18” DRUM MACHINE CONTROLS

• Two hydraulic valves control the winch
on this chipper. The hydraulic selector
valve diverts hydraulic fluid from the
feed roller circuit and enables the
hydraulic winch circuit. Once the
hydraulic winch circuit is enabled the
winch control valve controls the
hydraulic winch motor.
• The chipper winch selector switch is
located on the hydraulic control lever
panel. There is a decal that shows the
proper operation (pictured at the right).
Push the switch to the left to turn the
feed wheels on and to the right to turn
the winch on.
• The winch control lever is the third lever
on the hydraulic control lever panel.
There is a decal next to the lever to
show proper operation of the winch
control. After the rope has been
attached to the tree, push the lever in
to pull the tree to the chipper. Also
use this lever position to rewind the
rope.
Pull the lever back to release the
pressure on the rope to remove the
rope from the tree once it has been
pulled to the chipper and has been
put into position to be run through
the chipper.
After use of the winch is finished use
the winch control lever to rewind and
secure the rope before running the
feed wheels. (The winch selector
will have to be turned back to the
Feed Wheels On position to feed the
tree through the chipper.)

OPERATE THE WINCH CONTROL
VALVE WHILE AN OPERATOR IS
IN THE VICINITY OF THE WINCH
ROPE!!! ROPE BURNS OR OTHER
INJURIES COULD OCCUR IF THE
