1.1 sAfETY ALERT sYMboL
The Owner/Operator's manual uses this symbol to alert you of potential hazards. Whenever you see this symbol, read and obey the safety message that follows it. Failure to obey the safety message could result in personal injury, death or property damage.
cAuTIoN
Indicates an imminently hazardous situation that, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.
WARNINg
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation that, if not avoid­ed, could result in death or serious injury.

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation that, if not avoid­ed, may result in minor or moderate injury.
1.2 EMIssIoN INfoRMATIoN
WARNINg To ALL cALIfoRNIA AND oThER sTATEs opERATINg ouTDooR poWER EQuIpMENT
under California Law and under the laws of several other states, you are not permitted to operate an internal combustion engine using hydrocarbon fuels on any forest covered, brush covered
or grass covered land or on land covered with grain, hay or other ammable agricultural crops,
without an engine spark arrester in continuous effective working order. The engine on your power equipment, like most outdoor power equipment, is an internal com-
bustion engine that burns gasoline (a hydrocarbon fuel). Therefore, your power equipment must
be equipped with a spark arrester mufer in continuous effective working order. The spark ar-
rester must be attached to the engine exhaust system in such a manner that ames or heat from the system will not ignite ammable material.
Failure of the owner/operator of the equipment to comply with this regulation is a misdemeanor under California law and may also be
a violation of other state and/or federal regulations, laws, ordinances, or codes. Contact your local re marshal or forest service for specic information about which regulations apply in your area.
The standard mufer installed on the engine is not equipped with a spark arrester. One must be added before using this
machine in an area where a spark arrester is required by law. Contact the local authorities if these laws apply to you. See your
authorized engine dealer for spark arrester options.

ASSEMBLY
Hydraulic uid drives the feed roller. The hydraulic pump is di­rect or belt driven from the engine or disk rotor.
The hydraulic pump requires premium hydraulic uids contain­ing high quality rust, oxidation, and foam inhibitors. These in­clude premium turbine oils, API CD engine oils per SAE j183,
M2C33F or G automatic transmission uids meeting Allison C-3
or Caterpillar TO-2, and certain specialty agricultural tractor u-
ids. If system has no oil, follow this startup procedure:
Clean all system components (reservoir, fittings, etc.) before
1.
starting the hydraulic pump. After filtering the hydraulic fluid, fill the hydraulic reservoir.
2.
2.6 fILLINg ThE TANk
DANgER
Fuel is highly ammable and its vapors are ex­plosive. To prevent personal injury or property damage:
Store fuel only in approved containers, in well ventilated, unoccupied buildings, away from
sparks or ames. Do not ll the fuel tank while the engine
is hot or running. Spilled fuel could ignite if it comes in contact with hot parts or sparks from ignition. Do not start the engine near spilled fuel. Never use fuel as a cleaning agent.
Fill the inlet line leading from the reservoir to the pump before
3. start-up. Loosen the fitting at the pump on this inlet line until oil bleeds out.
Start the engine and run at the lowest possible RPM.
4. As you purge air from the unit, the oil level in the reservoir
5. will drop and bubbles may appear in the fluid. Refill the reservoir as necessary.
Run the feed roller in both directions for several minutes until
6. any remaining air purges from the unit. Refill the reservoir as necessary.
Shut down the engine, check for and correct any fluid leaks,
7. and check the reservoir level. Add fluid if necessary. The hydraulic pump is now ready for operation.
For best results use only clean, fresh, fuel. Purchase fuel in small quantities and store in clean, approved containers.

4.7 chIppER fEED coNTRoLLER
The chipper is equipped with a pre-programmed feed controller. The controller is located on the chipper housing above the chip­per chute. The controller serves a variety of functions includ­ing monitoring chipper disk RPM, controlling the feed roller, and providing routine maintenance alerts. The control bar located on the feed chute will control the feed roller.
The controller functions are further detailed below:
The controller operates the feed roller. The controller moni-
1. tors the RPMs of the chipper disk and won't operate until the engine is at full RPM. If the chipper disk drops below the normal operating RPM, the feed roller stops. When the chipper disk returns to the normal operating RPM, the feed roller will reengage.
NoTE
It is important to bring the engine to full RPM before oper­ating the chipper. The chipper feed controller requires the chipper disk to turn at full RPM in order to operate.
The controller also has a “try again” feature. The controller
2. monitors the hydraulic pressure of the feed roller. If it senses the level is too high (the feed roller becomes obstructed) the controller will reverse the feed roller , removing the material trying to be chipped. The controller will then engage the roller into the forward position and try to feed the material again. If this cycle continues, remove the obstruction manually. Trim or reposition material if necessary.
The feed controller is programmed to display the following

