OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1) Be sure all guards and covers are in place.
2) Check all chambers to be sure they are free and clear of debris.
3) Set direction of discharge chute.
4) Start engine, bring up to full R.P.M.
6) Begin feeding material into the machine. NOTE: You should be standing, looking at the
infeed hopper opening, as you place material into the machine. Turn to your left and exit the
area. Go and get another branch, do not worry about the chipper, it will take care of itself.
Should there be any wood left in the infeed, it will be taken care of by the next branch. DO
NOT REACH INTO THIS MACHINE FOR ANY REASON!
7) When you are done chipping, let the machine come down to an idle for a few minutes before
shutting down.
HINTS
1) When operating machine, stand off to the side of the feed hopper when feeding wood into
the machine. NEVER STAND DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF THE FEED HOPPER
WHEN FEEDING WOOD INTO THE MACHINE.
2) When using the chipper and you have a short piece of wood bouncing around and not
being grabbed by the feed roll, LEAVE IT! DO NOT TRY TO PUSH IT THROUGH
WITH ARMS OR LEGS! The next limb will push it through.
3) When through with the job, make sure all material is run through the machine before
shutting it down. This will prevent any injuries from flying debris when the machine is
started up at the next job.
REMEMBER! A CHIPPER WILL ONLY LET YOU MAKE A STUPID MISTAKE
ONCE!

SERVICE SCHEDULE
1. Grease all main bearings once a day. DO NOT OVER GREASE. Wipe extra grease off
bearings.
2. Be sure to clean entire machine. Should it become necessary to remove the exhaust
chute, to clean out the machine, make sure the key has been removed from the engine.
3. Sharpen/change chipper blades: REMOVE KEY FROM ENGINE. Remove bolt
on impeller housing. Open impeller housing to expose impeller and chipper blades. Do
not reach in and hold impeller with your hand, instead use a piece of 2" x 4" wood to
push impeller housing. When you reassemble, be sure to use Locktite. We use Locktite,
Blue 242, removable at the factory. It is also advisable to discard bolts and replace them
with new bolts. Sharpen blades as you would sharpen a lawn mower blade, under angle
edge only. Sharpen blades as evenly as possible. REMINDER! SALSCO, INC. has a
blade sharpening service. Call SALSCO, INC. for full details, 800-872-5726.
4. Recommended Bed knife adjustment is 3/16” from chipper blades. When adjusting
bed knife, check the distance on all chipper blades. MAKE SURE all bolts are tightened
properly after adjusting bed knife.
HINT: It is strongly recommended to have a set of blades and screws on the shelf, to
prevent downtime while blades are being sharpened.
HINT: Blades need sharpening after approximately 8 - 15 hours of use.
