GB Never operate the machine when it is in need
of repair or is in poor mechanical condition.
Replace damaged, missing, or failed parts
before using it. Check for fuel leaks. Keep the
machine in safe working condition.
Do not use the machine if the engine’s switch
does not turn it on or off. Any gasoline
powered machine that can’t be controlled with
the engine switch is dangerous and must be
replaced.
Regularly check to see that keys and adjusting
wrenches are removed from the machine area
before starting it. A wrench or a key that is
left attached to a rotating part of the machine
may result in personal injury.
Avoid accidental starting. Be sure the engine’s
switch is off before transporting the machine
or performing any maintenance or service
on the unit. Transporting or performing
maintenance or service on a machine with its
switch on invites accidents.
If the machine should start to vibrate
abnormally, stop the engine (motor) and
check immediately for the cause. Vibration is
generally a warning sign of trouble.
Engine Safety
This machine is equipped with an internal
combustion engine. Do not use on or near any
unimproved, forest covered, or brush covered
land unless the exhaust system is equipped
with a spark arrester meeting applicable local,
state, or federal laws.
In the state of California, a spark arrester is
required by law. Other states have similar laws.
A spark arrester, if used, must be maintained
in effective working order by the operator.
Never start or run the engine inside a closed
area. The exhaust fumes are dangerous,
containing carbon monoxide, an odorless and
deadly gas. Operate this unit only in a well-
ventilated outdoor area.
Do not tamper with the engine to run it at
excessive speeds. The maximum engine speed
is preset by the manufacturer and is within
safety limits. See engine manual.
Keep a Class B fire extinguisher on hand
when operating this chipper in dry areas as a
precautionary measure.
Fuel Safety
Fuel is highly flammable, and its vapors can
explode if ignited. Take precautions when using
to reduce the chance of serious personal injury.
When refilling or draining the fuel tank, use
an approved fuel storage container while in
a clean, well-ventilated outdoor area. Do not
smoke, or allow sparks, open flames, or other
sources of ignition near the area while adding
fuel or operating the unit. Never fill the fuel
tank indoors.
Keep grounded conductive objects, such as
tools, away from exposed, live electrical parts
and connections to avoid sparking or arcing.
These events could ignite fumes or vapors.
Always stop the engine and allow it to cool
before filling the fuel tank. Never remove
the cap of the fuel tank or add fuel while the
engine is running or when the engine is hot.
Do not operate the machine with known leaks
in the fuel system.
Loosen the fuel tank cap slowly to relieve any
pressure in the tank.
Never overfill the fuel tank. Fill the tank to no
more than 1cm below the bottom of the filler
neck to provide space for expansion as the
heat of the engine can cause fuel to expand.
Replace all fuel tank and container caps
securely and wipe up spilled fuel. Never operate
the unit without the fuel cap securely in place.
Avoid creating a source of ignition for spilled
fuel. If fuel is spilled, do not attempt to start
the engine but move the machine away
from the area of spillage and avoid creating
any source of ignition until fuel vapors have
dissipated.
When fuel is spilled on yourself or your
clothes, wash your skin and change clothes
immediately.
Store fuel in containers specifically designed
and approved for this purpose.
Store fuel in a cool, well-ventilated area, safely
away from sparks, open flames, or other
sources of ignition.
Never store fuel or a machine with fuel in the
tank inside a building where fumes may reach
a spark, open flame, or any other source of
ignition, such as a water heater, furnace, or
clothes dryer. Allow the engine to cool before
storing in any enclosure.

