SAFETY RULES  
ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED!  
Make sure spring-activated locking pin or collar  
slides freely and is seated firmly in tractor PTO  
spline groove.  
Safety is a primary concern in the design and  
manufacture of our products. Unfortunately, our  
efforts to provide safe equipment can be wiped  
out by an operator’s single careless act.  
Make sure all safety decals are installed.  
Replace if damaged. (See Safety Decals section for  
location.)  
In addition to the design and configuration of  
equipment, hazard control and accident preven-  
tion are dependent upon the awareness, con-  
cern, judgement, and proper training of  
personnel involved in the operation, transport,  
maintenance, and storage of equipment.  
Make sure shields and guards are properly  
installed and in good condition. Replace if damaged.  
OPERATION

diverted into a container or onto the ground.  
this chipper. The operator must be properly trained.  
Operators should be familiar with the tractor, chipper,  
and all safety practices before starting operation. Read  
the safety rules and safety decals on page 5 through  
page 11.  
As with any other piece of power equipment, getting to  
know the feel for how your machine operates and get-  
ting to know the best techniques for particular jobs are  
important to overall good performance.  
NOTE: For operation of this chipper, references to  
right, left, forward, and rearward directions are deter-  
mined from the operator’s position in the tractor seat.  
Safety instructions are important! Read all  
attachment and power unit manuals; follow all  
safety rules and safety decal information. (Replace-  
ment manuals and safety decals are available from  
your dealer. To locate your nearest dealer, check  
or in the United States and Canada call 1-800-319-  
6637.) Failure to follow instructions or safety rules  
can result in serious injury or death.  
ATTACHING CHIPPER TO TRACTOR

2. Attach tractor top link to chipper clevis and secure  
with tractor top link pin.  
Never allow children or untrained persons to  
operate equipment.  
3. Connect driveline to tractor PTO shaft.  
NOTE: The minimum and maximum telescoping  
on the PTO shaft is 18.11 inches to 24.49 inches.  
The PTO shaft may need to be shortened depend-  
ing on the tractor the chipper is mounted on. To  
shorten the PTO shaft see Shorten Driveline, page  
26.  
Always wear relatively tight and belted clothing  
to avoid getting caught in moving parts. Wear  
sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and protective  
equipment for eyes, hair, hands, hearing, and head;  
and respirator or filter mask where appropriate.  
Make sure attachment is properly secured,  
adjusted, and in good operating condition.  
4. Slide slip collar back or push slip pin in to make  
connection.  
Do not put chipper into service unless all  
shields and guards are in place and in good condi-  
tion. Replace if damaged.  
5. Make sure connection is secure. Slip collar or slip  
pin should snap back into original position.  
6. Adjust the tractor 3-point arm anti-sway devices to  
prevent chipper from swaying side-to-side during  
transport. Adjust top link so chipper is level front to  
back.

ing the rotor to speed up gradually, increase the throttle  
to full throttle position. Engaging the clutch too quickly  
with the engine at full or half throttle will bog down the  
engine and will shorten the life of the belt.  
TRACTOR STABILITY  
A minimum 20% of tractor and equipment  
weight must be on the tractor front wheels when  
attachments are in transport position. Without this  
weight, front tractor wheels could raise up result-  
ing in loss of steering. The weight may be attained  
with front wheel weights, ballast in tires or front  
tractor weights. Weigh the tractor and equipment.  
Do not estimate.

link from tractor.  
3. Place drive shaft in storage position up off the  
ground.  
1. Run chipper at full operating speed before starting  
to chop material.  
CLEANING  
2. Select limbs that are up to 4-1/2 inches in diameter.  
Trim side branches that cannot be bent enough to  
feed into the chipper hopper. Hold small diameter  
branches together in a bundle and feed in together.  
After Each Use  
Remove large debris such as clumps of dirt, grass,  
crop residue, etc. from machine.  
3. Make sure pieces of metal, rocks, cans, and other  
foreign objects are removed before feeding  
chipable material into the machine.  
Inspect machine and replace worn or damaged  
parts.  
Replace any safety decals that are missing or not  
readable.  
4. Feed brush from the side of the chipper hopper to  
avoid being hit by the brush moving into the  
chipper.  
Periodically or Before Extended Storage  
5. Do not lean over the chipper hopper to push  
objects into the chipper. Use a push stick or brush  
paddle.  
Clean large debris such as clumps of dirt, grass,  
crop residue, etc. from machine.  
Remove the remainder using a low-pressure water  
spray.  
6. Never use a shovel or fork to feed brush into the  
chute. They can be chipped, are expensive to  
replace, and cause extensive damage to the  
chipper. Metal pieces can be ejected from the  
chipper hopper and cause serious injury or death.  
Be careful when spraying near scratched or torn  
safety decals or near edges of decals as water  
spray can peel decal off surface.  
Be careful when spraying near chipped or  
scratched paint as water spray can lift paint.  
7. Never feed brush into the chipper hopper with your  
feet.  
If a pressure washer is used, follow the advice of  
the pressure washer manufacturer.  
8. Place limb, butt end first, into the chipper hopper  
until it contacts the chipper blades. The actual feed  
rate of the limb into the chipper will depend on the  
type of material fed and sharpness of the cutting  
blades.  
Inspect machine and replace worn or damaged  
parts.  
Sand down scratches and the edges of areas of  
missing paint and coat with Woods spray paint of  
matching color (purchase from your Woods  
dealer).  
9. Stop the material feeding and allow the engine to  
recover if the engine slows to where it may stall.

