ASSEMBLY

Do not operate this unit without the chipper chute correctly
installed. Rotating cutting blades can cause serious personal
injury.

Mount the chipper chute to the hydraulic feed using eight
3/8" x 1" bolts and locknuts. To insert the top bolts, you
may need to temporarily lift the grab roller with a pry bar.
Use three bolts on each side and two on the bottom (see
Figure 2.2).

The Optional Chute Extension Tray is purchased seperately.

1.

After mounting the chute to the hydraulic feed, slide the
chute extension tray over the chipper chute as shown
in Figure 2.3. Make sure that you position the lip on
the extension tray behind the lip on the chipper
chute.
Align the five bolt holes in the chute extension
tray with the bolt holes in the extension hinge.

2.

Insert a 3/8" x 1" carriage bolt (included in owner's kit
packaged with the chipper) through the two outside holes
on the extension tray and the extension hinge. Secure
the bolts with washers and nuts.

3.

Insert one 3/8" x 1" carriage bolt through the end of the
chute support and middle holes on the extension hinge
and extension tray. Secure the bolts with washer and
nuts. Secure with hairpin clips.
