1.59.1 There is an explosion risk if the battery terminals are short circuited, when
connecting / 0dis-connecting ALWAYS exercise great care so that the terminals or
battery leads are NOT allowed to touch and cause a spark. ALWAYS use suitable
insulated tools.
1.60 Vibrations (where applicable).
1.61 Prolonged use of hand held (operated) machines will cause the user to feel the
effects of/from vibrations. These vibrations can lead to white finger (Raynaud’s
phenomenon) or carpal tunnel syndrome. This condition reduces the ability of the
hand to feel and regulate temperature, causing numbness and heat sensations and
may cause nerve damage and circulatory tissue death.
1.62 Not all factors that lead to white finger disease are known, but cold weather, smoking
and other diseases that affect blood vessels and blood circulation as well as large
and long-lasting impact of shocks are considered factors in the formation of white
finger. Note the following to reduce the risk the white finger and carpal tunnel syndrome:
1.63 Wear gloves and keep your hands warm
1.64 Take regular breaks
1.65 All of the above precautions may help reduce the risk of white finger disease but not
rule out carpal tunnel syndrome. Long-term and regular users are therefore
recommended to observe the condition of your hands and fingers. Seek medical
attention immediately if any of the above symptoms should occur.
7
1.70 Noise (where applicable).
1.71 The operating noise of the machine can damage your hearing. Wear hearing
protection such as earplugs or ear defenders to protect your hearing. Long- term and
regular users are advised to have hearing checked regularly. Be especially vigilant
and cautious when wearing hearing protection because your ability to hear alarm
warnings will be reduced.
1.72 Noise emissions for this equipment is unavoidable. Carry out noisy work at approved
times and for certain periods. Limit the working time to a minimum. For your personal
protection and protection of people working nearby it is also advisable for them to
wear hearing protection.
1.73 See CERTIFICATE of CONFORMITY section for Outdoor Noise declaration of
conformity.
1.80 Machine specific safety.
1.81 Working with the chipper - The chipper is designed solely for chipping all kinds of
newly cut tree branches of diameters up to 100 mm for HYCH1500E-2 or 70mm for
HYCH7070[E]-2
1.90 Usage restrictions.
1.91 You should NOT use the chipper for chipping metal, stones, and plastics and other
hard materials that may damage your machine. If you are going to chip tree roots
check that the diameter is less than 70 / 100mm and remove all earth, sand, stones
etc.
1.92 After the first hours use check that the bolts of the blades and counter blade are firm
ly fixed and that the gap between blades and counter blade is 1 - 2mm adjust as
required.
1.A Description of machine - This chipper is a machine for chipping newly cut wood.
1.A1 The rotor has 2 blades each with a 300 mm width and is powered by a petrol engine.
Transmission is through two parallel drive belts. The chips of wood are discharged
through the discharge chute by the centrifugal force of the rotor. Because of the angle
of the blades and the positioning of the counter blade branches are pulled inside the
machine automatically. Side branches greater than 30mm should be sawn off before
loading into machine.

This series of highly efficient wood chippers have been designed with safety protection, reliability
and long operating life in mind. Main body parts are all made from high quality steel, blades are
made from high speed steel HSS, sharp cutting edges from hardened steel for durability and effi-
ciency.
The machine consists of main body 1, Feed hopper 9, discharge chute 10, wheels 2, front leg 4,
please see diagram. The chipping cylinder, belt drive and engine are all mounted to the main body.
Operating instructions and warnings
Please read carefully and understand the engine instruction manual before use.
The engine is shipped from factory without lubricant and fuel.
The HYCH1500E-2 requires 1.1L of 10w30 or 15w40 engine oil and the HYCH7070[E]-2 requires
0.6L of 10w30 or 15w40 engine oil.
On initial start-up, run the machine for 5 minutes without feeding any wood into it to warm the
engine up and allow the belts to bed in. Do not overload the machine by forcing too much or too
large diameter wood into the hopper.
Keep minors away from the machine.
Do not put hands or other body parts into hopper.
Do not get close to the discharge chute, the chips are expelled from discharge chute at high speed
and may cause injury.
If the machine produces abnormal vibration or unusual noises, immediately turn the machine off
and check it.
If the machine is failing to cut properly the blades may need to sharpened or adjusted, the blade
clearance should be 1-2mm.
Choice of chipping material: Fresh cut tree branches can be chipped directly. Due to different
hardness and moisture content, the engine may slow midway or the machine body may shake
during chipping, if this happens, reduce the amount of wood being fed into the hopper. The
recommended maximum chipping capacity is for soft wood, for hardwood the maximum chipping
diameter should be reduced by 30%. The ideal chipping for this machine is suitable for fresh cut
with 80% moisture content plant. During the chipping process, you should obey the rule: largest
diameter first followed by the smaller branches. In order to get good chipping, it’s better to put
branches and leaves together. Leaves and thin vegetation may not chip well. Do not feed in large
diameter logs.
Maintenance instructions
This series of machine requires regular greasing of the main cutting shaft bearings. See section 7.

excess oil into a suitable container.
DO NOT dispose of oil down drains or onto the ground.
18
4. STARTING PROCEDURE
Before starting make sure machine is clear of materials and all non-essential persons.
NOTE: The machine is shipped without oil, therefore you MUST fill the engine with oil before
starting the engine. Failure to do so will result in engine damage which will not be
covered by warranty.
Fill with SAE15W40 oil and fresh unleaded petrol. Make sure the fuel and oil caps are
secure – See section 3.03
4.01 Recoil starting procedure.
Set the ignition key switch on the key start module to the ON position or for recoil
only machines, switch to ON.
Check that the emergency STOP bar is not jammed in the STOP (down) position.
It should be up to start.
19
4.10 (cont) For COLD start move choke lever left to START position (LEFT)
Move the fuel tap right to the ON position (RIGHT). Move the throttle lever right to the
MIDDLE position.
N.B. For a WARM/HOT start you will not need to use full choke. If the engine is warm, use
half choke. If the engine is hot, do not use the choke. (Lever in RIGHT position)
COLD start refers to an engine that has not been run recently, hence the engine is cold.
Place one hand on the machine, and using the other hand pull the recoil until you
feel a resistance, then pull briskly. Repeat until machine starts. DO NOT let go of the
recoil handle instead return handle slowly. When the engine has started you need to
reduce the choke by slowly moving lever to the right to the RUN position if engine
falters move choke between START/RUN positions and adjust until engine runs
smoothly.
