WARNINGS FOR HYDRAULIC-DRIVEN SYSTEMS
• Hydraulic fluid is hot when the machine has just come to a stop.
Allow the implement to cool down entirely before repairing the hydraulic system.
• Avoid contact with high-pressure fluid at all times. Liquid under high pressure quickly
penetrates clothing or skin, resulting in serious injuries.
• Prevent oil leakage or spillage to avoid the risk of slipping.
• Replace rubber and plastic hoses after six years with equivalent hoses.
• Changing the hydraulic system or using it for another purpose is forbidden.
Non-observance of the regulations, as mentioned above, is considered gross negligence. In this case, the supplier
is not liable for any damage.
Anyone working on installations where hydraulic fluid, lubricating oil, grease, or preservatives are used must
observe the following rules:
n Wear protective gloves and safety glasses or goggles when working with hydraulic systems.
n Do not remove the protection sleeves from the hydraulic hoses.

BX510H Assembly & Operating Instructions - Page 8 of 45 - Version 1.0
n Avoid prolonged contact with the liquid on the skin. In the event of contact, carefully cleanse the skin. Wear
clothing that is free of this liquid. Also, be careful when eating and drinking during the operation.
n Avoid skin contact with liquids over 60°C or hot machine parts.
n Avoid eye contact; if this happens, cleanse with plenty of water and contact a doctor.
n Liquid storage must follow official guidelines; pay attention to fire extinguishers and emergency exits.
n Permanently remove spilled liquids immediately to prevent them from slipping.
n Hydraulic liquids should not get into the ground or in surface water.
n Avoid high-pressure fluids hazards. Escaping fluid under pressure can penetrate the skin causing severe
injury.
n Avoid the hazard by relieving pressure before disconnecting hydraulic lines. The hydraulic systems operate
under extremely high pressure.
n Never try to stop leaks from the system by hand.
n Do not attempt makeshift repairs to the hydraulic lines, fittings, or hoses using tapes, clamps, or types of
cement. Such maintenance will fail suddenly and create a hazardous condition.
n Use paper or cardboard, not body parts, to check for suspected leaks.
n Have used liquids removed and recycled by specialized companies.
n If an accident occurs, see a doctor immediately. Always treat any fluid injected into the skin within a few
hours.

n Do not stand between the tractor and the implement during hitching.
n When raising and moving implements, watch for wires, trees, etc.
n Turning the tractor too tight may cause the implement to ride upon wheels. It can result in injury or
equipment damage.
n Visually inspect the infeed bin and the flywheel before starting. Ensure that the chipper head is clear, all the
bolts are tightened, and the knives do not touch the case and the counter knife.
n Ensure the PTO shaft does not come apart or bottom out during the normal lifting range.
n Check the chip pile to see if the knives need to be serviced. Long slivers in the chip pile are one of the best
indicators of dull knives.
n It is NOT recommended to operate the woodchipper in temperatures below freezing. Hardened steel (used
on knives) can become brittle in temperatures below freezing and may result in breakage. Ensure debris does
not blow into traffic, parked cars, or pedestrians.
n Always stand clear of the discharge area when operating this machine. Keep face and body away from feed
and discharge openings.
n Keep hands and feet out of feed and discharge openings while the machine operates to avoid serious
personal injury. Stop and allow the woodchipper to come to a complete stop before clearing obstructions.
n Do not climb on the machine when operating. Keep proper balance and footing at all times.
n The disk will continue to rotate when the clutch is disengaged or reversing valves in the median. Shut off the
tractor, remove the ignition key, and ensure all moving parts have completely stopped.
n Do not insert logs more prominent than 5 inches in diameter into the woodchipper or machine; damage may
occur.
n Do not allow metal, bottles, cans, or other foreign material when feeding wood into the machine.
n Do not allow processed material to build up in the discharge area. It may prevent proper discharge and kick-
off material through the feed opening.
n Do not send metal, bottles, cans, rocks, glass, or other foreign material into the woodchipper.
n Shut off the woodchipper immediately if it becomes clogged. If the cutting mechanism strikes any foreign
object, or if the machine starts vibrating or making an unusual noise, shut off the engine, remove the
tractor’s ignition key, and ensure all moving parts have come to a complete stop. Inspect for damage after
the woodchipper stops.
n Check blade bolts for proper torque after every 8 hours of operation. Keep blades sharp. Failure to do so may
cause poor performance, damage, or personal injury and void the machine warranty.
n Never allow passengers to ride on the woodchipper.
2.3 INFEED ROLLERS SAFETY
n The infeed rollers can cause severe injury or death. Keep hands, feet, and clothing away from the rollers and
flywheel knife blades.
n Never climb onto the feed chute when the unit is operating or running.
n Do not reach inside the machine. Keep proper balance and footing.
n When feeding material into the infeed system, wear eye, face, and hearing protection.
n Release material on time and stand to the side of the feed chute.
2.4 MORE SAFETY TIPS FOR SAFE OPERATION
n Always keep the guards and chip deflector installed properly while operating the woodchipper.
n Do not attempt alterations, repairs, or adjustments while the flywheel turns.

