TO FREE A JAMMED FLYWHEEL
•Stop the engine.
•Remove both spark plug wires and keep away from spark plugs.
•Disconnect battery at negative terminal.
•Remove any material left in the chipper hopper.
•Remove discharge chute weldment.
NOTE: Never pry against the scroll weldment when removing the discharge chute or at any other time. This will cause damage to the machine.
•Check to see if discharge chute is clogged. If it is, clear with a long branch.
•With a wooden stick, loosen and remove any material left in the chipping chamber.
•Reinstall discharge chute weldment. Be sure to install the discharge chute so that it engages the safety switch properly, allowing the machine to be restarted.
NOTE: The machine will not run without the discharge chute in place. It has been designed this way for your safety. Never attempt to alter this as damage to the machine or injury to yourself or others near by will occur.
•Reconnect battery and spark plug wires.
•Start machine and let material in chipping chamber discharge through chute.
•If chamber doesn’t clear and the flywheel is still jammed, repeat above process.
•Be certain chipping chamber is clear before trying to process more material into the chipper.
