2.1.8 Adjusting the Hydraulic Feed
Control Cable
Figure 2.5 shows the hydraulic feed control cable
assembly and the detent position slots. The cable is
attached and adjusted from the factory, but it should
be checked and adjusted as needed before use. The
hydraulic feed control lever has three positions:
Forward (lever moved toward the operator)
Neutral (lever in center position)
Reverse (lever moved away from operator; reverse
has no detent position)
When the operator moves the control lever to the
neutral position, the detent ball should be positioned in
the rear detent slot (see figure 2.5). The feed roller
should come to a complete stop when the control
lever is in the neutral position. If it does not stop,
adjust the clevis assembly on the control cable as
follows:
1. If the control lever is in neutral and the roller
creeps forward, the cable is too short; adjust it to
a longer length.
2. If the roller creeps in a reverse direction, the
cable is too long; adjust it to a shorter length.
3. Adjust the cable as needed to compensate for
cable stretch.
Adjust cable here as needed.

2.1.7 Attach the Blower Discharge Tube
Attach the blower discharge tube to the mounting flange
on the chipper frame (see figure 2.4). Half of the
mounting clamp is already attached to the tube. Slide the
tube into the flange and tighten the bolts to secure it.
Install the second half of the clamp to the tube and
flange. Rotate the tube 360 degrees and lock it in place
with the handle to make sure it is mounted correctly.
