TRACK CHIPPER FOREWORD
Congratulations on your purchase of a new Carlton®Professional Chipper! Carlton®has built
its reputation on the superior performance and reliability of their stump grinders and you can be
assured your new chipper has the same performance and reliability. A machine is not profitable
if it’s broken-down and we do our absolute best to help you avoid costly downtime. Each and
every machine has been over designed and overbuilt to ensure years and years of trouble-free
operation. In this, we take pride!
The Carlton®track chipper functions and performs the same as a standard tow-behind machine
but with a different mode of transport. This machine is designed to access those difficult-to-reach
jobs and includes wireless remote control. From the ground up, the components and weldments
are the strongest on the market.
Read the machine owner’s manual and this track operations supplement carefully and TAKE
RESPONSIBILITY for thoroughly familiarizing yourself with the controls and the concepts
behind the operation of this machine before attempting to operate it. Slowly experiment with the
controls and gradually work yourself up to the full capabilities of this machine. The Carlton®
track chipper is a durable and profitable professional chipper. Read the chipper manual, the
safety and operational decals on the chipper, and all other operation and safety materials
provided for the engine and other components. Use proper safety precautions. Follow the
instructions and use common sense and your “OX” will perform like its namesake. If getting
more work done in a day, with less trouble, is your idea of good business, then you’ll love your
new Carlton®Chipper.
We welcome your suggestions on how we might better build our machines. We solicit any and
all questions concerning the safe operation or proper servicing of your new chipper.
Please feel free to write to us with any comments. We’ll enjoy hearing from you!
