KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE
Safe operating practices
Training
Become familiar with the owner's manual before attempting to operate this equipment.
Preparation
1) Do not allow children to operate this equipment;
2) Do not operate this equipment in the vicinity of bystanders;
3) Do not run engine powered machines in an enclosed area since the exhaust from an engine
contains carbon monoxide, which is colourless, odourless, and tasteless; carbon monoxide can be
extremely dangerous in enclosed areas;
4) Wear ear protection and safety glasses at all times while operating the machine;
5) Avoid wearing clothing that is loose fitting or that has hanging cords or ties;
6) Only operate the machine in open space (e.g. not close to a wall or other fixed object) and on a
firm, level surface;
7) Do not operate the machine on a paved or gravel surface where ejected material could cause
injury;
8) Before starting the machine, check that all screws, nuts, bolts, and other fasteners are properly
secured and that guards and screens are in place. Replace damaged or unreadable labels;
9) Use extra care in handling fuels. They are flammable and the vapours are explosive. The
following points should be observed:
use only an approved container;
Never remove the fuel cap or add fuel with the power source running. Allow engine and exhaust
components to cool before refuelling;
do not smoke;
never refuel the machine indoors;
never store the machine or fuel container inside where there is an open flame, such as a water
heater;
if fuel is spilled, do not attempt to start the power source, but move the machine away from the
area of spillage before starting;
always replace and securely tighten the fuel cap after refuelling;
If the fuel tank is drained, this should be done outdoors.
Operation
1) Before starting the machine, look into the feeding chamber to make certain that it is empty;
2) Keep your face and body away from the feed intake opening;
3) Do not allow hands or any other part of the body or clothing inside the feeding chamber,
discharge chute, or near any moving part;
4) Keep proper balance and footing at all times. Do not overreach. Never stand at a higher level than
the base of the machine when feeding material into it;
5) Always stand clear of the discharge zone when operating this machine;
6) When feeding material into the machine be extremely careful that pieces of metal, rocks, bottles,
cans or other foreign objects are not included;
7) If the cutting mechanism strikes any foreign objects or if the machine should start making any
unusual noise or vibration, shut off the power source and allow the machine to stop. Disconnect the
spark plug wire from the spark plug (electric unit disconnect from supply) and take the following
steps:
inspect for damage;
check for and tighten any loose parts ;
Have any damaged parts replaced or repaired with parts having equivalent specifications.
8) Do not allow processed material to build up in the discharge zone; this may prevent proper
discharge and can result in kickback of material through the feed intake opening;
9) If the machine becomes clogged at the inlet opening or discharge chute shut-off the power source
and disconnect the spark plug wire or remove the ignition key before clearing debris in the inlet
opening or discharge chute. Keep the power source clear of debris and other accumulations to

4
prevent damage to the power source or possible fire. Remember that operating the starting
mechanism on engine powered machines will still cause the cutting means to move;
10) keep all guards and deflectors in place and in good working condition;
11) Do not tamper with the power source governor settings; the governor controls the safe maximum
operating speed and protects the power source and all moving parts from damage caused by over-
speed. Seek authorised service if a problem exists;
12) Do not transport this machine while the power source is running;
13) Shut off the power source and disconnect the spark plug lead (electric unit disconnect from
supply) whenever you leave the work area;
14) Do not tilt the machine while the power source is running.
Mandedintenance and storage
a) When the machine is stopped for servicing, inspection, or storage, or to change an accessory,
shut off the power source, disconnect the spark plug wire from the spark plug, make sure that all
moving parts have come to a complete stop and, where a key is fitted remove the key. Allow the
machine to cool before making any inspections, adjustments, etc.
b) Store the machine where fuel vapour will not reach an open flame or spark. For extended storage
periods, run the unit dry of fuel. Always allow the machine to cool before storing;
c) When servicing the cutting means be aware that, even though the power source will not start due
to the interlock feature of the guard, the cutting means can still be moved by a manual starting
mechanism.
Additional safety instructions for units with bagging attachments
a) shut-off the power unit before attaching or removing the bag.

