Feed Roller support must be secured in the up position
prior to servicing chipper feed area. Feed Roller can fall
and cause bodily harm.
WARNING
Before the chipper feed area is serviced, the feed roller support
must be locked in the upright position. To secure the feed
roller support, proceed as follows.
1. Turn the 1/2" wingnut located on the bottom of the bottle
jack to the right, engaging the jack.
2. Using the jack handle, pump the jack to the most up-
right position. This raises the feed roller support.
3. Place a 1/2” x 1 1/2” bolt, or similar device, through the
hole called out on Fig. #2. This will ensure the feed
roller support cannot fall from the upright position.
4. Service or clear the unit of debris. Do not place hands
underneath the feed roller if possible.
5. To lower the feed roller support, remove the bolt and
then release tension on the jack by turning the 1/2"
wingnut to the left.
6. Before operation turn and tighten the 1/2" wingnut fully
to the right.
