ignition is shut off, the ignition key is removed and inyour pocket, and the battery is disconnected.

ALWAYS install the lock pin into the chipper disclock tube before working on the chipper.

Simply slide the lock pin into the disc lock tube.This is to insure that the disc cannot be started whileyou are working inside the chipper. If for somereason the disc would start to turn, it would simply hitthe lock pin.

DANGER!Do not work inside the mouth of the chipper or

around the feedwheels, until you have installed theyoke lock pin to keep the top feedwheel in the raisedposition.

DO NOT attempt to operate this machine withoutproper training and becoming very familiar with theoperator’s manual. The hydraulic feed wheels aredesigned to pull wood into the chipper. They do notknow the difference between a hand or wood. If aguard is removed, it must be replaced or severe

injury can result. The cutter-wheel coasts for several min-utes after the power is shutdown. DO NOT attempt anymaintenance while the wheel isturning. NEVER open or closethe cutterwheel cover while thedisc is still turning.

MODEL 65MODEL 65 CHIPBOX SAFETY PROCEDURES


SAFETY PROCEDURES

DANGER!Pay attention to the direction of the discharge pipe

before chipping. Never stand in front of the chipperdischarge pipe. Never direct the pipe towardsanyone or anything that could cause an accident orproblems. Wood chips flying out of the dischargepipe can be very dangerous!

Torn or loose clothing is more likely to get caught inmoving machinery parts or tree branches. Keep suchitems as long hair, shirt sleeves, and shirt tailsproperly contained. Avoid wearing necklaces, rings,watches, and especially neckties while operating thismachinery. Make sure the machine is in excellentcondition, and all the guards are in place, tight andsecure.

Keep children, bystanders and animals clear ofworking area. Never operate equipment that is in needof repair or adjustment.

Wear all applicable safety equipment examples:hard hat, safety glasses, gloves, ear protection, etc.You should always keep a fully charged fireextinguisher with you while chipping and servicing themachine.

DO NOT remove the hood pin until the chipper dischas came to a complete stop. The chipper disc willcoast for several minutes after the engine is shutdown.Always wait at least 3 minutes.

DO NOT operate this machine without the HoodPin in place. Do not operate the machine with anytype of makeshift hood pin! The Hood Pin MUST bepadlocked.

DO NOT operate the machine with the chipper hoodopen under any circumstances.

DO NOT slam the chipper hood to the openposition. This will cause damage to the hinge. If yourhinge has become damaged by slamming the hoodto the open position, Replace The Hinge Immediately!If the hinge has become damaged it will causemisalignment of the hood, the chipper disc may thenhit the hood and cause a serious accident!

Never turn the chipper disc by hand always use apry bar. This will prevent the person turning the discfrom being injured should the disc break loose.

We have provided a sight hole in the chipper beltshield. If belts can be seen moving do not openchipper hood. Do not stick fingers in sight hole.

Never reach into the infeed hopper area of thechipper. There is never any reason to. If you haveshort pieces, or leaves and twigs, just leave them untilyou are feeding longer pieces. While the long piecesare feeding, simply toss the short pieces on top ofthem. The longer pieces will take them on into thechipper.

Always block the tires and the machine tonguewhenever the Bandit is unhooked for operation. DONOT rely on the tongue jack for operationalstabilization.

DANGER!

DANGER!

DANGER!

DANGER!

A wooden push paddle has been provided to assistyou in feeding smaller material. DO NOT use anybody parts or any steel devices inside the infeedhopper area.

If you have larger diameter wood, try to feed it withsmaller diameter wood. Start a small diameter limbwhich will partially open the feedwheel. Once thefeedwheel is partially open it is much easier to insertthe larger diameter wood.



SAFETY PROCEDURES

WARNING!Most of the nuts used on the Bandit Chipper are

self locking. After the nut has been removed fivetimes, it should be replaced to insure propertightness. This is especially critical on the chipperknife lock nuts!

After the engine is started, let the chipper disc turnat the lowest RPM’s possible. Listen for any type ofnoise that is foreign. Any steel on steel noise isforeign. If you hear a noise, stop the engine, find theproblem and fix it.

Regardless of how hard a manufacturer tries toproduce a safe machine, accidents still happen.Normally accidents are caused by people makingmistakes. They do not read the manual, they ignorewarning decals or do not use lockouts provided fortheir safety. This normally happens after the personhas become accustomed to the machinery. In theinitial start up and operation of the machinery, theyare cautious, they are very careful because they donot understand the machine.

