Operating Instructions

This machine was built to be operated according to the rules for safe operation in this manual. As with any type of power equipment, carelessness or error on the part of the operator can result in serious injury.

Always wear hearing and eye protection while operating this machine or if you are within 75 feet of this machine.

IMPORTANT: This unit is shipped without

gasoline or oil in the engine.

Be certain to fill the engine with gasoline and

oil as instructed before operating your

machine.

Add

Gasoline and Oil

Step 1: Add gasoline

Step 2: Add 10W-30 oil until the oil is about to overflow from the oil fill spout. (see page 2 for capacity) A low oil sensor will prevent the engine from running unless the oil is COMPLETELY FULL. Ensure both oil fill plugs are secure after filling.

Never fill fuel tank indoors with engine running or until the engine has been allowed to cool for at least two minutes after running.

Starting the Engine

Step 3: Attach spark plug wire to spark plug. Make certain the plug wire on the end of the spark plug is fastened securely over the metal tip on the spark plug.

Step 4: Move choke lever on engine to CHOKE position. (A warm engine may not require choking).

Step 5: Turn the fuel valve to the ON position.

Step 6: Grasp starter handle and pull rope out slowly until engine reaches start of compression cycle (rope will pull slightly harder at this point). Pull rope with a rapid, continuous, full arm stroke. Keep a firm grip on starter handle. Let the rope rewind slowly. Repeat the previous steps until engine fires.

Rapid retraction of the recoil starter cord can pull the starter cord back faster than you can let go. When starting the engine, pull the cord slowly until resistance is felt then pull rapidly to avoid kickback.

NOTE: A noise will be heard when finding the start of the compression cycle. This noise is caused by the flails and fingers, which are part of the shredding mechanism, and it should be expected until the impeller reaches full speed.

Step 7: When engine starts, move choke control gradually to the RUN position.

Using the Chipper Shredder

Yard waste such as leaves and pine needles can be raked up and placed in the chipper funnel for shredding. DO NOT PUT BRANCHES

LARGER THAN 1/4” DIAMETER INTO THE LEAF FUNNEL. LARGER BRANCHES SHOULD BE FED INTO THE LIMB CHUTE.

When using the limb chute to chip branches, it is important to let the chipper feed the branches through automatically. DO NOT attempt to force the branches through. If the branches do not automatically feed through, gently push the branch and then allow the chipper to automatically feed the branch through.

Once material is shredded by the hammers on the impeller assembly, it is discharged through the open discharge chute.

Do not attempt to shred or chip any material other than normal yard vegetation found (i.e., branches, leaves, twigs, etc.) Avoid fibrous, wet vegetation such as tomato vines until they are thoroughly dried. Twigs and small branches can be fed into the limb chute. (See model specifications for maximum cutting thickness.)

IMPORTANT: The hammer screen is located inside the housing in the discharge area. If the screen becomes clogged, remove and clean as instructed. For best performance, it is also important to keep the chipper blades sharp.

If the discharge area becomes clogged:

∙ Stop the engine. Disconnect spark plug wire from spark plug and ground against the engine.

∙ Remove leaf funnel

∙ Reach in and clear the debris causing the blockage. Reinstall the funnel and the clean out access hatch.

∙ Connect the spark plug wire and restart.

NOTE: If the blockage is severe, the hammer screen within the discharge chute can be removed as well, providing greater access. To accomplish this, remove the discharge chute and the flail screen out of the discharge chute.
