Yes. Before one of them puts themselves through it!

Just put a sign above the infeed saying "please do not insert any body parts, as the clean up is time consuming for the other staff"

You insert all or nothing into this chipper 🙂

Plus a load of paperwork!

Granted one has to question someone with a CS30/31 that's not dragged a bit of brash.

 

No I'm not saying training isn't a bad idea.

As said above its bassicaly ok till something goes wrong and someone gets hurt and then someone will be in the shit,, one thing i will add is if you do go for the training and tickets do a ticket for a tracked chipper as that will cover every other chipper, if you did a ticket for a tow behind chipper it wont cover the tracked chipper, i know its a bit arsey but its not long since some lads up here where chucked of a railway job for using a hired in tracked chipper and only having the tow behind certificates,,

Everyone should have read the original Operator's Manual as a minimum! 

And signed to say they have read and understood the manual

Is there a difference?  When I did the ticket it was one ticket covers all manually fed chippers.  That was NPTC and did two training courses but only one ticket back in 2014.

yes, as the tracked ticket takes in refitting  and re tensioning the track correctly if one is thrown off,,
