CHIPPING

During chipping, please
observe the following safe-
!
ty instructions:
DANGER!
1. Always read the operating and safety
instructions of the used feed unit before
operating the chipper.
2. The danger zone of the chipper is approx.
20 m.
3. Chipper with grab loader feed: During
operation, neither the operator nor other
people may stay in the danger zone. The
chipper is operated from the driver seat in
the tractor's safety cab. Before engaging
the tractor PTO
feed unit, make sure no one is in the
chipper's danger
ration, the danger zone must be sa-
feguarded to
people from entering the danger zone If
necessary, operation must be interrupted.
Turn off the feed unit and disengage the
tractor's PTO before you leave the safe-
ty cab. It is strictly prohibited to manually
load a chipper which is designed for grab
loader feed!
4. The operator of a chipper with grab loader
feed must wear an ear protection, cut resis-
tant safety boots and required protective
clothing.
5. Never hold any part of the body into the
feed hopper or into another part of the
chipper with the machine running.
6. Before feeding in the material to be
chipped, ensure that the wood fed into the
chipper is free from metal or soil (such as
nails, stones, etc.).
7. Do not use the chipper at temperatures
below -20 °C. This is to avoid damage due
to brittleness – especially of the knives –
caused by the cold.
8. Avoid chipping wood that is frozen solid;
otherwise, excessive stress will be exerted
on the chipper and self-feeding will be
impaired.

heating. Regularly, check the temperatu-
re of the bearings. Pay special attention to
careful maintenance, and keep the chipper
free from dust. If the chipper starts smo-
king, pour water into the feed hopper.
