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.

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. Un-

authorized 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.

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.

Page 10

2.3 SAFETY TRAINING

2.4 SAFETY SIGNS

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:

1. Keep safety signs clean and legible at all times.

2. Replace safety signs that are missing or have become illegible.

3. Replaced parts that displayed a safety sign should also display the current sign.

4. Safety signs displayed in Section 3 each have a part number in the lower right hand corner. Use this part number when ordering replacement parts.

5. Safety signs are available from your authorized Distributor or Dealer Parts Department or the factory.

How to Install Safety Signs:

• Be sure that the installation area is clean and

dry.

• Be sure temperature is above 50°F (10°C).

• Determine exact position before you remove

the backing paper.

• Remove the smallest portion of the split backing paper.

a. Reads and understands the operator's

manuals.

b. Is instructed in safe and proper use.

5. Know your controls and how to stop tractor and machine quickly in an emergency. Read

this manual and the one provided with tractor.

6. 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.

• Align the sign over the specied area and

carefully press the small portion with the exposed sticky backing in place.

• Slowly peel back the remaining paper and

carefully smooth the remaining portion of the sign in place.

• Small air pockets can be pierced with a pin

and smoothed out using the piece of sign backing paper.

Page 11

2.5 PREPARATION

2.6 MAINTENANCE SAFETY

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 engine and machine.

2. Personal protection equipment including hard hat, safety glasses, safety shoes, and gloves are rec o mmended 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 PER M ANE N T HEA R ING LOSS!

Po wer equ ipme nt with or

without equipment attached can often be noisy enough to cause permanent, 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.

1. Good maintenance is your responsibility. Poor maintenance is an invitation to trouble.

2. Follow good shop practices.

- K eep s e r v i c e area clean and dry.

- Be sure electrical outlets and tools are properly grounded.

- Use adequate light for the job at hand.

3. Make sure there is plenty of ventilation. Never operate the engine of the engine in a closed building. The exhaust fumes may cause asphyxiation.

4. Before working on this machine, shut off the engine, set the clutch brake, and turn fuel valve off.

5. Never work on rotor unless it is disengaged from the PTO

6. Always use personal protection devices such as eye, hand and hearing protectors, when performing any service or maintenance work. Use heavy or leather gloves when handling blades or knives.

7. Where replacement parts are necessary for periodic maintenance and servicing, genuine factory replacement parts must be used to restore

your equipment to original specications. The

manufacturer will not be responsible for injuries or damages caused by use of unapproved parts and/or accessories.

8. A re extinguisher and rst aid kit should be kept

readily accessible while performing maintenance on this equipment.

9. Periodically tighten all bolts, nuts and screws and check t hat a l l electrical and fuel connections are properly secured to ensure unit is in a safe condition.

10. When completing a maintenance or service function, make sure all safety shields and devices are installed before placing unit in service.

4.2 MACHINE COMPONENTS

The Wallenstein Three Point Hitch Chipper-Shredder is a rotor with blades and knives for chipping and mulching wood. Feed hoppers move the wood material into the rotor for chipping and into the knives for shredding/mulching. The chipper rotor is designed with 2 blades to provide uniform chip size. The shredder rotor is equipped with

3 sets of swinging knives to provide a ne mulch. A chop block in the mulcher compartment shreds the material

as it moves through the machine. components.

The tractor provides rotational power through a PTO shaft and a set of V-belts on the front of the frame.

4.5 CONTROLS

Review this section to familiarize yourself with the location and function of each control before starting. Model BXM42 is illustrated but indicates the general location of the various controls.

The tractors PTO drives the rotor. When the PTO is engaged the rotor will also start to turn. There are no controls on the unit to engage/disengage the rotor, or control rotor speed.

If you are not familiar with the location of the PTO control on your tractor, review your tractor's Operator's Manual.

4.5.1 TRACTOR PTO CONTROL:

Always engage the PTO control slowly when the engine is running at low idle RPM. Disengage

the PTO control slowly at low RPM to allow the machine to slow and stop before engaging the PTO brake.

4.5.2 SHREDDER FEED GATE LEVER:

The shredder intake is designed with spring-

loaded gates to allow the material in the hopper to move into the shredder rotor and close when unattended. Levers on each side of the hopper control the position of the gate. Move the lever(s) down to allow the material to move into the shredding rotor. Release the lever(s) and the spring will move the gate into its closed position. BXM42 has dual gates, BXM32 has a single gate with levers on each side.

4.6 DRIVELINE DIMENSION

PTO driveline is supplied with the machine. To accommodate the variety of 3 point hitch geometry available today, the driveline may be too long for your machine. It is very important that the driveline be free to telescope and not bottom out when going through its working range. If the driveline bottoms out, the bearings on both the machine and tractor PTO shaft will be overloaded and will fail in a short time.