Blade Servicing  
Blade Sharpening  
The chipper blades will eventually become dull, making  
chipping difficult and adding strain on the machine.  
Poor chipping performance is usually a result of dull  
chipper blades. It is recommended that the blades be  
sharpened every 5 to 15 hours or if the chipper’s per-  
formance has decreased. Check for the following  
symptoms and sharpen the blades as needed.  
1. Never sharpen or grind the mounting surface of the  
blades. This will cause the edge to roll and the  
blade will be damaged, resulting in poor chipping  
performance.  
2. Regrind the angled edge of the chipper blade to  
45-degrees. See Figure 6.  
3. The blades can be ground on a bench grinder of a

hold the blade at the proper angle.  
5. Be careful when grinding so that the blades does  
not become overheated and change color. This will  
remove the heat-treated properties.

blade to maintain rotor balance.  
The disk is restrained to remove blade.  
8. Small imperfections such as nicks and burrs on the  
flat side of the blade will not affect the chipping  
performance of the machine,  
3. Remove blade by removing lock nuts from chipper  
disk.  
4. Inspect blades for cracks or nicks in cutting edge.  
9. For blades that have been repeatedly sharpened,  
make sure that the sharpened surface extends  
past the chipping slot opening. If it does not extend  
past the opening, the blades must be replaced.  
5. Turn cutting edge over and use new edge or  
sharpen if both edges have been used.  
6. Remove disk lock, rotate chipper disk, align holes,  
insert disk lock, and remove blade, turn cutting  
edge or sharpen second blade.

Under no circumstances will this Warranty apply in the event that the product, in the good faith opinion of WOODS, has been subjected to  
improper operation, improper maintenance, misuse, or an accident. This Warranty does not apply in the event that the product has been materially  
modified or repaired by someone other than WOODS, a WOODS authorized dealer or distributor, and/or a WOODS authorized service center.  
This Warranty does not cover normal wear or tear, or normal maintenance items. This Warranty also does not cover repairs made with parts other  
than those obtainable through WOODS.  
This Warranty is extended solely to the original purchaser of the product. Should the original purchaser sell or otherwise transfer this product to a  
third party, this Warranty does not transfer to the third party purchaser in any way. There are no third party beneficiaries of this Warranty.  
WOODS makes no warranty, express or implied, with respect to engines, batteries, tires or other parts or accessories not manufactured by  
WOODS. Warranties for these items, if any, are provided separately by their respective manufacturers.  
WOODS’ obligation under this Warranty is limited to, at WOODS’ option, the repair or replacement, free of charge, of the product if WOODS, in  
its sole discretion, deems it to be defective or in noncompliance with this Warranty. The product must be returned to WOODS with proof of  
purchase within thirty (30) days after such defect or noncompliance is discovered or should have been discovered, routed through the  
dealer and distributor from whom the purchase was made, transportation charges prepaid. WOODS shall complete such repair or  
replacement within a reasonable time after WOODS receives the product. THERE ARE NO OTHER REMEDIES UNDER THIS WARRANTY.  
THE REMEDY OF REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT IS THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY UNDER THIS WARRANTY.  
THERE ARE NO WARRANTIES WHICH EXTEND BEYOND THE DESCRIPTION ON THE FACE OF THIS WARRANTY. WOODS  
MAKES NO OTHER WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AND WOODS SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY  
OF MERCHANTABILITY AND/OR ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  
WOODS shall not be liable for any incidental or consequential losses, damages or expenses, arising directly or indirectly from the  
product, whether such claim is based upon breach of contract, breach of warranty, negligence, strict liability in tort or any other legal  
theory. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Woods specifically disclaims any damages relating to (i) lost profits, business, revenues  
or goodwill; (ii) loss of crops; (iii) loss because of delay in harvesting; (iv) any expense or loss incurred for labor, supplies, substitute machinery or  
rental; or (v) any other type of damage to property or economic loss.  
This Warranty is subject to any existing conditions of supply which may directly affect WOODS’ ability to obtain materials or manufacture  
replacement parts.  
No agent, representative, dealer, distributor, serviceperson, salesperson, or employee of any company, including without limitation, WOODS, its  
authorized dealers, distributors, and service centers, is authorized to alter, modify, or enlarge this Warranty. Answers to any questions regarding