Never throw in any materials that might containwires, stones, nails, or other metal objects whichmay damage the knives and become dangerousprojectiles.

DO NOT operate this machine indoors! Exhaustfumes can be fatal. When you are refueling themachine, DO NOT SMOKE, make sure the engine isshut off, do not allow any hot or burning materialsnear the chipper.

Never check for hydraulic leaks by touching hosesor fittings with your bare hands. Hydraulic fluid underpressure can penetrate the skin. Use a piece ofcardboard to find leaks. Never use your bare hands.

To obtain the most from your chipper, for the leastamount of cost, it is a good practice to set and followa scheduled preventative maintenance program. Itwill eliminate many possible problems and down time.

Before starting the machine, take a minute to checka few things. The chipper should be in an arearestricted from people passing by. This area aroundthe chipper must be free of all objects that canobstruct your movement when working with thechipper. The machine should be checked for loosetools or foreign objects, especially in the infeedhopper area. All tools not in use should be secured ina tool box.

Do not work on the machine if the engine is runningwith the clutch disengaged. A clutch can self-engageif either the pilot or throw-out bearing happens to seizeto the main output shaft.

Remember, it should take most of your strength toengage the clutch. If the clutch engages easily, DONOT OPERATE this chipper until the clutch has beenadjusted.

The clutch is an expensive component part of theBandit. It needs proper maintenance (seemaintenance section and manufacturers manual fordetailed information). The operator must take carein the engagement and disengagement of theengine, RPM should always be below 1000 RPM.When the engine has sufficiently warmed up, bumpthe clutch handle against engagement to start the discturning. This will have to be repeated until thechipper disc is turning at proper ratio with engine RPM.Then push the handle all the way in gear until it locksinto position securely. If clutch engages anddisengages loosely, it needs adjustment. Afterengagement raise engine RPM to full throttle.Engaging and disengaging the clutch at high engineRPM will quickly and excessively wear out clutchplates as well as bearings.

disable plug which disables the engine if it is notinstalled properly with the hood pin holding thechipper hood in the closed position. Correctly installedand maintained, the engine will not start or it willshut off if the chipper hood engine disable plug isdisconnected. The chipper hood must NEVERbe opened, or pushed closed if the chipper disc isturning.

DANGER!Make sure that there is reflective striped tape

installed on the feed control handle. This tape isreflective, self adhesive and has contrasting colors.The tape helps make the feed control handlestand out more and it also makes the rear of thechipper more visible to a vehicle behind you whiletransporting chipper. Striped tape can be obtainedthrough your local Bandit Dealer.

Before you begin to transport your machine makesure that the tongue jack has been raised to the properheight and attach it securely to the towing vehicle.Once secured to vehicle locate tongue jack andsecure it in the transport position. Always hook safetychains to vehicle by crossing them under the tongueallowing enough slack to avoid binding when makingturns. Check brakes and highway lights make surethat they are all operating properly. Make sure thatthe discharge pipe is in the transport position pointedover the tongue of chipper and be sure to check tirepressure before you begin to transport the machine.

WARNING!

DANGER!DO NOT feed vines or viney type material!

DO NOT pile vines or viney type material in front ofthe infeed hopper which may cause you to trip or fall!

DO NOT allow vines or limbs to become entangledwith you or your clothing!

DO cut viney material into 4 to 5 foot length’s, awayfrom the chipper area!

DO stop the feed system before feeding the cut vineymaterial into the infeed hopper!

Do not use the push button to decrease RPM’s. Loosen thelocking device and turn the throttle control clockwise. Do notkeep turning the throttle control once the engine hasdecreased RPM’s. Engaging the push button and pushing thethrottle control in will exert too much strain on the cable.

NOTICE

MODEL 65MODEL 65 CHIPBOX EQUIPMENT OPTIONS

DO NOT OVERWORKTHIS ENGINE!

This machine is powered by an engine that is capable of chipping3” to 4” diameter brush with sharp chipper knives. The machinewill chip large diameter material as long as the operator uses cau-tion. An occasional large diameter can be chipped if the hydraulicfeed wheels are stopped immediately when the engine begins tolug down. Do not chip continuous large diameter material.Excessive engine overwork will overheat the engine and causeengine failure.

TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE

IF THE POWER TO CHECK THE FEED SOLENOID IS INCONSISTENT ORDOES NOT WORK, CHECK THE FOLLOWING WITH A MULTIMETER:

MULTIMETER SET AT RX100 RANGE

TP1 to TP5 0 ohmsTP2 to TP6 0 ohmsTP3 to TP7 0 ohmsTP4 to TP9 0 ohmsTP10 to TP8 0 ohmsTP4 to TP8 0 ohms with ON-OFF switch ON

AC VOLTAGE TEST

With the engine running and the multimeter set to the 0-50 Volts AC range, TP1 or TP5 should showa reading of 6-40 Volts AC to ground.

DC VOLTAGE TEST

With the autofeed turned on, the engine at idle, and the multimeter set to DC Volts, TP4 or TP8should show a reading of 12-16 Volts DC to ground. The feedwheels should not be turning.

1. Select DC volts on the multimeter.

2. Put the red (+) lead on the multimeter to the red lead supplying power to the speed sensor.If there is no voltage:a. Check the 7.5 amp in line fuse and replace if bad.b. Check the switch. It is in series with the fuse and turns on the speed sensor.c. Check the wires to the quick connectors on both sides of the speed sensor control

(Making sure they are not broken).d. Check the wires at the solenoid valve.

NOTE: The solenoid will be ON when the engine is off (with key turned to the on position) or when theRPM is at a low idle. If the above adjustments and voltage checks do not work, then replace theautofeed control. Call your dealer and they can send another control already programmed for theengine used on the chipper.




TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDEPOSSIBLE CAUSES WHY AUTOFEED DOES NOT WORK OR ISINTERMITTENT:1. Switch is not turned on.2. Engine not coming back to full rated RPM.3. Bad ON/OFF switch.4.

OPERATING PROCEDURES

WARNING!When feeding material into the infeed hopper, always feed from the side of the infeed tray thenturn away from material and walk away as wood feeds in. Chippers should be fed fromcurbside (right side) whenever possible. Anytime operator is near infeed hopper, he must bewithin easy reach of feed control devices.

Use the wooden push paddle to push small materialinto the chipper, not your hands or feet.

WARNING!

1) WHEN FEEDING MATERIAL INTO THE INFEED HOPPER, ALWAYS FEED FROM THE SIDEOF THE INFEED TRAY AND THEN TURN AWAY FROM MATERIAL AND WALK AWAY ASWOOD FEEDS IN. CHIPPERS SHOULD BE FED FROM CURBSIDE (RIGHT SIDE)WHENEVER POSSIBLE. ANYTIME OPERATOR IS NEAR INFEED HOPPER, HE MUST BEWITHIN EASY REACH OF FEED CONTROL DEVICES.

2) DO NOT WASTE TIME WATCHING THE WOOD FEEDING. INSERT THE MATERIAL, GET MOREMATERIAL AND LAY IT ON TOP OF THE FEEDING WOOD. IT SAVES TIME!

3) IF YOU HAVE LARGE DIAMETER WOOD TO CHIP, TRY TO INSERT IT IN THE FEED WHEELSWHILE SMALLER PIECES ARE GOING THROUGH, THE SMALL PIECES WILL PARTIALLY OPENTHE FEED WHEELS WHICH ALLOWS EASIER ACCESS FOR THE LARGER DIAMETER WOOD.

4) DO NOT LUG THE ENGINE ON LARGE DIAMETER MATERIAL. LISTEN FOR THE ENGINE, IF ITSTARTS LOSING RPM, STOP THE FEED WHEELS FOR A FEW SECONDS TO ALLOWRECOVERY OF ENGINE RPM.

5) KEEP THE TOP WHEEL SPRINGS ADJUSTED ONLY TIGHT ENOUGH TO KEEP THE FEEDWHEEL TEETH FROM SLIPPING ON THE MATERIAL. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN! THIS WOULDOVERWORK THE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM AND MAKES IT VERY HARD TO FEED LARGERDIAMETER MATERIAL.

6) ALWAYS START THE LARGER END (BASE END) OF THE WOOD INTO THE FEED WHEELSFIRST.

