2�2 EQUIPMENT SAFETY GUIDELINES

1. Safety of the operator and bystanders is one of the main concerns in designing and developing equipment. However, every year many accidents occur which could have been avoided by a few seconds of thought and a more careful approach to handling equipment. You, the operator, can avoid many accidents by observing the following precautions in this section. To avoid personal injury or death, study the following precautions and insist those working with you, or for you to follow them.

2. In order to provide a better view, certain photographs or illustrations in this manual may show an assembly with a safety shield removed. However, equipment should never be used in this condition. Keep all shields in place. If shield removal becomes necessary for repairs, replace the shield prior to use.

3. Replace any safety sign or instruction sign that is not readable or is missing. Location of such safety signs is indicated in this manual.

4. Never use alcoholic beverages or drugs which can hinder alertness or coordination while using this equipment. Consult your doctor about using this machine while taking prescription medications.

5� Under no circumstances should young

children be allowed to work with this equipment� Do not allow persons to use or assemble this unit until they have read this manual and have developed a thorough understanding of the safety precautions and of how it works� Review the safety instructions

with all users annually.

6. This equipment is dangerous to children and persons unfamiliar with its operation. The operator should be a responsible, properly trained and physically able person familiar with machinery and trained in this equipment's operations. If the elderly are assisting with work, their physical limitations need to be recognized and accommodated.

7. Never exceed the limits of a piece of machinery. If its ability to do a job, or to do so safely, is in question - DON'T TRY IT�

8. Do not modify the equipment in any way. Unauthorized modication may result in serious injury or death and may impair the function and life of the equipment.

9. In addition to the design and conguration of this implement, including Safety Signs and Safety Equipment, hazard control and accident prevention are dependent upon the awareness, concern, prudence, and proper training of personnel involved in the operation, transport, maintenance, and storage of the machine. Refer also to Safety Messages and operation instruction in each of the appropriate sections of the tractor and machine manuals. Pay close attention to the Safety Signs afxed to the tractor and the machine.

10. Safe Condition involves the following procedure:

• disengage the PTO

• shut off the engine

• ensure all components have stopped moving

• remove and pocket the ignition key

• block & chock the tractor wheels

• and set rotor lock if required.

Safe Condition procedure should be performed before any service, maintenance work or storage preparation.

2�3 SAFETY TRAINING

1. Safety is a primary concern in the design and manufacture of our products. Unfortunately, our efforts to provide safe equipment can be wiped out by a single careless act of an operator or bystander.

2. In addition to the design and conguration of equipment, hazard control and accident prevention are dependent upon the awareness, concern, prudence and proper training of personnel involved in the operation, transport, maintenance and storage of this equipment.

3. It has been said, "The best safety feature is an informed, careful operator." We ask you to be that kind of an operator. It is the operator's responsibility to read and understand ALL Safety and Using instructions in the manual and to follow these. Accidents can be avoided.

4� Working with unfamiliar equipment can

lead to careless injuries� Read this manual before assembly or using, to acquaint yourself with the machine� If this machine is used by any person other than yourself, or is loaned or rented, it is the machine owner's responsibility to make certain that the operator, prior to using:

• Reads and understands the operator's

manuals�

• Is instructed in safe and proper use of

the equipment�

• Understands and knows how to perform

the "Safe Condition" procedure:

• disengage the PTO

• shut off the engine

• ensure all components have stopped moving

• remove and pocket the ignition key

• block & chock the wheels

• set rotor lock if required

5. Train all new personnel and review instructions

frequently with existing workers. Be certain only a properly trained and physically able person will use the machinery. A person who has not read and understood all using and safety instructions is not qualied to use the machine. An untrained operator exposes himself and bystanders to possible serious injury or death. If the elderly are assisting with the work, their physical limitations need to be recognized and accommodated.

6. Know your controls and how to stop tractor and machine quickly in an emergency. Read this manual and the one provided with tractor.

2�4 PREPARATION

1. Never use the machine until you have read and completely understand this manual, the tractor Operator's Manual and each of the Safety Messages found on the safety signs on the tractor and machine.