OPERATION
4.10 chIppINg guIDE
The chipper chips a variety of materials into a more readily de­composed or handled condition. The following guidelines can help you get started.
Run unit at full operating speed before starting to chip
1. material.
These machines are most effective when chipping material
2. 0-6" in diameter. Although this machine will accept mate­rial up to 8", you may see a reduction in performance when feeding material larger than 6".
Trim side branches that cannot be bent enough to feed into
3. the chipper chute. hold small diameter branches together in a bundle and feed in simultaneously.
Exclude pieces of metal, rocks, bottles, cans, and other
4. foreign objects when feeding chipable material into the machine.
Feed brush from the side of the chipper chute, rather than
5. from the front. Step aside to avoid being hit by the brush moving into the chipper.
Do not lean over the chipper chute to push objects into the
6. cutting device. use a push stick or brush paddle.
7.
Never use shovels or forks to feed brush. They can be chipped, are expensive to replace, and cause extensive damage. In addition, metal pieces can be ejected from the chipper chute and cause serious injury or death.
Never feed brush into the chipper chute with your feet.
8. Place limb, butt end first, into the chipper chute until it con-
9. tacts the chipper blades. The actual feed rate of the limb into the chipper will depend on the type of material fed and sharpness of the cutting blades.
Stop the material feeding and allow the engine to recover if
10. the engine slows to where it may stall.
Remove the branch and rotate it before reinserting it into the
11. chute if the chipper jams.
Alternately insert and retract the limb or insert continuously
12. at a rate that will not kill the engine.
Chipping dead, dry material will create heat and dull the
13. chipping blades quickly.
Alternate green material with dry material to lubricate the
14. chipping blades for longer life and better performance.
The chipping blades will become dull and will require periodic
15. sharpening. Refer to the Service and Maintenance section for sharpening instructions.

Chipping blades are sharp! use caution when working on machine to avoid injury.
The chipper blades will eventually become dull, making chipping
difcult and adding extra strain on the machine. Poor chipping
performance is usually a result of dull chipping blades. It is rec­ommended that the blades be sharpened every 5 - 15 hours or if your chipper’s performance has decreased. Check for the fol­lowing symptoms and sharpen the blades if needed.
Severe vibration when feeding material into the chipper.
1. Small diameter branches do not self-feed.
2. Chips discharge unevenly or have stringy tails, especially
3. when chipping green branches.
Before you sharpen the chipping blades, check for permanent damage. Replace the blade if:
There are cracks, broken corners or nicks greater than 1/8"

Never sharpen or grind the mounting surfaces of the blades.
1. This will cause the edge to roll and the blade will be damaged, resulting in poor chipping performance.
Regrind the angled edge of the chipping blades to 45 degrees
2. (Figure 5.3).
The blades can be ground on a bench grinder or by a pro-
3. fessional.
Make sure some type of fixture is used to correctly hold the
4. blade at the proper angle.
Be careful when grinding so that the blade does not become
5. overheated and change color. This will remove the heat­treated properties.
use short grinding times and cool with water or some type
6. of liquid coolant.
Remove an equal amount off each blade to maintain disk
7. balance.
Small imperfections such as nicks and burrs on the flat side
8. of the blade will not affect the chipping performance of the machine.
For blades that have been repeatedly sharpened, ensure
9. that the sharpened surface extends past the chipping slot opening. If it does not extend past the opening, the blades should be replaced.
5.3.4 sETTINg chIppER bLADE cLEARANcE
The chipping blades should clear the chipper block located di­rectly under the chipper chute by 1/16 to 1/8 inch (Figure 5.4). To adjust the blade clearance, proceed as follows:
Remove the two 3/8" bolts securing the access cover to the
1. main frame. Tilt access cover over to allow access to anvil
Loosen the three 1/2 inch bolts that hold the chipper anvil
2. to the frame.
Measure the amount of clearance between chipping blades
3. and chipping anvil from inside of housing. Adjust inward or outward to desired measurement.
Check clearance on all the blades.
4. Tighten bolts on chipping anvil to 75 Ft-lb and resume op-
5. eration.
If chipping anvil edge is damaged or worn unevenly, remove
6. the three bolts holding the anvil and use one of the other three edges. Adjust for correct measurement.