Specific Safety Rules
Identify hazards and take preventive steps to
avoid accidents and minimize risk. Possible
hazards include, but are not limited to,
moving parts, thrown objects, weight of the
machine and components, and the operating
environment.
Prior to Starting
Thoroughly inspect the area in which you are
working, keeping it clean and free of debris
to prevent tripping. Operate on a flat level
ground.
Before starting your chipper: make sure the
feed hopper and cutting housing are empty
and free of all debris, check the oil level, make
sure all nuts and bolts are tight, and check the
air pressure in the tires.
Operation Safety
Never place any part of your body where
it would be in danger if movement should
occur during assembly, installation, operation,
maintenance, repair, or moving.
Keep all bystanders and pets at least 75 feet
away. If you are approached, stop the unit
immediately.
Never place your hands, feet, or any part of
your body in the chipper hopper, discharge
opening, or near or under any moving part
while the machine is running. Keep the area of
discharge clear of people, animals, buildings,
glass, or anything else that will obstruct clear
discharge, causing injury or damage. Wind can
also change discharge direction, so be aware.
If it becomes necessary to push materials to
the chipper hopper, use a small-diameter stick,
not your hands.
Keep your face and body back from the
chipper hopper and discharge chute to
avoid injury from accidental bounce back of
material.
Never reach with your hands inside the feed
hopper past the rubber flap while operating
the machine.
Keep combustible substances away from the
engine when it is hot.
Do not tilt the machine while the engine is
running.
Never operate this machine without the feed
hopper or discharge chute properly attached.
Operating Zone
Feeding Materials
Feed only clean materials into the machine.
Foreign matter such as soil, sand, grit, stones,
pieces of metal, etc. will damage the sharp
edge of the cutting knives. Root balls and
dead wood will also dull the blades quickly.
Avoid feeding pine needles, flax and cabbage
tree leaves into the machine; these stringy
materials can wrap around the rotor shaft and
work their way into the bearing.
Avoid feeding short, stubby pieces of wood
into the machine; they tend to bounce and
spin in the feed hopper. Feed these short
pieces together with longer pieces. After
becoming familiar with the machine, prune to
suit its capabilities.
This machine is self-feeding, do not force
branches into the blades. Allow the machine
to automatically feed through. Allow time for
the machine to reach the highest spinning
revolutions before feeding the next load of
branches.
Unclogging
Never allow processed material to build up in
the discharge area. This can prevent proper
discharge and result in kickback from the
chipper hopper.
36060UK00M100_BS.indd 5 2019/8/28 14:44:13

WOOD CHIPPER
6
GB Never attempt to unclog either the feed
hopper or discharge chute while the engine is
running. Immediately shut off the engine, allow
the cutting disk to come to a complete stop,
and then remove the clogged material. Inspect
for damage and check for any loose parts for
repair or replacement.
Whenever you leave the operating position
or if you have to remove processed material,
leaves, or debris from the machine, always
shut down the engine, and ensure the engine
is switched to “off” to prevent accidental
starting, and wait for all moving parts to come
to a complete stop.
Before opening the cutting disk housing,
always make sure the engine is switched off,
the cutting disk is at a complete standstill, and
the belt drive is disengaged.
Moving
Move the machine at least 10 feet away from
the refueling point before starting engine.
This chipper is for movement by hand only.
Never attempt to tow the machine on public
highways, roads, or thoroughfares.
Always stop the engine before moving the
machine, and watch out for sharp objects that
could pierce the tires.
Machine Use And Care
Position the machine in such a way that it
can not move during maintenance, cleaning,
adjustment, assembly of accessories or spare
parts, as well as under storage.
Do not force the machine. Use the correct
machine for your application. The correct
machine will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which it is designed.
Do not change the engine governor settings
or over-speed the engine. The governor
controls the maximum safe operating speed
of the engine.
Do not run the engine at a high speed when
you are not working.
Do not put hands or feet near rotating parts.
This machine has two rotating cutting knives
capable of amputating hands and feet and
throwing objects. Keep hands and feet out of
openings while machine is running. Failure to
observe these safety instructions could result
in serious injury or death.
Avoid contact with hot fuel, oil, exhaust fumes
and hot surfaces. Do not touch the engine or
muffler. These parts get extremely hot from
operation. They remain hot for a short time
after you turn off the unit. Allow the engine
to cool before doing maintenance or making
adjustments.
If the machine should start to make an unusual
noise or vibration, immediately shut off
the engine, disconnect the spark plug wire,
and check for the cause. Unusual noise or
vibration is generally a warning of trouble.
Use only attachments and accessories
approved by the manufacturer. Failure to do
so can result in personal injury.
Keep the engine and muffler free of grass,
leaves, excessive grease or carbon build up to
reduce the chance of a fire hazard.
Never douse or squirt the unit with water or
any other liquid. Keep handles dry, clean and
free from debris. Clean after each use.
Observe proper disposal laws and regulations
for gas, oil, etc. to protect the environment.
When storing machine out of the reach
of children and do not allow persons
unfamiliar with the machine or these
instructions to operate it. This machine can be
dangerous when used by an untrained user.
Maintaining Your Machine
Some parts of this machine are made of
plastic or rubber and should be kept away
from chemicals.
Never cover the machine while the muffler is
still hot.
Do not alter or adjust any part of the
chipper or its engine that is sealed by the
manufacturer or distributor. Only a qualified
service technician may adjust parts that
increase or decrease governed engine speed.
To maintain your machine, check for any
misalignment or binding of any moving parts.
Parts that are broken or worn down that may
affect the machine’s operation. If damage
or worn parts are identify, they should be
repaired before use. Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained equipment.