2. Personal protection equipment including hard hat, safety glasses, safety shoes, and gloves are recommended during assembly, installation, operation, adjustment, maintaining, repairing, removal, cleaning, or moving the unit. Do not allow long hair, loose tting clothing or jewellery to be around equipment.

3� PROLONGED EXPOSURE TO LOUD NOISE

MAY CAUSE PERMANENT HEARING LOSS!

Power equipment with or without equipment attached can often be noisy enough to cause permanent or partial hearing loss. We recommend that you wear hearing protection on a full-time basis if the noise in the Operator's position exceeds 80db. Noise over 85db on a long-term basis can cause severe hearing loss. Noise over 90db adjacent to the Operator over a long-term basis may cause permanent, total hearing loss. NOTE: Hearing loss from loud noise (from tractors, chain saws, radios, and other such sources close to the ear) is cumulative over a lifetime without hope of natural recovery.

4. Clear working area of stones, branches or hidden obstacles that might be hooked or snagged, causing injury or damage.

5. Use only in daylight or good articial light.

6. Be sure machine is properly mounted, adjusted

and in good operating condition.

7. Ensure that all safety shielding and safety signs are properly installed and in good condition.

10

4�5 PTO DRIVELINE

A PTO drive line is supplied with the machine. To accompany the variety of 3 point hitch geometry available today, the drive line can be too long for most machines or too short for others. It is very important that the drive line be free to telescope but not to bottom out when going through its working range. If the drive line bottoms out, the bearings on both the machine and tractor PTO shaft will be overloaded and fail in a short time.

1� To determine the proper length of the drive

line, follow this procedure:

a. Clear the area of bystanders, especially small

children.

b. Attach the chipper to the tractor (see section

4.6) but do not attach the drive line.

c. Raise the machine until the input shaft is level

with the tractor PTO shaft.

d. Measure the dimension (A) between the

locking grooves on the tractor PTO shaft and the machine input shaft.

e. Measure the same dimensions on the

compressed drive line.

f. If the compressed drive line dimension (B)

exceeds the machine dimension (A), the drive line will have to be cut.

2� When cutting the drive line, follow this

procedure:

a. Subtract the machine dimension (A) from the

uncut drive line dimension (B) or (B-A=C).

b. Add one inch (25 mm) to dimension (C) to

determine the cut off dimension.

c. Use a hacksaw to cut dimension (C) from both

ends. Cut both the plastic tubes and the metal cores.

d. Use a le to remove the burrs from the edges

that were cut.

e. Assemble the 2 ends of the shaft.

f. Make sure the shaft can telescope freely. If it

does not, separate the 2 parts and inspect for burrs or cuttings on the shaft ends. Be sure it telescopes freely before installing.

g. Raise and lower the chipper. A correctly sized

shaft should not bottom out or come apart.

NOTE

Telescoping shaft Should overlap at

least 6" under load.

• Disengage the PTO

• Shut off the engine

• Correct emergency situation before restarting engine and resuming work�

Caution: Be aware that the rotor

will continue to turn for a few

minutes after the PTO has been disengaged. Wait for all parts to stop moving before attempting to access the machine in any way.

28

4�10�4 CHIPPING OPERATION

The BX Wood Chipper is a strong, rugged machine that is built to a straight-forward design which provides consistent chipping of logs.

Capacity:

3" (8cm) in diameter for the BX32S.

5" (13cm) in diameter for the BX52S.

7" (17cm) in diameter for the BX72S.

10" (25cm) in diameter for the BX102S.

Always wear personal protective equipment (PPE) whenever operating the machine. This includes but is not limited to a hard hat, protective shoes with slip resistant soles, protective goggles or face shield, heavy gloves, hearing protection and protective clothing.

Do not place metal, bottles, cans, rocks, glass or other solid material into the wood chipper. If something like this gets into the machine, stop the machine immediately for a detailed inspection.

If opening up any guards for inspection, always put the machine in Safe Condition:

• disengage the PTO

• shut off the engine

• ensure all components have stopped moving

• remove and pocket the ignition key

• block & chock the wheels

• set rotor lock if required.

