CHIPPER HOOD: The chipper hood is 1/4" plate steel. It is pinned to the lower housing by means of a l' diameter pin extending fully across the top of the hood. The hood is hinged at the discharge end to allow the transition to be tilted back if necessary. An engine safety stop device is activated when the pin is removed, to prevent the ability of the engine to run when the chipper hood is open. CHIPPER DRUM: prum is constructed with 1/2" thick end plates, 1/2" thick center reinforcement plate. The drum surface is 1/2" plate steel, rolled to a 36" outside diameter. The knife pockets are welded in the circumference at 90-degree increments. There are four pockets per drum, making a total of two full cuts per revolution. The chipper shaft is 2 15/16" diameter stress proof steel, ground and polished. Shaft is secured to drum with two removable taper lock bushings, one on each side of the drum. Finished size of the drum (without the shaft) is 36" diameter x 23 1/2" wide. Weight of total drum assembly (including shaft and fan impeller) is approximately 1240 Ibs. Drum speed is approximately 1225 rpm. CHIPPER DRUM AIR IMPELLER: A 36" diameter, 4-bladed fan impeller is located in a separate chamber integrated into the chipper base. The impeller attaches to the chipper drum shaft with a taper lock bushing. KNIFE POCKETS: The welded-in pockets are made from 1 1/2"plate steel on each end and 3/8" plate steel on the front, back and bottom. The end plates are machined, drilled, and tapped to accept replaceable knife holders. The holders are secured to the pocket by four 3/4" grade eight bolts. CHIPPER CONTINUED: KNIFE HOLDERS: Knife holders are replaceable, made from 3 1/4" thick x 3 1/2" wide x 13 1/2" long forged steel.

The length from the pinch point of the feed wheels to the operator ground level exceeds 85". The infeed is equipped with a control bar across the top and down both sides to operate the feed system. The control is set up to out-feed when the bar is pushed toward the chipper. The entire infeed is bolted on and may be removed from the chipper, if necessary. Loading height of chipper floor is 20". BOTTOM FEED WHEEL: The feed wheel is 29 1/2" wide x 9 1/2" in diameter, with knife bars welded to its outer edge. Feed wheel shaft is 2 7/16" diameter and is welded to the feed wheel end plates. A hydraulic motor drives the feed wheel, utilizing a double row 60-chain coupler. TOP FEED WHEEL: The feed wheel is 29 1/2" wide x 18" in diameter with knife bars welded to its outer edge. Feed wheel shaft is 2 7/16" diameter and is welded to the feed wheel end plates. For high torque, the feed wheel is driven at a 3 to 1 ratio by the hydraulic motor, using 60H chain and sprockets. TOP FEED WHEEL PIVOT ARM: Pivot arm is constructed with a 1/4" thick, box-type construction across the top, with 3/8" thick end plates for the bearing mounts. This assembly is attached the chipper with (2) 2" diameter pins that mount through fiber bushings. Down pressure is provided by (2) 3 1/2" outside diameter springs with 7/16" coils. The pivot arm assembly can be lifted for maintenance by using a hydraulic valve located on the side of the infeed. The assembly can be locked in the 'up' position using the l' diameter pin that is provided. GREASE POINTS: Depending on various options the chipper may be equipped with, the chipper has up to 21 grease fittings to reach with a grease gun. Standard units have the following: (4) on pivot arm pins, (4) feed wheel bearings, (2) discharge transition flange, (2) feed wheel lift cylinder pins, and (4) Twin Disc clutch. Options with grease fittings are: (1) manual crank swivel discharge, and (4) hydraulic powered winch. The chipper bearings do not have grease fittings. They should be cleaned and re-packed twice yearly with a high quality EP-2 lithium based grease with a 3000 rating. HYDRAULICS PUMP: Hydraulic pump is a Vickers V-10 vane type operating at a speed to produce a minimum of 9 gpm. The pump is located on the auxiliary drive of the engine to provide live hydraulics. VALVES: Control valves are Gresen V-20, in a stack that allows the addition of additional functions in the same bank. The feed wheel control handle has adjustable stops to protect the valve from abuse. Hydraulic relief pressure is set at 2500 psi. BOTTOM WHEEL MOTOR: White Roller Stator 45 cubic inch displacement. The shaft is keyed to accept a sprocket and bushing. TOP WHEEL MOTOR: White Roller Stator 22.8 cubic inch displacement. The shaft is keyed to accept a sprocket and bushing. TANK: Hydraulic tank is welded construction, 10 gauge steel with a lockable, vented cap. A ball valve is located at the outlet to shut off oil flow when required. A float type level indicator is provided. The tank is equipped with an internal baffle to insure cooling capability. Capacity is 21 gallons. FILTER: Hydraulic filter is a LE-10 (10 micron) element with internal bypass. Spin-on type. HOSES AND FITTINGS: Hydraulic hoses are 2-wire braid. Motors, valves, and pumps use O-ring fittings.

POPULAR OPTIONS WINCH: For units so equipped, the winch is located on top of the infeed shroud. It is a Tulsa Model H-931 , worm" gear driven and hydraulic powered. The winch is supplied with 100' of 5/16" steel cable with a slip hook at the end. The gear drive is lubricated with 90-weight gear oil. The cable drum has a spring tensioned guide plate to prevent cable unspooling and misalignment. It is equipped with a separate hydraulic valve to operate the winch, and the cable drum is equipped with a disengagement lever to allow free-spooling. There are (4) removable and replaceable chrome fairlead rollers (equipped with grease fittings) to guide the cable. Pull-in force of the winch varies depending on the amount of wraps of cable on the drum. With one wrap on the drum, it is approximately 6100 Ibs., with five wraps, approximately 4000 Ibs. Speed is also dependent on the amount of wraps, averaging approximately 50 fpm. HYDRAULIC SWIVEL DISCHARGE: The hydraulic swivel discharge turns using a Char-Lynn hydraulic motor, H-60 chain and sprockets. A separate hydraulic valve is located in the valve bank on the side of the infeed to control its function. A removable shield allows access to the chain and sprocket assembly. HYDRAULIC STABILIZERS: A hydraulic front stabilizer comes as part of the Tandem or Dually axle package. A control valve is located on top of the tongue to raise and lower the leg. Rear stabilizers are available, also. These have separate control valves located in the main valve bank on the side of the infeed. The stabilizer legs travel in a straight up-down motion and are powered with Morbark manufactured 2520 welded cylinders.
