade Grinding Blades, fitted on the chipping wheel, are double-sided, i.e. reversible if one side is blunt. Blades edge regrinding requires high demands for keeping cutting edge shape. While grinding it is necessary to keep its optimal geometry, see following figure. Proper shapes prolong blade service life.
Max. wear/grinding of cutting edge Chipping Adjustment Optimal operation of the chipping device requires proper setting of a clearance between the blade and the opposite cutting edge. This distance should be set (see following figure) and checked after fitting ground blades, then it grows with their wear and chipped branches may be squeezed between the blade and the opposite edge.