BX510H Assembly & Operating Instructions - Page 10 of 45 - Version 1.0
n Always disconnect the PTO, stop the tractor’s motor, and put the key in your pocket before attempting any
alterations, repairs, or adjustments.
n Keep hands, feet, clothing, and other extremities away from the hopper (infeed bin) and any power-driven
parts. Wear snug-fitting clothing to avoid entanglement with moving parts.
n Do not wear loose clothing when working around the woodchipper. Personal injury can occur if someone or
something turns the flywheel over while checking the knives or adjusting the cutter bar.
n Point the discharge chute away from persons, doorways, sidewalks, or areas obstructing your view. Point the
chute downwind when possible. This will keep the chips from blowing back in the operator’s direction.
2.5 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS CONTINUED FOR TRACTOR AND/OR
LOADER (IF EQUIPPED)
n Read the tractor and/or loader operator's manual to learn how to safely operate your tractor and/or loader.
Failure to do so could result in severe injury, death, and equipment damage.
n The tractor is recommended to be equipped with a Rollover Protective System (ROPS) and a seat belt and
that you use the belt for all loader operations.
n Add wheel ballast or front weight for stability.
n Move wheels to the tractor manufacturer's most comprehensive recommended settings to increase stability.
n Use a tractor with a wide front axle rather than tricycle front wheels for better stability.
n Always move and turn the tractor at low speeds.
n Stop the tractor’s engine, place the transmission in park mode (or neutral), engage the parking brake, lower
loader arms to the ground, cycle all hydraulic controls to relieve pressure, and allow machine moving parts to
stop. Remove the ignition key to prevent an unauthorized person from starting the engine before
dismounting the tractor or serving, repairing, or making adjustments to the equipment.
n Wear personal protective equipment (PPE), including but not limited to protection for eyes, ears, lungs,
head, hands, and feet when operating, servicing, or repairing equipment.
n Avoid wearing loose clothing or jewelry that may catch and entangle equipment moving parts.
2.5.1 Driveline Safety Checklist
Driveline Specifications
The first step toward safe applications is to specify and test the driveline to operate appropriately under
expected field conditions.
n Specify and test the proper size joints and telescoping members based on the power required by the
implement, rotation speed, joint angles, shock loads, and expected lifetime.
n Test the hitch geometry to prevent the driveline from:
• Extending beyond the recommended maximum length.
• Bottoming out.
• Reaching a position that allows universal joints to lock.
• Exceeding the maximum allowable angle for the constant velocity of the universal joints.
You can find information concerning these parameters in all driveline manufacturer’s catalogs.
n Specify and test telescoping members to allow the lowest possible thrust loads, considering the expected
working conditions.
n Specify and test torque limiters to control excessive shock loads.
n Specify and test overrunning clutches to prevent inertial loads from overpowering the tractor.

