Safety
Safe working
Before using this machine, make sure that you are trained and fluent in its operation.
Know the location of and how to use all the safety features. Know how to control the
feed and stop the machine in an emergency. Be familiar with the hazards and safe
working practices to prevent injury and damage to property and machine. Also be
aware of the legal restrictions for personnel and towing with vehicles.
1. The minimum age for service personnel is 18 years. Personnel aged 16 can
use the machine for training under supervision by a suitably trained person of
18 years or over.
2. Operators and personnel working with this machine must not be under the
influence of alcohol, drugs or medication that would impair judgement,
concentration or reaction times. Excessive tiredness is also a risk.
3. In use, woodchip and debris are ejected with considerable force from the
chute and can travel up to 10m. Make sure the chute directs woodchip to a
safe location so that no one can be harmed or property damaged. Do not
allow discharge to be directed onto roads or public rights of way.
4. Maintain a 10m exclusion zone around the machine and clearly mark if in a
public area. Keep this area free of material build up.
5. Make sure the machine is on even, level and stable ground and cannot move
or topple when in use. Use wheel chocks if necessary.
6. Keep children and animals well away from the working area.
7. The machine operator must wear protective equipment:
a. Chainsaw safety helmet with mesh visor.
b. Correctly rated ear defenders.
c. Work gloves with elasticated wrist bands.
d. Steel toe cap boots.
e. Close fitting heavy duty non-snag clothing.
f. Protect breathing with a face mask if appropriate. Some plant material
can give off harmful dust and poisonous vapours. This may cause
respiratory problems or serious poisoning. Check the material to be
processed before starting.
g. DO NOT wear rings, bracelets, watches, jewellery or anything that
could be caught on the material being fed and draw you into the
machine.
8. All personnel operating or feeding material into the machine must wear heavy
duty non-snag clothing to help prevent being caught on material and drawn
into the machine. The feed mechanism of this machine uses high powered
hydraulic motors to drive sharp toothed rollers that feed material into the
cutting blades. DO NOT take risks with it. NEVER ASSIST ANY MATERIAL
INTO THE FEED ROLLERS WITH HANDS OR FEET. Use a push stick or
further long material if necessary.
P a g e | 7
9. Never climb onto the hopper area while the machine is in operation.
10. Material can be forcibly ejected from the hopper towards the operator. Ensure
full head and face protection is worn.
11. Very twisted material should be trimmed into manageable pieces. Failure to
do this can result in material extending outside the hopper, moving
aggressively side-to-side creating a hazard to the operator.
12. Do not try to force material over 150mm in diameter into the machine.
13. Carefully site the machine so operators can work furthest from any local
danger. For example, on a road side, place machine so operators work on
the verge and not in the road exposed to traffic.
Machine lifting
The lifting eye is designed for securely holding the machine’s weight only. Do not
use hoist hook directly on the lifting eye. Use a correctly rated safety shackle.
Inspect lifting eye before each use and do not use if damaged.

Machine control panel, start/stop & operating settings
This machine is fitted with an engine PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) system
that manages the engine, feed and all safety features. The control panel is located
on the right side panel (see Figure 1). Feed and engine speed are controlled with a
“No Stress” function ensuring that cutting conditions are kept within optimum limits.
This maximises throughput while minimising jams and blockages. There will be
times when material is being cut and the feed will momentarily stop until engine
speed increases. At this point, the feed will start without warning. Service warnings
shown below will be displayed at certain intervals. The engine will not start until OK
is pressed.
First 20 Hour Warning: "Change Hydraulic Oil Filter"
Every 20 Hour Warning: "Blade and Machine check required see manual"
50 Hour Service Warning: "1st Full Service recommended"

Feed speed adjustment
Figure 4
The feed speed can be adjusted to suit the material being chipped see Figure . Turn
dial to align number with pip. Set feed speed so that the No-Stress operates as little
as possible, this will give the highest throughput. When feeding Leylandii or leafy
material, set feed roller speed to 4.5.
Feed jam & blockages
Be aware that whatever is fed into the machine has to come out of the chute.
Always monitor the state of chip flow out of the chute. If this stops, STOP FEEDING
MATERIAL IMMEDIATELY. Continuing to feed material will further compact a
blockage and make it more difficult to clear.
If the chipping chamber or chute become blocked:
1. Stop the engine and remove ignition key.
2. Remove chute and check that it is clear.
3. If the chipping chamber is blocked, open the engine cover, then chipping
chamber cover. DO NOT REACH INTO THE CHIPPING CHAMBER WITH
HANDS. Beware that the flywheel within the chipping chamber has two sharp
blades mounted on it and can move causing a serious injury risk. Wearing
protective gloves and using a piece of wood, carefully clean out the chipping
chamber.