Operating
After starting the engine and letting it idle for
one minute, slowly move the Throttle Control
Lever to the fast setting until the engine has
accelerated to the highest RPM.
This chipper can process tree limbs, branches,
and organic matter (such as corn stalks). Tree
branches must be inserted with the large, cut
end first into the Chipper Cone Opening. As the
unit chips the load, there will be some occasional
debris kickback. Always stand away from the
unit and allow the self-feeding action pull the
load to the cutting disc.
The chipper shredder is designed to break down
and shred light brush, leaves, and soft but bulky
organic waste. Load this type of material (no
larger than 1cm in diameter) into the top of the
Feed Hopper. The material is then pulled into the
cutting chamber by air flow.
Starting Engine
1. Move the engine
switch to the ON
position.
2. Open the fuel shut-
off valve.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT OVERFILL!
This equipment and/or its engine
may include evaporative emissions
control system components,
required to meet EPA and/or CARB
regulations, that will only function
properly when the fuel tank has been
filled to the recommended level.
Overfilling may cause permanent
damage to evaporative emissions
control system components. Filling
to the recommended level ensures
a vapor gap required to allow for
fuel expansion. Pay close attention
while filling the fuel tank to ensure
that the recommended fuel level
inside the tank is not exceeded. Use
a portable gasoline container with an
appropriately sized dispensing spout
when filling the tank. Do not use a
funnel or other device that obstructs
the view of the tank filling process.
Rapid retraction of the starter cord
(kickback) will pull your handand arm
toward the engine faster than you
can let go. Broken bones, fractures,
bruises, or sprains could result.
3. Move the choke
lever to the CLOSED
position.

WOOD CHIPPER 13
GB
Chipper Cone
Feed Hopper
Feed tree limbs or branches with the cut end
first into the hopper opening, leaving the
brushy head to be chipped last. This helps
guide the limb down the feed hopper opening
and reduces the chance of cut pieces being
toss back up the hopper opening. Some
branches may be required to be pre-cut to
provide the a more efficient self-feeding
action.
It is recommended to process freshly cut
materials, as older branches get dried out
and brittle. Older, dryer branches will dull the
cutting knifes quicker than freshly cut ones.
While operating the machine, keep a wooden
stick handy, approximately 1 inch in diameter
by 2 feet long. This stick will be useful to push
in short, brushy and very leafy materials and
keep the feed hopper clear.
Do not force material into the machine. If it
does not chip well, the chipper knives may
need sharpening or to be replaced.
Do not overload the machine by filling the
hopper opening with too much material
at one time. As a load passes through the
cutting disc and is discharged, the engine
speed may decrease. Allow enough time for
the engine to accelerate to the highest RPM
before another load is added. In the event of
overload condition, stop feeding material into
the hopper.
Make sure the machine is level
and stable to avoid unnecessary
vibrations.
Do not open the housing cover
unless the engine and cutting disk
are completely stopped and the belt
drive is disengaged.
To shut down the machine, move
the throttle control lever to idle
speed, turn the engine switch to the
OFF position, and it will gradually
come to a standstill.
Do not operate on concrete or other
hard surface.
The chipper can clog up with soft, wet, or
fibrous materials. However, if you feed soft
materials intermittently with branches, there
should be no problem, as the chipper tends
to clean out any residue left in the machine.
If any stringy material wraps around the rotor
shaft, remove it before it works its way into
the bearing.
If the chipper stalls from overloading or
clogging, turn off the engine’s power switch
and wait until the cutting disk is completely
stopped. Allow the engine to completely cool
and switch the engine to off. Open the housing
cover to clear and remove all the materials
from the housing. Lock the housing cover,
switch the engine to the on position, and start
the machine again to resume operation.
As the discharge material plies up, move the
chipper away from the pile. This will keep the
material from backing up the discharge chute.
Do not position the deflector vertically, as this
will reduce the airflow, impeding the discharge
and causing blockage.
Idle Speed
Set the throttle control lever to the SLOW
position to reduce stress on the engine when
chipping is not being performed. Lowering the

Maintaining your chipper will ensure long life
to the machine and its components.
Preventive Maintenance
1. Turn off the engine. The engine must be
cool.
2. Keep the engine’s throttle lever in its SLOW
position and remove the spark plug wire
from the spark plug and secure.
3. Inspect the general condition of the chipper.
Check for loose screws, misalignment or
binding of moving parts, cracked or broken
parts, and any other condition that may
affect its safe operation.
4. Remove all debris from the chipper with a
soft brush, vacuum, or compressed air. Then
use a premium quality lightweight machine
oil to lubricate all moving parts.
5. Replace the spark plug wire.
Regular Maintenance Checklist
The service intervals shown are the maximum
under normal operating conditions. Increase
frequencies under extremely dirty or dusty
conditions.
Wait until the machine completely stops.
Allow the engine to completely cool. Remove
the engine’s spark plug. Then clean out the
interior of the machine and its discharge
chute.
Your chipper is equipped with two large
wheels for easy movement by hand. To move
the unit, grip the handles and tilt the chipper
slightly after making sure the oil tank cover is
tightened.
TRANSPORTING
MAINTENANCE
Sudden stopping at a high
speed under a heavy load is not
recommended. Engine damage may
result.
Do not disengage the belt drive
with the machine running. This will
cause friction and vibration on the
belt drive.
Never use a pressure washer to
clean your chipper. Water can
penetrate tight areas of the unit and
cause damage to spindles, pulleys,
bearings, or the engine .
Shut down the engine, wait for all
moving parts to come to a complete
stop, remove the spark plug wire,
and then wait five minutes before
performing maintenance on the
chipper.
Do not move the choke control to
CLOSE to stop the engine. Backfire

