SHREDDING
Yardwastesuchas leavesand pine needlescan be placedin the
hopperfor shredding.After materialhas beenprocessedbythe shred-
der blade andflails, it will be forcedout of the chutedeflector,and, if
attached,into a debriscollectionbag.
Observethe followingguidelineswhenshreddingyarddebris:
•
Neverattemptto shredmaterialotherthan normalyarddebris
(leaves,twigs, pinecones,etc.).
•
Avoidshreddingfibrousplants suchas tomatovines,palmfronds,
etc., untiltheyare thoroughlydriedout. Freshvines do notshred
welland tend to wrapthemselvesaroundthe impellerand flails.
•
Placereasonableamountsof debrisintothe hopperat a time. Do
not overloadthe hopper.
•
Allowthe materialin the hopperto be drawnintothe bladesand
shreddedbeforeaddingadditionaldebristo the hopper.Failureto
due so may resultin a cloggedhopper,cloggedchute deflectoror
a stalledengine.
CHIPPING
Branchesup to 3" in diametercan be fed intothe chipperchute.
Observethe followingguidelineswhenchippingbranches:
•
Keepbothhandsfirmlyon the branchas youfeed it intothe
chipperchute.
•
Neverfeed morethan one branchintothe chipperchute at a time.
•
Neverfeed anythingotherthan branches(or wood) intothe
chipperchute.
•
Apply intermittentpressure(force,in short pulses)whilefeeding
larger(3-inchdiameter)branchesinto thechipperchute,to avoid
boggingor stallingthe engine.
IMPORTANT: N everfeed brancheswith a diametergreaterthan
three (3) inches intothe chipperchute.Doingso can resultin serious
damageto yourunit'schipperblades,flailsor impeller.
NOTE:Forbest performance, a lwaysoperatethe unitwith sharp
chipperblades.If a noticeableloss in performanceisencountered
whilechippingbranches,the chipperbladesshouldbe replaced.
LOWERING
THE HOPPER
ASSEMBLY
1.
With one hand graspthe handleat the topof the hopperassem-
blyand lift slightly.
2.

IMPORTANT: The flail screenis locatedinsidethe housingin the
dischargearea. If the flail screenbecomesclogged,removeand
cleanas instructedin the Serviceand Maintenance section.For best
performance, i t is also importantto keepthe chipperbladessharp.
