SAFE WORKING NOISE TEST MACHINE: TW 18/100G NOTES: TESTED CHIPPING 50 mm x 50 mm CORSICAN PINE 1.5m IN LENGTH Noise levels above 80dB (A) will be experienced at the working position. Wear ear protection at all times to prevent possible damage to hearing. All persons within a 4 metre radius must also wear good quality ear protection.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS SAFE TRANSPORTATION WHEN towing a chipper the maximum speed limit is 60 mph. rough or bumpy road surfaces reduce speed accordingly to protect your machine from unnecessary vibration. WHEN towing off road be aware of objects that may catch the chipper undergear. WHEN towing off road ensure inclination is not excessive.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS DELIVERY All Timberwolf 18/100G machines have a full pre - delivery inspection before leaving the factory and are ready to use. Read and understand this instruction manual before attempting to operate the Chipper. In particular, read pages 5-7 which contain important health and safety information and advice.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS STOPPING THE ENGINE Move throttle lever to “slow” Push “on/off” rocker switch position to “off” position. Close fuel shutoff valve. For more detailed information refer to the Engine Owner’s Manual DAILY CHECKS BEFORE STARTING LOCATE the machine on firm level ground. CHECK the feed funnel to ensure no objects are inside.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS BLADE WEAR The most important part of using a wood chipper is keeping the cutter blades sharp. The 18/100G is fitted with two 17 mm (7") blades. They are 42 mm wide when new. A new blade should chip between 5 and 10 tonnes of material before sharpening. This figure will be drastically reduced by feeding the machine with stony, sandy or muddy material.
MAINTENANCE THAT SHOULD BE APPLIED TO ANY PIECE OF MECHANICAL EQUIPMENT AND THE CHASSIS TO WHICH IT IS MOUNTED. AUTHORISED TIMBERWOLF SERVICE AGENTS ARE FULLY TRAINED IN ALL ASPECTS OF TOTAL SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE OF TIMBERWOLF WOODCHIPPERS. YOU ARE STRONGLY ADVISED TO TAKE YOUR CHIPPER TO AN AUTHORISED AGENT FOR ALL BUT THE MOST ROUTINE MAINTENANCE AND CHECKS.
Repeat 25 & 50 hour service. Change spark plugs. NOTE: Your Timberwolf woodchipper is covered by a full 12 months parts and labour warranty. Subject to correct maintenance and proper machine usage, the bearings are guaranteed for 12 months regardless of hours worked by the machine. In conditions of 'heavy usage' - i.e. in excess of 500 hours per year - it is recommended that the bearings are changed annually to ensure that the machine retains optimum working performance.
Inspect the lifting eye prior to each use - DO NOT USE IF DAMAGED. CHECK FITTINGS The Timberwolf TW 18/100G is subject to large vibrations during the normal course of operation. Consequently there is always a possibility that nuts and bolts will work themselves loose. It is important that periodic checks are made to ensure the security of all fasteners.
NOTE: There will normally be a rapid drop in tension during run-in period for new belts. When new belts are fitted, check the tension every 2 - 3 hours and adjust until the tension remains constant. Belt failures due to lack of correct tensioning will not be covered under your Timberwolf warranty. Remove belt guard.
– in these situations they are duly authorised to transfer any remaining warranty period to their first end user. Any warranty offered by the Timberwolf Dealer beyond the original 12 month period will be wholly covered by said Dealer.