SECTION 2: SET UP
Set Up Safety
This machine presents serious injury hazards to untrained users. Read through
this entire manual to become familiar with the controls and operations before
starting the machine!
Location
Site Considerations
The chipper/shredder must be placed on a firm, flat, grass or dirt surface to prevent the
machine from tipping. DO NOT place the machine on concrete, asphalt, or other hard
surfaces. The chips could bounce up from the hard surface and cause injury.
Working Clearances
Consider the length of the material to be processed through the machine and make sure
that there is enough height above the chipper/shredder to accommodate the material.
Make sure the unit is located close to the area where the chips are going to be used to
reduce carrying.
Stay clear of the discharge area. Make sure all bystanders, children, pets, or objects that
you do not want damaged or covered in chips, are clear of the discharge area.

inserting material into the chipper/shredder.
To operate the chipper/shredder:
1. Place the chipper/shredder on a flat, firm, dirt or grass surface and point the outlet in
a safe direction.
2. Check the oil and gas levels before starting the motor.
3. Place the bag over the chute and tie it securely in place.
4. Make sure the hopper and funnel are empty before starting the engine. If there is
material in the hopper or funnel, the pull start cord may stop suddenly causing the
chipper/shredder to fall over, or causing injury to your hand or arm.
5. Put on eye and ear protection, and gloves, start the chipper/shredder as instructed in the
manual, then set the throttle to fast.

9
6. Stand to the side of the hopper and make sure you have a stable stance and firm
footing.
To start the chipper/shredder:
Turn the fuel lever to the ON position (Pic.8)(8.1).
Set the choke lever to the ON position (Pic.9)(9.1).
Turn the engine ON/OFF switch to the ON position (Pic.10)(10.1).
Hold down the engine firmly with one hand on the frame. With the other hand grip the
recoil starter cord handle and pull slowly until resistance is felt indicating that the recoil
starter is engaged. When resistance is felt pull the cord sharply (Pic.11). Continue this
procedure until the engine starts.
When the engine has been successfully started and is running smoothly return the choke
lever to the OFF position (Pic.12)(12.1).
When the engine is running, the speed can be adjusted by moving the throttle control
lever (Pic.13)(13.1) to the high (indicated by a hare), medium or low position (indicated by
a tortoise).

10
To stop the chipper/shredder:
To stop the engine, turn the engine ON/OFF switch to the OFF position (Pic.14)(14.1).
When the engine has stopped and before storage, turn the fuel lever to the OFF position
as shown in Pic.15 (15.1).
To shred twigs, leaves, and brush:
1. Slowly pour the material into the hopper. DO NOT try to stuff too much material in at
one time or the machine will jam.
2. Use a 1" diameter branch to push the material into the hopper if necessary (see
Pic.16). DO NOT use your hands!
Pic.16 Shredding leaves
Note: Move the throttle to the idle position, or turn the chipper/shredder OFF, when not
actively shredding or chipping.
3. Turn OFF the machine, allow all moving parts to completely stop, and disconnect the
spark plug wire before moving the machine, emptying the bag, unclogging the inlets
or outlets, filling the gas tank, or performing maintenance and repairs.
Shredding Tips:
 Feed material into the chipper/shredder slowly. If the motor begins to bog down, you
are feeding too fast.
 Roots and dirty material will dull or damage the blades.

11
 Remove the chips often. Allowing the chips to pile up to the outlet will cause the outlet
to clog.
 Avoid shredding wet leaves or brush to reduce clogging. If you must shred wet material,
alternate wet and dry material.
To chip branches:
1. Stand to the side of the hopper and make sure you have a stable stance and firm
footing.
2. Remove twigs and smaller branches from the branch if they might catch on the edges
of the funnel and prevent the branch from going in.
3. Place branches into the funnel, thick end first, and allow the blades to draw the
branch into the funnel (see Pic.17).
Pic.17 Chipping branches
4. When finished chipping, turn OFF the machine, allow all moving parts to come to a
complete stop, and disconnect the spark plug wire before moving the machine,
emptying the bag, unclogging the inlets or outlets, filling the gas tank, or performing
maintenance and repairs.
Chipping Tips:
 DO NOT feed material in excess of the diameter indicated on the funnel cover into the
funnel. Large branches will cause the motor to stall.
 Chipping wood when it is green is easier on the machine. The blades will stay sharper
longer.
 The chipper/shredder will work best if the blades are sharp. Rotate, sharpen, or replace
the blades as soon as chipper/shredder performance begins to deteriorate.