Inspect machine for damaged or loosened parts, repair or replace parts as required before resuming work.

a. Delimb large branches and trees, the limbs

on the branches may catch the roller feed control bar as they pass by them and shut the rollers off.

b. Be aware of the size and shape of the

material, crotchety, curved branches and logs can move in unpredictable ways as they pass through the feed rollers. Large curved pieces should be cut to smaller straighter sections.

c. Hold small diameter branches / limbs together

in a bundle and feed in simultaneously.

d. Place short branches on top of longer ones,

to avoid reaching into the hopper.

e. Before beginning to feed, ensure the motor

is warmed up and the rotor is up to speed.

f. Move the feed control bar into the feed

position to start the feed rollers turning

g. Stand to the side of the feed table, slowly slide

material into the feed table and move it into the feed rollers.

h. Do not force the material into the rollers, as

the material engages the roller, the roller will draw the material in.

i. Ensure your wood chip pile is contained and

doesn't affect the immediate work area.

4�10�5 OPERATING HINTS:

1. Delimb branches that are greater than 1" (2.5cm) before you feed them into the hopper. This will prevent the tree from jamming in the feed hopper and prevent feeding.

2. When feeding large bushy branched material, have some one positioned at the roller control bar to keep branches from hitting the roller control bar and deactivating the rollers.

3. Line up the chipper to the material to feed straight in to the feed table, loading will be easier and limit the amount of material handling time.

4. Keep the working area clean and free of debris to prevent slipping or tripping. Operate only on level ground.

Caution: Do not reach into the feed hopper at any time, use a stick or branch

to push any piece of material into the rollers that does not move on its own. If the jam persists then stop the engine and wait for the rotor to stop and then clear the jam.

Do not chance getting your hand caught in the rollers�

7�2 MAINTENANCE

By following a careful service and maintenance program for your machine, you will enjoy many years of trouble-free operation. Put the machine in Safe Condition before working on this machine:

• disengage the PTO

• shut off the engine

• ensure all components have stopped moving

• remove and pocket the ignition key

• block & chock the wheels

• set rotor lock if required

7�2�1 DRIVELINE MAINTENANCE

The PTO drive line is designed to telescope to allow for dimensional changes as the machine goes through its operational range.

A heavy duty plastic tubular guard encloses the driving components and is designed to turn relative to the driving components.

The drive line should telescope easily and the guard turn freely on the shaft at all times. Annual disassembly, cleaning and lubrication is recommended to insure that all components function as intended.

Ensure that the universal joints are lubricated, inspect and lubricate every 8 hours.

When reassembling the driveline, ensure that the driveline is assembled "in phase", to avoid unnecessary vibration when the machine is running.

7�2�2 SHEAR PIN:

The PTO drive line is designed with a shear pin at the input yoke to prevent overloading the drive system. Remove the broken parts from the yoke when the pin shears and replace with genuine Wallenstein parts. The drive system is designed to function well without failing the shear pin. If it does fail, generally it is being fed too fast or something very hard has been jammed into the rotor or between the blades. Always unplug the system and determine the cause of the problem and correct it before resuming work. Shear pin replacements are available from your dealer

7�2�5 ROTOR BLADES:

The rotor and ledger blades need to be sharp for the Chipper to perform as expected. Periodic inspection

is recommended. Keep the blades sharp to reduce the amount of power required during operation. Watch the sharpness of the blades when processing material with a lot of sand, soil or dirt mixed with it. Reverse or sharpen the blades if the cutting edge becomes dull.

The rotor is equipped with 4 blades spaced evenly to keep the rotor in balance. If one needs to be

changed, the one opposite should also be changed.

It is recommended that the rotor blades be removed from the rotor when sharpening. Always sharpen

the blades at a 45° angle to provide the best cutting effect as it meets the stationary blade. Be sure to tighten the blade mounting bolts to their specied torque when re-installing the blades to the rotor.

1. Ensure the machine is set in Safe Condition (See Section 7.2).

2. Remove the bolt that secures the

upper rotor housing, and carefully open the rotor housing.

