For the new user or owner The wood chippers are designed to chip scrap wood, small trees, bushes, branches and other wood waste. The broken-off material is good enough to be composted or to be reused in various ways. The owner or user is responsible for reading this manual and the training of all other operators before they start working with the machine.
Length of the power take-off The drive shaft for the power take-off is supplied together with the machine. As a consequence of the various three-point linkages that are currently available, the drive shaft may be too long for most machines or too short for other machines. It is extremely important that the drive shaft can slide in and out freely and does not touch the ground in the work range.

10. Start the machine: Start the tractor engine. Set the throttle to the lowest stationary speed. Allow the power take-off control to run slowly while the engine idles. Slowly increase the engine speed to nominal. In relation to the manual feed model, you start feeding material into the hopper. In relation to the hydraulic feed model: Position the hydraulic lever of the tractor in the locked position.

METRIC TORQUES Torque * Bolt diameter “A” 10.9 (N·m) (lb-ft) (N·m) (lb-ft) 1050 1495 1103 2100 1550 2600 1917 3675 2710 The aforementioned torques apply to non-lubricated or non-oiled screw threads and heads unless stated otherwise. Bolts of fastening screws may therefore not be lubricated or oiled unless stated otherwise in this manual. If locking elements are used, the torque must be increased by 5%.
Torque for hydraulic fittings Tightening flange pipe fittings* Check the flange and flange seat for damage that may cause leaks. Align the pipe with the fitting before tightening it. Lubricate the connection and fasten the union nut manually until it is in its correct position. Use two wrenches to prevent the pipe(s) from turning.
TROUBLESHOOTING Problem Possible cause Solution Obstructed discharge Fasten it. The rotor is not turning. Obstructed rotor Sharpen or replace the blades. Broken off shear pin Replace the shear pin. Blades are blunt. Sharpen the blades. Blade under the incorrect Sharpen the blades using the specified angle. Slow insertion angle: erroneous angle.
