Use the tamper to assist in feeding branches into the chipper chute.

Apply intermittent pressure (force, in short pulses) while feeding larger (2- 3-inch diameter) branches into the chipper chute, to avoid bogging or stalling the engine.

IMPORTANT: Never feed branches with a diameter greater than three (3) inches into the chipper chute. Doing so can result in serious damage to your unit’s chipper blades, flails or impeller.

NOTE: For best performance, always operate the unit with sharp chipper blades. If a noticeable loss in performance is encountered while chipping branches, the chipper blades should be replaced.

Emptying the Debris Collection Bag

Stop engine.

Squeeze the locking buckle release the bag’s drawstrap before loosening it from the discharge chute. See Figure 6.
