To help you get the most out of your investment, as well as to help you understand how the unit works, this section explains the basic operation of the chipper/ shredder.
CHECKS BEFORE ST ARTING 1. Inspect the chipper cone and shredder hopper for debris and other objects that may have fallen into the machine while the unit was idle, and remove them before starting the unit. Before reaching into the openings, always disconnect the spark plug wire at the spark plug.
Never wrap your fingers around tree limbs and branches so tightly that you can’t let go quickly if the tree limb or branch is suddenly pulled into the chipper block or shred- der hopper area.
