SHREDDING TIPS
Feed material into the chipper/shredder slowly. If the engine begins to
bog down, you are feeding too fast. Roots and dirty material will dull
or damage the blades. Remove the chips often. Allowing the chips to
pile up to the outlet will cause the outlet to clog. Avoid shredding wet
leaves or brush to reduce clogging. If you must shred wet material,
alternate wet and dry material.
CHIPPING BRANCHES
Stand to the side of the hopper and make sure you have a stable
stance and firm footing.
Remove twigs and smaller branches from the branch if they might
catch on the edges of the funnel and prevent the branch from going in.
Place branches into the funnel, thick end first, and allow the blades to
draw the branch into the funnel.
When finished chipping, turn OFF the machine, allow all moving
parts to come to a complete stop, and disconnect the spark plug wire
before moving the machine, emptying the bag, unclogging the inlets or
outlets, filling the gas tank, or performing
maintenance and repairs.
CHIPPING TIPS
DO NOT feed material in excess of the diameter indicated on the
funnel cover into the funnel. Large branches will cause the motor to
stall. Chipping wood when it is green is easier on the machine. The
blades will stay sharper longer. The chipper/shredder will work best if
the blades are sharp. Rotate, sharpen, or replace the blades as soon
as chipper/shredder performance begins to deteriorate.