7) KEEP THE CHIPPER RPM UP WHETHER CHIPPING BRUSH OR ROUNDWOOD. THE RPM ISNECESSARY FOR THROWING POWER. LOW RPM CAUSES WEAK THROWING AND CANCAUSE PLUGGING IN DISCHARGE.

8) NEVER OPEN CHIPPER HOOD WHILE DISC IS TURNING . AFTER SHUT OFF, ALLOW AT LEAST3 MINUTES FOR CUTTERWHEEL TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP.

DO NOT REACH INTO THE INFEED HOPPER FOR ANY REASON!IF YOU HAVE SHORT PIECES, SIMPLY LAY THEM ON TOPOF LONGER MATERIAL WHILE IT IS FEEDING INTO THE MACHINE.

OPERATION TIPS FOR BRUSH BANDIT

MODEL 65MODEL 65 CHIPBOX OPERATING PROCEDURES


MODEL 65MODEL 65 CHIPBOX OPERATING PROCEDURES

OPERATING PROCEDURESDANGER!

Never for any reason should you place your hands, orany other body part, near the feedwheel while it isturning.

DANGER!Never climb into the infeed hopper area, or attempt toclean, service, or unclog this area while the machineis in operation.

WARNING!If you have short pieces of wood, leaves, or twigs,

simply lay them on top of longer material while it isfeeding into the chipper. You can also use the woodenpush paddle supplied with the machine.

Always stand to the side of the infeed hopper wheninserting material. This will allow you to turn awayfrom the wood, and walk away, without passing throughthe material.

To increase production, don’t waste timewatching the material being fed. Once the limbs havestarted into the machine, you can walk away and getmore material.

If you have larger diameter wood, try to feed itwhile smaller pieces are going through. The smallerpieces will open the feedwheel, and allow the largerpieces through.

If you are feeding larger diameter wood, listen forthe engine to possibly lug down. If it starts luggingdown stop the feedwheel by pushing the hydrauliccontrol handle to off, and let the engine recover to fullspeed. This will stop the chipper from plugging thedischarge pipe.

Keep the feedwheel tension springs adjusted onlytight enough to keep the feedwheel teeth fromslipping on the material. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN!This will overwork the hydraulic system, and make itdifficult to feed larger material.

Always start the larger end (base end) of the logor branch into the feedwheel first.

Keep the engine R.P.M’s up whether you arechipping brush or round wood. Lower R.P.M.’s willcause weak throwing power, and can cause pluggingin the discharge.

DANGER!Never open the chipper hood while the disc is still

turning. After shutting off the chipper, allow at least 3minutes for the chipper disc to come to a complete stop.

It is very important after you have operated the newmachine for approximately an hour, shut down themachine and recheck all nuts and bolts. It is normal for

bolts to loosen once on a newpiece of machinery. If you tightenthem now, there’s a goodpossibility they won’t loosenagain. In cold weather situationslet your hydraulic system idle for

approximately 15 minutes to allow the system to warm upto operating temperature.

Never refuel while the chipper is running. Neverrefuel in the shop or building. Always refuel in a wellventilated area, away from sparks or open flames.Extinguish all smoking materials. Wipe up all spilled fuelbefore restarting the engine.

This equipment is intended for use by personnel whoare experienced with similar equipment. Always operatesafely. It is also recommended that someone else ispresent while chipping or servicing in case an injuryoccurs. Never operate any machine while under theinfluence of drugs or alcohol.

MAINTENANCE

PROCEDURE FOR UNPLUGGING YOUR CHIPPER

If your chipper is plugging, it is usually caused by allowing the engine to drop below requiredR.P.M.’s. This can be resolved by simply shutting the feedwheel off when the engine begins to lugdown. Operating the engine at speeds lower than full R.P.M.’s causes your chipper to plug. Always runthe chipper at full engine speed. If your chipper is equipped with the optional autofeed feature, makesure it is set correctly. The setting for the low R.P.M. stop must be high enough not to allow the chipperdischarge to plug. Dull chipper knives also contribute to chipper plugging. Dull knives can createslivers and chunks, causing the engine to lug excessively. Both of the aforementioned conditions causea plugging situation.

STEPS TO FOLLOW WHEN UNPLUGGING YOUR CHIPPER

1. Before attempting any type of maintenance disengage clutch, turn off engine, wait for the disc tocome to a complete stop, install the disc lock pin, disconnect battery, and make sure the ignitionkey is in your possession.