If feed becomes jammed:
1. Stop the engine and remove ignition key.
2. Open engine and chipping chamber covers.
3. Release feed roller spring tension on both sides by slackening off the eye bolt
nuts and remove if necessary.
4. Insert feed lift tool and lift top feed roller to fully open.
5. Insert M12 screw into side of feed chamber and screw completely in. Lower
top feed roller onto the screw to secure in the open position.
6. There should now be access to the feed chamber. Beware that this is the
machines cutting zone. The top and bottom feed rollers have sharp teeth and
the flywheel cutting blades are not far from them. DO NOT PUT HANDS
INTO THIS AREA. Wearing protective gloves and using a piece of wood,
carefully clear jammed material inside feed chamber.
7. When clear, lift top feed roller via lifting tool, remove top feed M12 securing
screw, lower top feed roller and remove lifting tool.
8. Re-assemble feed tensioner springs and replace covers.

Routine maintenance
The following must be checked at least on a daily basis during use (also see Service
schedule):
Check hydraulic oil level. When the machine is new, the oil level may drop
during initial use. Regularly check and top-up until level settles. If a top up is
required, thoroughly clean around filler cap before removing to help prevent
debris falling into oil tank, top up as required and replace filler cap.
Grease machine. Every 8 hours, one pump of grease to each of the four
nipples at the central grease point manifold located near the control panel.
See Figure 1.
Check all fasteners are present and assembled to the correct torque.
Check proximity sensors on engine cover, removable hopper and trip bar are
not damaged and working correctly. The trip bar sensor is the most
vulnerable and if severely damaged could result in the trip bar not working.
Check drive belt tension and adjust as necessary.
Check pulleys and taper lock on flywheel shaft.
Check flywheel blades for damage and sharpness. Machine performance is
adversely affected if blades are blunt or damaged. Replace and sharpen
blades as required. Make sure that the blade seat is clean and free of
damage before reassembly. Shims are available to adjust for blade size
reduction after sharpening. Please refer to blade sharpening for size limits,
adjustment shims and setting. Ensure blade fasteners are correctly installed
and tightened to the appropriate torque. Check after 1 hours’ work then
weekly.
Anvil and side anvil are replaceable and double sided. Make sure that the
anvil seat is clean and free of damage before reassembly.
Exercise extreme care to avoid injury when removing and replacing blades
and anvils. The flywheel can turn creating crush and cutting points in and
around the chipping chamber.
P a g e | 17
Check all hydraulic hoses and fittings after 5 hours’ work. Beware of hydraulic
oil leaks, they can cause serious injury while the engine is running and the
system is under pressure. A leak can easily inject high pressure oil deep into
flesh and blood stream requiring immediate medical attention. DO NOT
CHECK FOR LEAKS WHILE THE PTO IS ENGAGED. Hoses to the feed
roller hydraulic motors are the most likely to become damaged as they are
constantly moving during use. If hoses are replaced, all seals must be
replaced at the same time.
Check top and bottom feed motor bracket bolts weekly.

Blade sharpening
For optimum performance, blades need to be kept sharp. Minimum safe blade size
after sharpening as shown. After sharpening, the blade gap must be re-set by using
a blade shim as shown. Shims are available in thicknesses of 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2 & 2.5mm
as part number 12-03-093. On no occasion must more than one shim be fitted under
each blade at any time. A gap of 1mm must be set from the inner blade tip to anvil
after sharpening by placing an appropriate shim under the blade (also see flywheel
assembly). The outer blade tip is automatically set due to the anvil being set at an
angle to the blade. With 1mm at the inner blade tip, the outer blade tip should be
3mm from the anvil as shown.
The complete blade fastener set must be replaced every time blades are changed.
DO NOT Lubricate the Bolts when fitting.

Drive belt tension
Both Hydraulic pump and flywheel V belts must be checked for tension and
condition. If any belt shows signs of wear, surface damage, shredding, excessive
glazing, or have been stretched to their limit, they must be replaced. Multiple belt
drives must have all belts replaced at the same time. Belts that are too slack will
cause poor cutting performance, excessive belt and pulley wear.
All drive belts are located under the engine cover as shown in and tension checked
at arrows as shown. Check and set tension as follows:
1. Slacken clamp screw(s) or nut.
2. Hydraulic pump adjuster screw requires its lock nut to be slackened.
3. Turn adjuster nut or screw to tension belt until 4.5Kg force at the belt longest
centre span deflects by 6mm. Can be approximated by firmly gripping belt
between finger and thumb and twisting. The belt should not be able to be
rotated more than 90°.
4. Tighten all lock nuts, nuts and clamp screws.
5. Run machine and test.
6. Check belt tension.
