PN-51210 (Rev. 7/98)
O
PERATION
Telescoping Type
20 to 28 inches will leave
at least 4 inches overlap
Figure 6
CAUTION: Wear safety glasses at all times when operating the
machine. Do not wear loose fitting clothing. The operator should always
wear heavy boots, gloves, pants, and shirt. Use common sense and practice
safety to protect yourself from branches, sharp objects, and other harmful
objects.
NOTE: The heavy rotor continues to turn for some time after the tractor
has been shut off. The rotor is stopped when no noise or machine vibration
is present. Inserting a branch into the chipper chute to contact the blades
slows the rotor and shortens stopping time.
NOTE: Minimum and maximum telescoping on the PTO shaft is 20-28
inches. This will leave 4 inches overlap at maximum telescoping distance
(see figure 6).
1. Place tractor transmission in park or neutral and set parking brake.
Connect 3 pt. mounts between the chipper and tractor. Secure connec-
tions with snap pins. Adjust 3 pt. top link so chipper sits level.
2. Connect PTO shaft to tractor. Make sure you are using the correct RPM
machine. Do not operate machine at speeds different than specified on
shield.
3. Do not inspect or work on PTO drive area without first disengaging PTO
and shutting off tractor engine.
4. Start tractor engine and engage PTO drive clutch (see tractor owner's
manual). Increase engine speed to rated PTO RPM position.