2. Make sure the chipper disc is NOT turning and then open the hinged portion of the chipper hood.

3. Using your gloved hands and some type of raking tool, dig the chips out of the chipper housing.

4. If the discharge pipe is plugged, use a raking tool to pull the majority of chips out of the openoutlet end of the pipe. Then, two people must remove the pipe. Do not attempt this with oneperson, because the pipe can fall causing injury.

5. Never allow one person to turn the chipper wheel when someone else is working inside thechipper housing. More than likely, the wheel will turn hard then loosen causing it to turn faster.If another person is anywhere near the cutter wheel, they may be injured.

6. Never turn the chipper disc by hand. Always use a pry bar. This will prevent the person turningthe disc from being injured should the disc break loose.

7. Reinstall the discharge pipe, mount securely and point it in a safe direction away from anything.

8. Never leave the chipper hood open and try to start the engine when engaging the wheel to blowchips out of the housing, this is very hard on the P.T.O. of the chipper and may burn clutchplates. Also, the flying debris is very dangerous. An exposed chipper disc turning very fastcreates an unsafe condition. In other words, DO NOT start the chipper with the hood openbecause it is just too dangerous.

9. Once the disc turns freely by hand, close the chipper hood, insert the hood pin, install thepadlock in the hood pin, re install the chipper hood engine disable plug, make sure the springlock for hood pin springs back to the correct operating position, start engine, properlyengage clutch and throttle to full speed. Insert a small branch into the feedwheel. If the chipsdischarge properly, the chipper is clear and normal operation may resume.



TIRE WEAR DIAGNOSTIC CHART Wear Pattern Cause Action

Center Wear Over Inflation Adjust pressure to particularload per tire catalog

Edge Wear Under Inflation Adjust pressure to particularload per tire catalog

Side Wear Not Hauling Trailer Level Must be hauled parallel to groundBent Axles Replace as neededWide Tires Characteristic of wide flotation tiresWheel Bearings Adjust or replace

Cupping Out-Of-Balance Check bearing adjustment and balance tiresWheel Bearings Adjust or replace

Flat Spots Wheel Lock Up & Tire Avoid sudden stops when possible andSkidding adjust brakes.

The wear pattern and tread life of tires involves many variables that the user has control of, but DOES NOTfall under faulty manufacture or design.

The following is a list of some causes supplied by tire suppliers and axle manufacturers:

• Misalignment - from rough roads, pot holes, excessive speeds and hitting curbs.• Tire Width - the wider the tire for flotation, the more uneven the tire wear.• Tire Air Pressure - to much or too little, for the load.• Vehicle Hitch Height - if trailer is not level with ground, axle camber is misaligned.• Maintenance - wheel bearing lubrication and adjustment. Follow axle MFG. instructions.• Brakes - uneven or mis-adjusted brakes cause irregular brake activation.

RECOMMENDED BRAKE ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE PER AXLE MANUFACTURER.The proper clearance between the shoe and drum surfaces will be set up initially from our factory to assureproper operation during the normal break in period. No further adjustment will be necessary until the vehiclecompletes the recommended break in period of 200 miles.

Since all brakes of this type must be burnished or “run in” before their full effectiveness can be achieved, theMFG. maintenance manuals call for readjustment after the first 200 miles of operation. This usually allowsample time for the burnishing to take place. Readjustments is not necessary for brakes fitted withself-adjustment features although periodic inspection is suggested.

The following shows the correct adjustment for the MFG. brakes of 7”, 10”, and 12 1/4” diameter.

Caution! Clearances that are too small will result in excessive drag and overheating while too muchclearance can render the brake nonfunctional.

For additional brake adjustment procedures consult the axle manufacturer manual.

HYDRAULIC SECTIONTHE BANDIT HYDRAULIC SYSTEM

The Bandit is equipped with a very efficient,simple hydraulic system. Each component iscapable of withstanding a specified PSI and stilloperate for a very long time. See page 41.

If you follow the simple rules mentioned below,the hydraulic components will last for years:

• Do not operate the machine if the hydraulic oillevel is low. This will cause the pump tocavitate and over heat. Keep min. 7/8 full tank.

• Do not increase the feedwheel relief valvesetting beyond 1500 PSI. This will causedamage to hydraulic components.

• Keep your oil clean. Dirty oil will causeexcessive wear and loss of feedwheel power.Replace spin on filter per maintenance chart.

