    Emergency stop The C45 has two emergency stops on the top of the inlet chute. The emergency stops act as an immediate kill switch to the engine. It does not immediately stop the rotor from spinning. The rotor will continue to spin for some time due to its rotational inertia. The feed roller, however, will stop almost immediately.

    Increase throttle to maximum for chipping (move the control throttle lever to the highest position). (max) Note: Engine must run at full throttle for the automatic feed control system to operate correctly. Hansa C45 O&M Manual – OM-027 First Release 4/05/2021 © Hansa Chippers 2021...

     Blunt knives result in damage to the chipper How to re-sharpen the knives: If you don’t have a surface grinder or are unsure how to re-sharpen the knives, contact a professional saw doctor or Hansa to arrange re-sharpening. WARNING! Be careful when working around the sharp knives.
  • Page 19 Note: You do not need to sharpen your knives unless both sides of the reversible knives have been used. Hansa C45 O&M Manual – OM-027 First Release 4/05/2021 © Hansa Chippers 2021...
  • Page 20 WARNING! Every time the knife clamping bolts are torqued up to 190 Nm and loosened off again, the life of the bolts is reduced. The knife clamping bolts must be replaced at most after every six sharpens. Contact Hansa for replacement bolts (M16x50 countersunk bolts of grade 12.9 and Zinc finish).
  • Page 21: Anvil Adjustment

    If both sides of the anvil are blunt: remove the anvil and replace it with a new one. Contact Hansa if a replacement anvil is required. Tighten the clamping bolts, ensuring there is a spring washer between the clamping plate and each nut. Torque the nuts to 44 Nm.
  • Page 22: Belt Tension

    Belt tension Correct belt tension is crucial for minimising belt wear and maximising machine efficiency. The C45 uses a flexible tensioning device (shown in blue below). The tension of the device is set by adjusting the angle of how much the device flexes.
