Emergency stop
The C65 has two emergency stops on the top of the inlet chute. The emergency stops act as an immediate kill switch to the engine.
It does not immediately stop the rotor from spinning. The rotor will continue to spin for some time due to its rotational inertia. The
feed roller, however, will stop almost immediately. To engage the emergency stop, push the red button. To disengage the
emergency stop, twist the red button clockwise until it releases outwards.
Use it when foreign matter such as sand, stones or metal enter the inlet chute
Use it in response to an immediate hazard/danger to an operator or onlooker
After the rotor comes to a halt, follow the normal shutdown procedure in addition to
using the emergency stop
Inspect the machine before resetting the emergency stop
Under normal conditions, do NOT use the emergency stop in place of the regular
shutdown procedure
Bottom bump bar (optional machine feature)
The C65 may be fitted with a bottom bump bar which acts as an extra safety feature in addition
to the emergency stops. Pushing the bump bar in immediately stops the movement of the feed
roller. After activating the bump bar, the movement of the feed roller may be reset by setting
the feed roller control bar to neutral, then back to feeding. The bump bar is designed to be
activated by pushing against it with your hand, knee, foot or other body part in the event in
which an operator is caught by in-feeding branches.
