Technical Specifications

Assembling

The woodchipper is supplied fully assembled.
The woodchipper is mounted on the tractor’s three-point hitch and connected to the tractor’s PTO shaft.
Lubricate well with grease all moving parts before using for first time.

Use

Since the woodchipper functions via power transmission from the tractor, the blade rotor starts automatically when the tractor starts.
Procedure in case of trapped material
Immediately stop the tractor and disconnect the PTO. Wait until all moving parts have stopped moving. The feed chute can now be reversed to free the trapped material. Alternatively, the cover to the blade shaft can be opened.

Maintenance

The blade shaft must be lubricated with suitable oil every 8 operating hours.
Bolts, nuts, etc., must be checked and tightened every 20 operating hours or as required.

Storage

The machine must be cleaned and all metal parts lubricated with a light oil to prevent rust formation.

Transport

The machine must be made secure against tipping over when transported. If the machine is transported in the tractor’s suspension, if required, the feed chute can be set to the transport position, so that the machine takes up less space on the road. However, this is not necessary in relation to the machine’s stability.

Disposal

The woodchipper must be dismantled and the individual material disposed of in accordance with applicable local regulations.
