18” DRUM MACHINE OPERATION

39

• Always feed trees and brush walking to

the right side of the chipper, material

being fed should be to the operators’ left

side. When the material is being fed into

the feed wheels it tends to kick to the left

and an operator could be injured if

loading the material from the left side.

• Start feeding smaller diameter trees and

brush first and work your way up to the

full capacity of the chipper, which is 18”

diameter material. Feed pieces long

enough for the feed wheels to pick up

without endangering yourself by

reaching into the infeed chute. No one

should ever reach or kick into the

infeed chute for any reason when the

feed wheels or engine are running.

Feed shorter pieces of brush and limbs

on top of longer material.

• Pay close attention to feeding the small

diameter material that is long enough, 6’

or shorter, to be fed into the feed wheels

but doesn’t have enough weight to be

held down when the wheels first grab

onto it. This material could kick straight

up and hit the operator causing injury.

Hold the material away from the body

using both hands and never lean over the

material in case the feed wheels cause it

to kick up. Use the hydraulic lift cylinder

to open the feed wheels when feeding

this type of material.

• Do not hold onto or try to force the

material through the chipper. Once the

material has been grabbed by the feed

wheels and is being chipped, release it

and let the chipper do its job. When the

chipper feed wheels are feeding the

material, turn away from the material

and walk away to get more material.

• There are two air vents on the drum

chipper, one on each side of the drum.

When chipping vine type material or

very fine material, you may need to open

these vents to allow air to circulate to

prevent clogging. Open if the engine

RPM starts to drop significantly.