5.9.1 hYDRAuLIc fLuID
The machine is tested before shipping. In order to test the ma-
chine, the uid levels are lled. However, before starting the ma-
chine, check the hydraulic uid level in the reserve tank.
WARNINg
Handle pressurized hydraulic uid carefully. Escaping pres­surized hydraulic uid may penetrate your skin causing seri-
ous injury. This uid may also be hot enough to burn. Serious
infection or reactions can develop if immediate proper medi­cal treatment is not administered.
Premium hydraulic uids containing high quality rust, oxidation,
and foam inhibitors are required. These include premium turbine oils, API CD engine oils per SAE j183, M2C33F or G automatic
transmission uids meeting Allison C-3 or Caterpillar TO-2, and certain specialty agricultural tractor uids.
5.9.2 hYDRAuLIc fEED MAINTENANcE
The hydraulic pump normally does not require regular uid changes. The system lter should be changed after 250 hours of operation or annual intervals. The uid and lter should be changed and system cleaned if the uid becomes contaminated with foreign matter (water, dirt, grease, etc.) or if the uid has
been subjected to temperature levels greater than the maxi­mum recommended.
There is a greaseable bearing on each side of the main jack shaft on the main hydraulic feed housing. Grease according to the Maintenance Schedule in Section 5.1.
5.9.3 hYDRAuLIc puMp sTART up
NoTE
hydraulic pressure controlled by the relief valve is factory set at 2500 PSI.
Follow this start-up procedure when starting a new installation or when restarting an installation in which the hydraulic pump has been removed from the system.
Before starting the hydraulic pump, make sure all system
1. components (reservoir, fittings, etc.) are clean.
Add recommended hydraulic fluid to the reservoir. The hy-
2. draulic fluid should be filtered before it enters the reservoir.
Run the unit and move the control bar in both directions for
3. several minutes until all air is purged from the unit. Refill the reservoir as necessary.
Shut down the engine, check for and correct any fluid leaks,
4. and check the reservoir level. Add fluid if necessary. The hydraulic pump is now ready for operation.
5.9.4 hYDRAuLIc oIL fILTER
using an oil filter wrench, turn the filter counterclockwise.
1. Once the filter becomes loose, turn it out the rest of the way
2. with your hand.

5.10 gREAsINg
Mounted bearings are pre-lubricated at our factory and are ready for operation.
LubRIcATIoN
Lubrication of bearings is determined by operating conditions and environment. Lubricate standard bearings with a LIThIuM based grease. Greasing intervals are shown on the next page using the following symbol:
Frequency (50 hours)
gREAsINg INTERvALs
Bearings in extreme environments will require more frequent greasing intervals.
gREAsE fILL AMouNTs
It is preferred that experience dictate ll amounts due to wide
variances in applications, greasing equipment and operat­ing conditions. In most cases, it is best to lubricate in small amounts, under low pressure, until a thin bead of fresh grease is visible at the seal lip area.
Care should be taken when greasing bearings to avoid overll-
ing. Overlling can lead to excessive heat and/or unseating of
the seals Grease should be introduced in small amounts and under light pressure. Whenever possible, the bearing should be rotated slowly while grease is added to ensure equal distribution throughout the raceways.
The chipper models described in this manual have several
bearings that require greasing. Refer to the gures on the next
page for greasing locations and intervals.
WARNINg
Polyuria and lithium based greases are not compatible. Mix­ing the two grease types may lead to premature failure of the chipper.
WARNINg
The use of pneumatic grease equipment is not recommend­ed unless low pressure is assured.