• Replace the hydraulic oil suction screen & oilfilter with each 400 hours of operation or 3months. See page 47 for hydraulic oilrequirements.

• Replace your hydraulic oil once yearly. This isalso a very good time to flush and clean the tank.

• If you keep the Bandit’s hydraulic system cleanand do not increase the feedwheel hydraulicpressure beyond 1500 PSI, you will get themaximum use and life out of your Banditchipper.

• If you encounter a problem, it will more thanlikely be located in the relief valve or somethingas simple as belts slipping, check these first.

MAINTAIN FEEDWHEEL HYDRAULIC PRESSUREAT 1500 PSI.

HYDRAULIC COMPONENTS

FEEDWHEEL HYDRAULIC MOTOR:The hydraulic motor is attached to the feedwheel by atapered feedwheel motor connection.

PUMP:The hydrauic pump could be bolted directly tothe engine, or may be driven by a sheave/beltcombination off of the chipper shaft.

SUCTION STRAINER:This strainer stops contaminants from reaching thehydraulic pump. The suction strainer should bereplaced every 400 hours or 3 months.

HYDRAULIC TANK:This tank must be kept clean and filled minimum 7/8full. Clean tank yearly.

FILTER:This spin-on cartridge filter must be replaced permaintenance schedule.

FILTER MOUNT:The filter is tightened on the Filter Mount.

FEEDWHEEL VALVE:This valve is actuated by the control bar. The valveactuates the feedwheel for forward, off or reverse. Italso contains an adjustable relief valve.



HYDRAULIC PRESSURE ADJUSTMENT PROCEDUREFOR YOUR BANDIT CHIPPER.

The relief valve is typically located internally in the control valve. Do not adjust this relief valve above1500 PSI. The relief valve system is a simple spring tension design but small pieces of debris can stick thevalve partially open which weakens the feedwheel power. The relief as well as hydraulic oil, and screenmust be kept clean. 1. POPPIT VALVE:

This ball opens and closes to relieve excesspressure on hydraulic system.

2. RELIEF SPRING:This spring tensions the amount of pressurerequired to open the relief valve ball. Thisspring weakens and must be readjusted every3 months,

3. SLOTTED SET SCREW:Turn clockwise to increase pressure, but do notsurpass maximum of 1500 PSI.

4. HEX HEAD PLUG:Remove to access the relief valve.

CHECKING AND ADJUSTING OF RELIEF VALVE PRESSURE

1. First put control handle in neutral position.2. Disconnect one hose going from hydraulic motor

to control valve and plug that hose.3. Leave all other hydraulic hoses connected.4. Install pressure gauge in port left open from

the disconnected hose on the control valve.5. Start engine, and engage control handle to

normal operating position.6. Adjust engine to full throttle to activate reading

on pressure gauge.

7. Pressure gauge should read maximum 1500 PSI.ONLY RUN ENGINE FOR 4-5 SECONDS TOSET PRESSURE OR YOU MAY DAMAGEHYDRAULICS.

8. Readjust relief pressure setting if needed, if notneeded, shut off engine remove plug and gauge.Reassemble hydraulic hose to control valve.

9. Check for hydraulic leaks.10. Relief valve pressure should be checked and/or

readjusted every 3 months for best performance.

MAINTAIN FEEDWHEEL HYDRAULIC PRESSURE AT 1500 P.S.I.

WARNING!Before attempting any hydraulic pressure settings, make sure engine is shut off, engine key removed and inyour pocket. To correctly check relief valve pressure, gauge MUST be installed correctly.

2. The procedure to check the motor is simple but it requires great caution. Do not attempt to check your hydraulic motor without first consulting your local dealer or Bandit Industries.

BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY TYPE OF MAINTENANCE DISENGAGE CLUTCH, TURN OFFENGINE, WAIT FOR THE DISC TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP, INSTALL THE DISC LOCKPIN, DISCONNECT BATTERY, AND MAKE SURE THE IGNITION KEY IS IN YOUR POSSESSION.



CHIPPER SECTIONKnives should be replaced in sets. These sets aredetermined by the amount of resharpening done tothe knives. It should be reinstalled with another knifeof comparable usage.NEVER allow these knives to wear beyond absolutespecified minimum of distance from the center line ofbolt. See knife decals on page 30.

