position.
6.
Adjust the throttle to achieve the desired
operating speed.
7.
Once the engine is hot, it is not necessary to
use the choke when restarting.
8.
Do not restart the unit with material in the
chipper tube or shredder chute. The additional
drag may cause severe wear on the drive belt
or you may damage the pull starter on the
engine.
IMPORTANT: NEVER PUT YOUR HANDS OR
FINGERS IN THE CHIPPER TUBE. FOR THE
PROTECTION OF OTHERS, DO NOT LEAVE
THE MACHINE UNATTENDED WHEN IT IS
RUNNING. THE M/C WILL NOT OPERATE
WITHOUT THE CHIPPER CHUTE ATTACHED.
Branches up to 65mm diameter can be
1.
chipped using the chipper tube on the right
side of the unit. Green timber will chip much
faster than dry timber. Do not chip wood that
contains nails.
If the unit cannot be placed on the surface on

which the chips will be spread, then a sheet of
plastic or canvas can be laid under the
machine to collect the chips.
NOTE: DO NOT MOVE THE UNIT WITH THE
ENGINE
RUNNING.
TILTING MAY STARVE THE ENGINE OF OIL
AND CAUSE IT TO SEIZE.
If the engine is slowing substantially while
3.
chipping, reduce the rate you are feeding
branches into the machine. This will also
make the resultant chips smaller and will
extend the life of the drive.
Alternatively, check if the blade is blunt.
NOTE: DO NOT throw the end of branches
that are larger than 15mm diameter into the
shredder chute. Push them down the chipper
tube using another piece of wood.
Rotating the branches as you chip can reduce
4.
the incidence of bark wrapping around the
shaft and causing jamming.
5.
Branches with multiple smaller branches
connected can be fed into the chipper tube
until you are left with a handful of small leaves
and branches. This handful can then be
dropped into the shredder chute.
6.
If the chipper becomes jammed, the engine
should be stopped immediately (if it has not
stalled). Remove the offending material before
restarting. This may involve lowering the
shredder
mesh,
assembly backwards (with the spark plug
disconnected) and prising the material out of
the tube with a long knife, screwdriver etc.

NOTE: DO NOT continue chipping if the drive
belt is slipping or smoking. To readjust the
belt, see maintenance information.
NEVER operate the machine with the small
maintenance cover plate in its open position
or removed. Serious injury would result if
someone put their finger into the hole which is
under the cover plate.
DANGER:
A. DO NOT PUSH MATERIAL INTO
THE SHREDDER CHUTE WITH
YOUR HANDS. USE A GREEN
BRANCH
SOFTWOOD.
B. WEAR EYE PROTECTION.
1.
Many organic materials as well as leaves and
branches can be shredded. Vines will need to
be cut into short lengths (about 300mm)
before feeding them into the shredder chute
as they may wrap around the shaft. This could
cause jamming of the unit and cause severe
injury to the operator.
IMPORTANT:
SHRED
OBJECTS
METAL, PLASTIC BOTTLES OR ROCKS.
2.
Preferably wear gloves when feeding small
branches into the shredder chute, hold the
branches loosely and release them long
before they contact the rotating blades.
BEWARE OF A SUDDEN JERK AS THE
BRANCHES ARE
SHREDDER.
3.
Branches over 15mm diameter will rattle
around inside the shredder for some time and
may damage the shredding screen. These
branches should be fed into the chipper tube
instead.
4.
Leaves shred very well, especially if they don't
contain long sticks and they are kept loosely
stacked in the shredder chute, i.e. don't force
them down the chute if it becomes clogged.
Stop the engine and free the jam.
5.
Keep watching the area under the machine to
ensure that the shredded material has not
built up to the point where further shredded
material cannot escape. This may prevent
proper discharge and could cause kickback of
material through the feed opening. Move the
machine backwards a short distance as
material builds up underneath.
6.
Control the rate of feeding material into the
shredder chute so that the motor is not
overloaded. In particular, try to avoid rapid
changes
in
instantaneous bulk feeding.
DANGER: NEVER PUT YOUR HANDS OR FEET
UNDER THE MACHINE WHEN IT IS RUNNING.