Maintaining your chipper will ensure long life
to the machine and its components.
Preventive Maintenance
1. Turn off the engine. The engine must be
cool.
2. Keep the engine’s throttle lever in its SLOW
position and remove the spark plug wire
from the spark plug and secure.
3. Inspect the general condition of the chipper.
Check for loose screws, misalignment or
binding of moving parts, cracked or broken
parts, and any other condition that may
affect its safe operation.
4. Remove all debris from the chipper with a
soft brush, vacuum, or compressed air. Then
use a premium quality lightweight machine
oil to lubricate all moving parts.
5. Replace the spark plug wire.
Regular Maintenance Checklist
The service intervals shown are the maximum
under normal operating conditions. Increase
frequencies under extremely dirty or dusty
conditions.
Wait until the machine completely stops.
Allow the engine to completely cool. Remove
the engine’s spark plug. Then clean out the
interior of the machine and its discharge
chute.
Your chipper is equipped with two large
wheels for easy movement by hand. To move
the unit, grip the handles and tilt the chipper
slightly after making sure the oil tank cover is
tightened.
TRANSPORTING
MAINTENANCE
Sudden stopping at a high
speed under a heavy load is not
recommended. Engine damage may
result.
Do not disengage the belt drive
with the machine running. This will
cause friction and vibration on the
belt drive.
Never use a pressure washer to
clean your chipper. Water can
penetrate tight areas of the unit and
cause damage to spindles, pulleys,
bearings, or the engine .
Shut down the engine, wait for all
moving parts to come to a complete
stop, remove the spark plug wire,
and then wait five minutes before
performing maintenance on the
chipper.
Do not move the choke control to
CLOSE to stop the engine. Backfire
or engine damage may occur.

Knife Resharpening
After removal, the knives should be sharpened
on a surface grinder. Be careful and wear gloves
to protect your hands. It is extremely important
to consistently maintain the 38-degree cutting
angle for proper performance.
Make sure there is plenty of coolant used
during the grinding process, since excessive
heat damages the knives and weakens the
metal. If you are unable to resharpen the knives
your self, take them to a professional machine
shop for proper resharpening. Normally only as
light touch-up is needed.
Engine Oil / Fuel
Refer to the engine manual packed separately
with your unit for information on how to check
or add oil/fuel and for recommendations.
Engine Maintenance
Refer to the engine manual packed separately
with your unit for detailed information and a
maintenance schedule.
8. If knife show signs of wear, replace it. Using
the 8mm hex wrench, reach into the main
housing and remove the two socket head
cap screws and the chipper knife.

If your chipper will not be used for more than
30 days, follow the steps below to prepare
your unit for storage :
1. Drain the fuel tank completely. Stale fuel has
high gum con tent and can clog the carbure
tor and restrict fuel flow.
2. Start the engine and allow it to run until it
stops. This ensures no fuel is left in the carb
uretor and helps prevent deposits from for
ming inside, which can damage the engine.
3. Drain the oil from the engine while it is still
warm. Refill with fresh oil of the grade reco
mmended in the engine manual.
4. Allow the engine to cool. Remove the spark
plug and put 60 ml of SAE-30 high-quality
engine oil into the cylinder. Pull the starter
rope slowly to distribute the oil. Replace the
spark plug.
5. Use clean cloths to clean off the outside of
the chipper and to keep the air vents free
from obstructions.
6. Store your chipper in an upright position in
a clean, dry building with good ventilation.
STORAGE
Remove the spark plug and drain
all oil from the cylinder before
attempting to start the unit after
storage.
Be careful and wear gloves when
working near the knives.
If the cutting disk surface is not
cleaned properly and the knives are
not mounted flush on the cutting
disk, the knives could crack when
the hardware is tightened.
Do not use strong detergents or
petroleum based cleaners when
cleaning plastic parts. Chemicals
can damage plastics.
Do not store your chipper with fuel
in a non-ventilated area where fuel
fumes could reach flames, sparks,
pilot lights or any ignition sources.
Use only approved fuel containers.
