Chapter 1 INFORMATION
1.2 Main Warnings
Protections have been provided by the manufacturer for
safeguard of the operator’s safety.
During the machine operation, the guards cannot be
removed for any reason whatever.
It is essential that nobody walk in the machine working
area except for its operator. In no event, the operator is
allowed to go up the machine framework.
All the maintenance, adjustment, control and replacement
operations described in this Manual have to be carried out
only after the machine has been stopped.
During the removal, adjustment or replacement of blades,
the operator must wear safety gloved in order to avoid any
injury or accident
(one pair of gloves is delivered by the machine
Manufacturer).
During the work, the operator must wear ear protectors
due to the high noise level of the production run (the
sound pressure level measured at 1 m distance is higher
than 80 dB).
While working, the operator shall wear a pair of goggles to
protect eyes from sawing.

CIP 1500 – User and Maintenance Manual

Chapter 1 INFORMATION
Avoid releasing the remaining hydraulic fluid to the
environment, rather dispose of it according to the
regulations in force.
Avoid acting on the machine oleodynamic system for any
reason whatever, in particular on the oil pressure control
preset by the Manufacturer and which does need no
subsequent intervention.
Some pictograms and symbols have been applied to the
machine by its manufacturer, in conformity with the law in
force, in order to warn the operator for the residual risks
actual during the machine operation.
During the machine transportation, there may be a risk for
overturning. For this reason, all disconnections have to be
checked and the route slope grades have to be assessed
before starting the machine trip.
The maximal slope grade of the road is 5%.
No unauthorized or uncharged people are allowed
acceding to the machine controls.
It is essential that nobody walk across the working area.
No people extraneous to the operation may walk across or
stay in the machine handling area.
The machine has to be used by one person at a time.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION OF THE MACHINE
The chipper Mod. CIP 1500 has been designed and manufactured to reduce
large volumes of branches, sawmill waste and pruning remainders into small-
sized pieces.
The material, entered to the inlet port, is drawn by two feeding rollers against
the chipper disk.
The two draw rollers are driven by independent hydraulic motors with adjustable
speed.
The chipper disk, rotating at 1500 r.p.m., is fitted with 2 blades, cutting the
material into fragments, 5 to 20 mm long, and one counter-blade, secured to the
structure, further reducing them into chips.
The chips are ejected by the centrifugal action of the chipper disk into an outlet
conveyor.
Such conveyor may be oriented according to the outlet direction.
Technical Specification
•Outlet month dimensions mm 840 x 610
•MAX chipping diameter mm 150
•Flywheel diameter mm 680
•Flywheel thickness mm 30
•Blades n° 2 ÷ 3
•Flywheel speed of rotation (max) r.p.m. 1500
•Chips length mm 6 ÷ 12
•Diameter of feeding rollers mm 165-155
•Max. distance between feeding rollers mm 180
•Stand-alone engine power rating
(LOMBARDINI / HONDA / ELECTRIC 22 kW) kW 17.7 / 19.8 / 22 / 27.2
•Hourly output m38 ÷ 10
•Airborne noise produced by the machine ( 1 ) Db (A) ?
•Weight See data plate
( 1 ) The above-mentioned MAX noise level has been measured in the operator area, while he was
working.
?Higher than 85 dB: wearing ear protectors is compulsory.

Chapter 7 TRANSPORT
TRANSPORT OF THE MACHINE
WARNINGS:
It is prohibited to foreign people not involved in the handling operation to
walk or stay near the machine handling area, in order to avoid any
intercept with the suspended machine.
Special attention has to be given to the machine lifting speed, which has
to be appropriate for avoiding a dangerous swinging of the machine and
breakage of the lifting ropes.
In case the machine lifting or handling is carried out by means of a crane,
the size of lifting ropes must be suitable to the weight to he lifted in order
to assure operating in safety.
When the machine has to be taken onto a
transport means, it may be lifted by a
crane.
To this purpose, follow the procedures
below to work in safety:
•check the total weight of the machine
(see Chapter 3: “Technical
Specification”) and verify the lifting
capacity of hooks (fitted with safety
devices) and ropes (G)
•pivotally fasten the rope hooks to the
plates welded to the machine
framework (P)
•hoist the machine up from ground level
and put it down to the transportation
vehicle.
