Shear

 

Pin:

 

The

 

PTO

 

driveline

 

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

 

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.

Unplugging:

 

Although

 

the

 

machine

 

is

 

designed

 

to

 

handle

 

a

 

wide

 

variety

 

of

 

material

 

without

 

any

 

problem,

 

occasionally

 

it

 

plugs.

 

When

 

the

 

machine

 

plugs,

 

follow

 

this

 

procedure

 

to

 

unplug:

 

a.

 

Clear

 

the

 

area

 

of

 

bystanders,

 

especially

 

small

 

children.

 

b.

 

Stop

 

the

 

engine,

 

remove

 

the

 

ignition

 

key

 

and

 

place

 

it

 

in

 

your

 

pocket

 

and

 

wait

 

for

 

all

 

moving

 

parts

 

to

 

stop

 

before

 

unplugging.

 

c.

 

Pull

 

the

 

material

 

out

 

of

 

the

 

feed

 

hopper

 

or

 

reverse

 

the

 

hydraulic

 

feed

 

hopper.

 

Be

 

sure

 

all

 

the

 

material

 

is

 

out

 

and

 

nothing

 

is

 

jammed

 

or

 

wedged

 

between

 

the

 

input

 

opening

 

and

 

the

 

rotor.

 

d.

 

Pull

 

the

 

material

 

out

 

of

 

the

 

discharge

 

hood.

 

Use

 

a

 

stick

 

to

 

poke

 

loose

 

any

 

material

 

jammed

 

into

 

the

 

discharge

 

hood.

 

Do

 

not

 

allow

 

anything

Cleaning:

 

Clean

 

the

 

machine

 

frequently

 

to

 

prevent

 

a

 

buildup

 

of

 

dust,

 

chips

 

and

 

trash

 

on

 

the

 

frame.

 

A

 

clean

 

machine

 

reduces

 

the

 

chance

 

of

 

rusting.

 

22.

 

Curtains:

 

Each

 

feed

 

hopper

 

is

 

designed

 

with

 

an

 

internal

 

rubber/belting

 

curtain

 

to

 

prevent

 

chips

 

and

 

debris

 

from

 

coming

 

out

 

of

 

the

 

hopper

 

when

 

working.

 

Check

 

the

 

condition

 

of

 

the

 

curtain

 

each

 

day

 

prior

 

to

 

starting.

 

Replace

 

the

 

curtain

 

if

 

torn,

 

damaged

 

or

 

missing

 

to

 

minimize

 

the

 

chance

 

of

 

material

 

coming

 

out

 

of

 

the

 

feed

 

hopper.

 

23.

 

Sharpening

 

Blades:

 

The

 

rotor

 

and

 

stationary

 

blades

 

need

 

to

 

be

 

sharp

 

for

 

the

 

chipper

 

to

 

perform

 

as

 

expected.

 

It

 

is

 

recommended

 

that

 

the

 

rotor

 

blades

 

be

 

removed

 

from

 

the

 

rotor

 

when

 

sharpening.

 

Always

 

sharpen

 

the

 

blades

 

at

 

a

 

45°

 

angle

 

to

 

provide