BX510H Assembly & Operating Instructions - Page 11 of 45 - Version 1.0
Hazard Reduction
The second step in specifying a safe driveline application is eliminating as many hazards as possible.
n On a driveline with torque limiting or overrunning devices, specify that this device is positioned at the end of
the driveline near the implement.
n To implement connections that require bolts or set screws, select and/or supply hardware that minimizes
protrusions. You can find Information concerning these parameters in all driveline manufacturer’s catalogs.
n For the tractor's PTO shaft connections, specify a safety-type yoke (twist or slide collar) to minimize
protrusions.
n Provide a proper clearance zone for the driveline operation to avoid damaging the shielding components.
2.6 ALL POSSIBLE SAFETY DECALS PRESENT ON YOUR TRACTOR

n Ensure that the size of the PTO shaft is correct. After mounting, keep the woodchipper as close to the tractor
as possible; the shaft must not get stuck.
n Always keep the PTO shaft as straight as possible. Your PTO shaft will be more efficient and have a longer life
if you use it straightforwardly. An angle smaller than 15 degrees is acceptable.
n Ad grease in the PTO shaft junction nipples.
1. Park the tractor on a level surface. Slowly adjust the tractor’s three-point hitch until the tractor’s output
shaft is level with the implement’s input shaft.
2. Place the gear selector in the park mode, set the parking brake, shut the tractor off, and remove the
switch key.
3. Block the implement to prevent it from going downward.
4. Slide the PTO shaft's inner yoke (implement end) onto the input shaft.
Secure the PTO shaft with the yoke locking device.
5. Slide the PTO shaft's outer yoke (tractor end) over the output shaft.
Secure the PTO shaft with the yoke locking device.
6. Move the PTO shaft back and forth to ensure both ends are secured (to the tractor and the implement).
7. Your PTO shaft comes with a chain on the shield. Secure the chain to the tractor and the implement. This
will prevent the protection from spinning during operation.

Checking the PTO Shaft’s Extended Length
Make sure the PTO shaft’s collapsible length is acceptable. When fully extended, the PTO shaft's maximum
allowable length must have a minimum overlap of the two driveline sides by not less than 1/3 the free length,
with both inner and outer drivelines being of equal length.
1. Apply multi-purpose grease to the ‘outer shaft’ inside and reassemble the PTO shaft.
2. Assemble the two shaft parts with 1/3 overlapping inner and outer drivelines. Once assembled, measure
and record the maximum allowable length shown below for future reference.
3. Attach the inner driveshaft yoke to the implement’s input shaft. Attach the outer driveshaft yoke to the
tractor’s output shaft.
4. Move the yoke ends of the driveshaft back and forth to ensure they are secured to the tractor and
implement shafts. Re-attach any loose ends.
5. Raise and lower the implement to find the maximum extended PTO shaft length. Check to ensure that the
PTO shaft’s overall length does not exceed the full recorded size.
6. Set the tractor’s 3-Point lift height if needed to keep the PTO shaft from exceeding the maximum
allowable length.
STEP 9: OPEN THE FLYWHEEL CHAMBER TO CHECK KNIVES ADJUSTMENT
WARNING!
• The knives are very sharp.
• Wear heavy leather gloves and use extreme caution.
• Never operate the woodchipper with the flywheel chamber open.
n Locate and remove the retaining bolt that
holds the flywheel chamber closed. Use the
18 mm wrench.
n Flip the flywheel chamber top cover up.

BX510H Assembly & Operating Instructions - Page 20 of 45 - Version 1.0
n Rotate the flywheel by hand to ensure no
obstructions are in the flywheel chamber.
n Visually inspect for any obstructions.
n Close the cover and reinstall the retaining
bolt.
STEP 6: CHECK THE KNIVES' CLEARANCE
n Rotate the flywheel by hand to ensure that
the four knives clear the counter knife (1)
and the proper distance between the tip of
each blade and the (bed) counter knife is
correct (.0300”).
n If the distance is too close, the knives can
be damaged by contacting the counter
knife.
n Some material can pass through the
woodchipper without shearing if the
distance is too large. This can cause the
discharge chute to plug.
n If you need to adjust the gap, refer to ‘Bed
knife changing/adjusting’ in this Chapter.
n Rotate the flywheel by hand for two or
three revolutions to ensure no interference
issues.