3. With care, slowly rotate chipper rotor plate until the rotor lock lines up with lock hole in the rotor plate.

4. Engage the rotor lock, and ensure it snaps into the lock hole. Do not allow the rotor lock to snap into the chipper blade slot, damage to the blade may result.

Caution: Avoid Serious Injury

The rotor is very heavy, turn

rotor slowly and be aware of hand positioning: avoid getting pinched or wedged between the lower rotor housing and rotor.

5. Remove the bolts that hold the rotor blade to the rotor, remove the blade.

6. Rotate the blade and reinstall or replace with new or re-sharpened blade.

7. Ensure the blade is properly oriented, with the leading edge out. The blade is designed to t into the rotor one way only. See diagram for proper installation.

8. Tighten bolts as specied in the torque chart.

9. Repeat steps for remaining blades.

7�2�6 LEDGER BLADES:

Each machine is equipped with a ledger (stationary) blade that acts as a shear for the moving rotor

blades.

The ledger blade is located on the lower rotor housing, mounted on slotted holes for adjustment. There

are 4 usable corners on the blade, when the corner facing the rotor blade rounds over, remove the blade and re-install with a different corner facing the rotor blade. It is recommended that the clearance between the rotor and stationary blades be set and maintained at 1/32 to 1/16" (.76 - 1.52 mm) to obtain the best performance.

1. Ensure the machine is set in Safe Condition (See Section 7.2).

2. Remove the 4 bolts that hold the ledger blade to the ledger mount.

3. Carefully remove the blade, pull it down and slightly to the side to clear the axle.

4. Rotate the blade and replace or replace with new or re-sharpened blade.

5. Hand tighten the bolts.

6. Set the clearance between the

ledger and rotor blades using the ledger adjuster: loosen the nuts on the adjuster and move the ledger to the correct clearance.

7. Clearance settings should be set at 1/32 - 1/16" (.76 - 1.52 mm).

For fast and easy setting, use the chipper clearance setting gauge, included with your BX CHIPPER

8. Ensure you move both adjusters evenly.

9. Tighten adjuster nuts, then tighten ledger blade bolts. Tighten as specied in the torque chart.

7�2�7 LEDGER BLADE ADJUSTING TOOL:

The ledger blade adjusting tool is located on the lower rotor housing. (Tool not included with BX32 series) As the blade wears, it can be rotated or ipped to use a fresh corner. When the blade is moved, it must have its clearance settings adjusted to maintain its shearing efciency.

The best way to ensure you have the correct clearance is to use the Wallenstein Ledger Adjusting Tool. It is the correct thickness to set the recommended clearance between the rotor and stationary blades which should be set and maintained at 1/32 to 1/16 " (.76 - 1.52 mm) to obtain the best performance.

Depending on your chipper model, you may or may not have adjusting bolts along with mounting nuts and bolts to hold in your ledger blade. In either case use of the ledger adjusting tool will be the same.

Follow the directions in your owners manual for specic details for your machines ledger blade maintenance.

1. Ensure the machine is set in Safe Condition (See Section 7.2).

2. Perform the ledger blade maintenance as described in the owners manual.

3. Remove the bolt that secures the upper rotor housing, and carefully open the rotor housing.

4. Carefully move the rotor so the a rotor blade overlaps the ledger blade.

5. Loosen the fasteners and / or adjusters and move the ledger away from the rotor blade.

6. Insert the gauge between the ledger blade and rotor blade

7. Move the ledger blade in towards the rotor blade.

8. Ensure you move the ledger evenly, so the entire edge of the ledger is in contact with the gauge.

9. Hand tighten the fasteners, the gauge should drag slightly between the blades

10. With the gauge in place:

a. Tighten adjuster nuts rst, (if your model has them)

b. Tighten ledger blade bolts.

c. Tighten all fasteners as specied in the torque chart.

11. Check that the gauge still drags slightly when you remove it.

Ledger blade is now correctly adjusted and is ready for service.

It is recommended to occasionally check the blade clearance per your chippers maintenance schedule.