Chipper / Shredder

PTO shaft PTO

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 / shredder to the tractor

(see section 4.7) but do not attach the driveline.

c. Raise the machine until the input shaft is level

with the tractor PTO shaft.

d. Measure the dimension between the lock-

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

e. Measure the same dimensions on the com-

pressed driveline.

f. If the compressed driveline dimension ex-

ceeds the machine dimension, the driveline will have to be cut.

2. When cutting the driveline, follow this proce-

dure:

a. Subtract the machine dimension "A" from the

uncut driveline dimension "B", see g 5. This

dimension determines how much the shaft needs to be shortened.

b. To be sure the shaft doesn't bottom out, add

one inch (25 mm) to the cut off dimension to

determine (C) the nal 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.

7.2.2 DRIVELINE MAINTENANCE

The PTO driveline is designed to telescope to allow for dimensional changes as the machine goes through its operational range. A tubular guard encloses the driving components and is designed to turn relative to the driving components. The driveline 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. To maintain the driveline, follow this procedure:

1. Disengage the PTO, stop the engine, remove the ignition key and place it in your pocket and wait for all moving parts to stop

2. Remove the driveline from the machine.

3. Pull driveline apart.

4. Use a screwdriver to turn lock studs on each end. There are 2 studs per guard.

5. Pull the shaft out of the plastic tubular guard.

6. Use a solvent to clean the male and female portions of the telescoping ends.

7. Apply a light coat of grease to each end.

8. Use a solvent to wash the grooves on each end where the studs are located. Clean each end also.

9. Apply a light coat of grease to each groove.

10. Insert the shaft into its respective guard and align the studs with the holes.

11. Insert the studs through the holes and seat in the groove.

12. Turn each stud to secure guard to shaft.

13. Check that each guard turns freely on the shaft.

14. Assemble the driveline.

15. Check that the driveline telescopes easily.

16. Replace any components that are damaged or worn.

17. Install the driveline on the machine.

7.2.3 SHEAVE ALIGNMENT

Although model BXM32 is illustrated, the procedures can be applied to all models in this manual. A set of V belts transmits rotational power to the rotor. They must be kept properly tensioned and the sheaves aligned to obtain the expected performance and life. For maximum accuracy, have your sheaves aligned with a laser alignment tool. Contact your dealer for information

on laser alignment. Alignment may be carried out using a straight edge, to check the alignment, follow this procedure:

1. Disengage the PTO, stop the engine, remove the ignition key and place it in your pocket and wait for all moving parts to stop

2. Clear the area of bystanders, especially small children.

3. Remove the 4 bolts that secure the belt guard, and remove the guard.

4. Have a straight edge at least 30" (76cm) in length.

5. Place the straight edge along the face of the PTO sheave, and place the opposite end along the face of the rotor sheave.

6. Check to see if there is a gap between the straight edge and the clutch or the sheave, measure the gap (A).

7. If there is more than 1/32" (.8mm) offset then adjustment is required.

Sheave

Belt Drive

8. To adjust alignment:

a. Loosen the set screw on the bushing attached

to rotor sheave.

b. Remove the 3 hex bolts on the bushing, and

thread them into the tapped holes on the bushing.

c. Tighten the hex bolts progressively with 1/4

turns until bushing is free from the sheave taper.

d. Move the sheave to the required position

to align the belt.

e. If the offset is 1/32 (.8mm) or less then no

more adjustment is necessary.

f. Align drilled holes with tapped holes on the

sheave, replace and hand tighten the 3 hex bolts.

g. Tighten the set screw and recheck alignment.

h. Carefully tighten hex bolts progressively (1/4

turns) and uniformly until rmly seated.

i. Recheck belt tension and assemble belt

guards.

Note: movement of the

sheave may occur when

tightening the bushing, some

allowance for movement

may be required.

7.3 CHIPPER / SHREDDER CHAMBER:

The chipper / shredder chamber house the cutting / chopping blades, and need to be sharp for the ma-

chine 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. Twig Breaker & Chop Block should be inspected for gouges or damage.

7.3.1

ROTOR BLADES:

The rotor is equipped with 2 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. Disengage the PTO, stop the engine, remove the ignition key and place it in your pocket and wait for all moving parts to stop .

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

3. Manually rotate chipper rotor plate so that the blade is fully exposed

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

5. Rotate the blade and reinstall or replace with new or resharpened blade.

6. 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.

7. Tighten down bolts as specied in the torque chart

8. Repeat steps for remaining blades.

7.3.2 LEDGER BLADES:

The BXM series is equipped with a ledger (stationary) blade that acts as a shear for the moving rotor blades. The ledger blade is designed with 4 usable corners. 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. Disengage the PTO, stop the engine, remove the ignition key and place it in your pocket and wait for all moving parts to stop .

2. Remove the bolts that hold the ledger blade to the ledger mount, remove the blade.