12
Turn OFF the machine, allow all moving parts to come to a complete stop, and
disconnect the spark plug wire before moving the machine, emptying the bag,
unclogging the inlets or outlets, filling the gas tank, or performing maintenance
and repairs.
SECTION 4: MAINTENANCE
Visual Inspection
Before and after using the chipper/shredder, closely inspect the machine for loose parts
and damage.
 Check the hopper, hopper guard, and funnel for cracks, holes, and loose bolts.
 Check the box frame for cracks or damage.
 Check the entire machine for loose bolts or screws.
 Check the blades and hammers for cracks and dings.
 Check the engine oil level.
Cleaning
Clean the machine after each use. Allow the motor to cool and remove the spark plug wire.
Brush off or vacuum wood chips and wipe off the remaining dust from the exterior of the
machine with a dry cloth. DO NOT rinse off the chipper/ shredder with water. Remove any
chips or debris from the hopper and the discharge chute.
It is much harder to clean the machine if you allow it to sit for a while after use. You may
need to use an engine cleaner to remove the built up resins from the motor. Engine
cleaners are available at most auto parts stores.
Maintenance of engine
Spark Plug
After every 50 hours of running the spark plug should be removed. Check the color of the
deposits on the end of the spark plug it should be a “Tan” color. Remove all deposits using
a stiff brush a brass wire brush is ideal. Check the spark plug gap (Pic.18)(18.1) and adjust
if required. The correct gap should be 0.7 to 0.8mm.

13
Engine oil replacement
Place the machine on a level surface and warm up the engine for several minutes. Then
stop the engine.
Remove the oil filler cap (Pic.5)(5.1).
Place an oil pan under the engine. Remove the oil drain plug (Pic.5)(5.2) so that the oil
can be completely drained. You will need to use a tube or other similar device to prevent
the oil leaking onto the frame of the chipper/shredder.
Check the oil drain plug, gasket, oil filler cap and O-ring and if damaged replace.
Reinstall the oil drain plug.
Add engine oil up to the upper level of the dipstick (Pic.6)(6.1).
Air Filter
After every 100 hours of running or every month, the air filter (Pic.19)(19.1) should be
removed, examined for deterioration and cleaned. Clean the air filter thoroughly using
environmentally friendly water based degreasing agent. Allow to dry fully then replace the
air filter. Warning! Never run the engine without the air filter fitted.
Fuel tank filter
After every 150 hours of running or every three months the fuel tank filter (Pic.20)(20.1)
should be removed and cleaned. Remove the fuel tank filler cap and the filter, clean the
filter thoroughly using environmentally friendly water based degreasing agent and re-fit.
Replacing Blades
Sharpen or replace the blades as soon as the chipping performance begins to deteriorate,
or if you notice dings, chips, or cracks.
To perform this procedure:
1. TURN OFF THE MACHINE, ALLOW ALL MOVING PARTS TO COME TO A
COMPLETE STOP, AND DISCONNECT THE SPARK PLUG WIRE!
2. Remove the side cover plate to expose the blades. (See Pic.21)
3. Remove one blade, rotate the impeller, and remove the second blade.
4. Have the original blades professionally sharpened, or order a replacement set, then
re-install the blades.
5. Replace the side cover plate and re-attach the spark plug wire.

14
Pic.21 Chipper blade
Replacing V-Belt
Replace or tighten the V-belt if you notice the motor running and the chipper blades
are not spinning.
To perform this procedure:
1. TURN OFF THE MACHINE, ALLOW ALL MOVING PARTS TO COME TO A
COMPLETE STOP, AND DISCONNECT THE SPARK PLUG WIRE!
2. Remove the V-belt cover as shown in Pic.22.
3. Roll the belt off of the pulleys and install the new belt.
4. Replace the V-belt cover and re-attach the spark plug wire.
Storage
Follow these guidelines when storing your chipper/shredder.
 Remove the spark plug wire to prevent unauthorized starting.
 Empty the bag before storing to keep the mulch from rotting in the bag.
 Place the chipper/shredder in a dry, level area. If the chipper/shredder is tipped it may
leak oil and gas.
 DO NOT store the chipper/shredder near an ignition source, such as a wood stove, gas
or electric heater, or an appliance or heater with a pilot light.
 Store the chipper/shredder in a well ventilated area. DO NOT store the
chipper/shredder in an area that will allow toxic gas fumes into areas inhabited by
humans or animals.

15
 Close the discharge chute deflector and place the covers over the hopper and the
funnel to prevent objects or critters from getting into the machine.
 If the engine is not to be used or is to be stored for more than one month the following
storage procedure should be carried out. Drain all the fuel from the fuel tank and the
carburetor ensure that all the fuel has been removed. Remove the spark plug and
pour approximately one tablespoon full of clean engine oil into the spark plug hole.
With the ignition turned OFF gently pull on the recoil starter cord several times. Re-fit
the spark plug continue to pull the recoil starter cord until the piston is on the
