Throttle Control

FIGURE 9o

eMove throttle control to IDLE position for a few min- utes warm-up Move choke lever to RUN position as engine warms up

NOTE: In order to idle smoothly, a new engine may require 3 to 5 minutes running above slow idle speed Idle speed has been adjusted to be correct after this break-in period_

TO STOPENGINE

o Move throttle control lever to STOP position See figure 9

e Disconnect spark plug wire and move away from spark plug to prevent accidental starting while equipment is unattended

HOWTO USEYOURCHIPPER-SHREDDER

Do not attempt to shred or chip any material other than vegetation found in a normal yard (ie, branches, leaves, twigs, etc,)

WARNING: THE CHIPPER-SHREDDER DISCHARGES MATERIALS WITH CON- SIDERABLE VELOCITY. KEEP AWAY FROM THE AREA AROUND THE CHUTE

DEFLECTOR. ALWAYS STOP THE

ENGINE AND DISCONNECT THE SPARK PLUG WIRE WHEN REMOVING

OR ATTACHING THE BAG WHEN

CHANGING CONTAINERS OR WHEN REMOVING THE SHREDDED MATERI- AL. WEAR SAFETY GLASSES AND

GLOVES WHENEVER USING YOUR CHIPPER-SHREDDER.

The chipper-shredder is designed for three different methods of operation

eLeaves and small branches up to 1/2" diameter can be fed into the hopper assembly when it is in the raised position See figure 10 If it becomes neces-

sary to push material into the chipper-shredder, use a small diameter stick--NOT YOUR HANDS

The stick should be small enough that it will be ground up if gets into the impeller assembly

WARNING: DO NOT PUT MATERIAL LARGER THAN 1/2" IN DIAMETER INTO

THE HOPPER ASSEMBLY. MATERIAL UP TO A MAXIMUM OF 3" IN DIAMETER MATERIAL MAY BE FED INTO THE

CHIPPER CHUTE. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO SHRED OR CHIP ANY MATERIAL LARGER THAN 3" IN DIAMETER. PER- SONAL INJURY OR DAMAGE TO THE MACHINE COULD RESULT.