TROUBLE SHOOTING CHIPPER PROBLEMS

1) Chipper Makes Poor Quality Chips or DoesNot Feed Properly.

A. Knives have lost their edge. File, grind orreplace knives. DO NOT operate the Banditwith dull knives.

B. Knife anvil worn or needs adjustment(See Figure 1). Rotate, repair or replace.

C. Feedwheel is not operating correctly.(SEE HYDRAUILC TROUBLE SHOOTING).

D. The throat/base opening is a high-wear area.The feed plate anvil takes much of this wearbut other areas wear as well. Attention mustbe paid to any areas where outer, non-cuttingedges of chipper knife are exposed. Theseareas must be built up with weld to maintainthe original integrity.

E. Knives are at the wrong angle. Knives mustbe ground at a 31° degree angle.

F. Feedwheel teeth worn (REPLACE).G. Material being chipped is very small, dry or

rotting. This type of material does notproduce good chip quality.

2) Chipper Knife Hits Anvil.

A. Check the anvil clearance at the top andbottom of the knife by using a feeler gauge,

the clearance should be .045 to .065 fromthe highest knife.

B. Check the chipper front bearing retainer capfor tightness (SEE TORQUE CHART).

3) Discharge Plugs or Does Not Throw ChipsProperly.

A. Lugging engine on large material - keepengine RPM up.

B. Obstruction in discharge pipe. Patcheswelded into the pipe can cause obstructionof chip flow. Anything causing an obstructionwill cause the pipe to plug.

C. Chipping rotting material that has littlesubstance can also plug the discharge pipe.

D. Worn fan blades.

4) Chipper Bearings Running Too Hot.

A. Improper lubrication-grease bearings once aday with EP type grease.

B. Chipper disc operating at too high RPM’s.DO NOT exceed recommended RPM’s.

C. Front bearing retainer cap loose(SEE TORQUE CHART).

D. Bearings worn out (REPLACE).E. Set screws on sheave side bearing not tight.

MODEL 65MODEL 65 CHIPBOX FEEDWHEEL COUPLER SECTION

PROPER PROCEDURE FOR INSTALLATION AND REMOVALOF J.B. COUPLER AND TAPERED FEEDWHEEL MOTOR

A. Proper Equipment Needed:

1. Feedwheel motor with tapered shaft. 5. Emery cloth and/or a file.2. 3/16” x 3/16” x 3/4” long key for RS motor. 6. A degreaser agent.3. Correct feedwheel shaft, coupler and taper 7. Pack nut.

pin assembly. 8. Hammer.4. Loctite-271. 9. Torque wrench and

1 3/16” socket RS motor

B. Installation Procedure1. Remove any sharp edges on the coupler bores or the motor shaft.

Example: Emery cloth or file for burrs on keyways or shafts.2. Clean the coupler bores and motor shaft with a degreasing solvent.3. Install the correct key in the feedwheel motor shaft.4. Slide the coupler onto the motor shaft, making sure that the two mate tightly.

Example: The coupler does not rock or slop on the shaft.5. Install the pack nut with Loctite-271 on the threads.6. Tighten to the correct torque of 150-170 ft. lbs.7. Slightly tap with a hammer on the coupler face to insure proper seating.8. Re-torque pack nut.9. Deburr and degrease the feedwheel shaft.10. Install the motor and coupler assembly onto the feedwheel shaft.11. Install the correct tapered pin through the coupler and feedwheel motor.12. Hammer the pin into the coupler to secure the coupler and feedwheel shaft.

PRESS TOOL FOR COUPLER PIN REMOVAL CAUTION! Always wear proper safety equipment and take caution withtapered pin when attempting to remove. The use of this tool will assist inthe removal of tapered pin in feedwheel coupler. Lubricate end of bolt andthreads with grease. Position the press tool so that it cradles the coupler,

with the large end of the tapered pin at the side opposite the press bolt. You may want to remove yoke springsto get easier access to coupler. Set the tool as described and hand tighten press bolt to snug tool againstcoupler. Make sure press bolt is set on small end of tapered pin, and that pin will go thru hole in tool withoutinterference. Use of a 1/2” impact wrench is recommended. Run impact on bolt to start pin removal, thenusually a good hit with hammer on the end of bolt will knock out the pin. You may have to run impact on bolt andhit with hammer a few times to remove pin.
