To keep the blades sharp, only feed the machine with clean brushwood. DO NOT put muddy/dirty wood, roots, potted plants, bricks, stones or metal into the chipper. OPERATOR'S PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT REQUIRED Chainsaw safety helmet fitted with mesh visor and recommended ear defenders to the appropriate specifications. Close fitting heavy-duty non-snag clothing. Work gloves with elasticated wrist. Face mask if appropriate. Steel toe cap...

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS BLADE WEAR The most important part of using a wood chipper is keeping the cutter blades sharp. Timberwolf chipper blades are hollow ground to an angle of 40 degrees. When performing daily blade checks ensure blade edge is sharp and free from chips, if there is any evidence of damage, or the edge is “dull” change the blade(s). The TW 13/75G is fitted with one blade 177 mm (7") long. It is 43 mm wide when new. A new blade should chip for up to 25 hours before it requires sharpening. This figure will be drastically reduced by feeding the machine with stony, sandy or...
