Controls & Operation

ENGINE CONTROLS

A.Ignition Switch — has three positions: START, RUN, and OFF. START cranks the engine for start- ing. RUN disengages the starter and allows the unit to run or be started with the recoil starter. OFF stops the engine.

B.Primer — assists in starting the engine by injecting fuel directly into the venturi of the carburetor.

C.Throttle/Stop Switch — controls the engine speed and has three positions: FAST, IDLE, and STOP. FAST runs the engine at maximum speed. This is the setting used while chipping and shredding. IDLE runs the engine at its slowest speed. Use idle to reduce stress on the engine when chipping or shred- ding is not being performed. STOP stops the engine.

D.Recoil Starter — is used to pull the engine over by hand for manual starting.

START-UP

The controls required to start and run the chipper/shred- der are located on the engine, see Engine Controls. Also see the engine manual for engine related information.

4.Electric start: Turn the ignition key to the start posi- tion. Crank the engine until it starts.

Manual start: Pull recoil starter rope rope out and allow rope to return normally. Repeat until the engine starts.

Cold Starts

1.Install spark plug wire.

2.Push the primer three times.

3.Move throttle lever to the fast position.

4.Place foot on front support leg to hold unit firmly in place, and adopt a stable stance.

5.Electric start: Turn the ignition key to the start posi- tion. Crank the engine until it starts.

Manual start: Pull recoil starter rope rope out and allow rope to return normally. Repeat until the engine starts.

6.Leave the throttle in the fast position for chipping and shredding.

NOTE: Because engines function differently under dif- ferent conditions, the engine may need to be primed more or less than 3 times. You must determine what procedure works best for your conditions.

Restarting A Warm Engine

Restarting an engine that is already warm from previous running does not normally require as much priming.

1.Press the primer once.

2.Move throttle lever to the fast position.

3.Place foot on front support leg to hold unit firmly in place, and adopt a stable stance.

5.Leave the throttle in the fast position for chipping and shredding.

NOTE: Because engines function differently under dif- ferent conditions, the engine may need to be primed more or less than 1 time. You must determine what pro- cedure works best for your conditions.

SHUTTING DOWN

When you’re done using the chipper/shredder, following these simple but worthwhile steps will help you shut down the unit properly so that your next use will be trou- ble-free.

1.When you have completed processing the materials to be chipped or shredded, shut the engine off and allow the rotor to come to a complete stop before proceeding.

2.Remove the spark plug wire from the spark plug to prevent the possibility of inadvertent starting.

3.Inspect the following areas for any remaining materi- als that may have built up or become caught during the final chipping and shredding operations:

•Shredder Hopper

•Chipper Cone

•Discharge Chute

•Engine Recoil Starter Area
