Safety Rules & Information
Operating Safety
Congratulations on purchasing a superior-quality piece
of lawn and garden equipment. Our products are
designed and manufactured to meet or exceed all industry
standards for safety.
Power equipment is only as safe as the operator. If it is
misused, or not properly maintained, it can be dangerous!
Remember, you are responsible for your safety and that of
those around you.
Use common sense, and think through what you are
doing. If you are not sure that the task you are about to
perform can be safely done with the equipment you have
chosen, ask a professional: contact your local authorized
dealer.
Read the Manual
The operator’s manual contains important safety information you need to be
aware of BEFORE you operate your unit as well as DURING operation.
Safe operating techniques, an explanation of the product’s features and
controls, and maintenance information is included to help you get the
most out of your equipment investment.
Be sure to completely read the Safety Rules and Information found
on the following pages. Also completely read the Operation section.
Children
Tragic accidents can occur with children. Do not allow
them anywhere near the area of operation. Children
are often attracted to the unit and usage activity. Never
assume that children will remain where you last saw
them. If there is a risk that children may enter the area
where you are operating, have another responsible adult
watch them.
Page 800-345-6007
Safety Rules and Information
Moving Parts
This equipment has many moving parts that can injure you or
someone else. However, if you follow all the rules in this book,
the unit is safe to operate.
The chipper/shredder has spinning blades that can amputate
hands and feet. Do not allow anyone near the equipment
while it is running! Do not place hands or feet in the hopper or
chipper cone, or discharge chute.
Thrown Objects
This unit discharges debris at high speeds. Always wear protective goggles
and do not operate without the debris bag in place. Also, do not allow anyone
in the area while the unit is running! If someone does enter the area, shut the
unit off immediately until they leave. Organize the work area prior to starting
work.
Fuel and Maintenance
Gasoline is extremely flammable. Its vapors are also extremely flammable
and can travel to distant ignition sources. Gasoline must only be used as a
fuel, not as a solvent or cleaner. It should never be stored any place where
its vapors can build up or travel to an ignition source like a pilot light. Fuel
belongs in an approved, plastic, sealed gas can, or in the fuel tank with the
cap securely closed. Spilled fuel needs to be cleaned up immediately.
Proper maintenance is critical to the safety and performance of your unit.
Be sure to perform the maintenance procedures listed in this manual,
especially periodically testing the safety system.
800-345-6007

discharging material against a wall or obstruction.
Material may ricochet back toward the operator.
6. Operate the machine only in daylight or good artificial
light.
7. Do not operate the unit while under the influence of
alcohol or drugs.
8. Always wear eye and hearing protection when
operating this unit.
9. Keep in mind the operator is responsible for accidents
occurring to other people or property.
10.It is a violation of California Public Resource Code
Section 4442 to use or operate the engine on or near
any forest-covered, brush-covered, or grass-covered
land unless the exhaust system is equipped with a
spark arrester meeting any applicable local or state
laws. Other states or federal areas may have similar
laws.
11.Always operate the chipper/shredder outdoors, on a
firm, level, earthen or grassy surface where the unit
will be stable and stay in position. Never attempt to
operate the unit on a slope, or on a wet or slippery
surface where you could slip and fall toward the
chipper cone or hopper openings.
12.Never operate the chipper/shredder on asphalt,
concrete, or other hard surfaces as material being
ejected out of the discharge chute could ricochet,
causing injury to you or bystanders.
13.Always obey the size limitations for tree limbs and
branches stated in the Waste Materials Guide portion
of this manual.
Page 14.Never leave the machine running unattended. Always
turn off the engine, wait for the rotor to come to a
complete stop, and disconnect the spark plug before
leaving the area. Always move the unit to a safe
storage area when not in use.
15.Always maintain secure footing and solid balance
while starting or operating the chipper/shredder.
Never lean directly over the machine.
16.Always stand to the side of the chipper cone when
feeding tree limbs and branches into the unit, as tree
limbs, branches, and harder woods may kick back
while being chipped.
17.Always keep hands out of the chipper cone and
shredder hopper when feeding materials. Never wrap
fingers tightly around branches as you are feeding
them into the unit, as a sudden inward surge could
pull your hands and arms into the unit.
18.Never allow material to build up in the discharge
area or shredding chamber, as this may cause new
material being fed into the machine to kickback with
sufficient force to injure you or other bystanders.
19.Never allow material to build up around the engine
during chipper/shredder operation. This could result in
a fire, or overheating of the engine.
20.Never attempt to reposition or move the chipper/
shredder unit while it is running. Doing so could cause
the machine to tip over, and reaching to steady the
unit could result in accidental insertion of your hands
into the chipper cone or shredder hopper areas.
21.Never continue to operate the machine if it starts
making unusual noise or vibration. Shut the engine
off immediately, allow the rotor to stop, disconnect the
spark plug wire and secure the wire away from the
spark plug. Inspect the unit for any signs of damage
or foreign material in the chipping or shredding areas.
Remove any solid material that may be preventing the
unit from operating properly.
22.Never attempt to clear clogs from the chipper cone,
shredder hopper or discharge chute while the unit is
running. Always shut the engine off, allow the rotor
to come to a complete stop, and remove the spark
plug wire from the spark plug before removing excess
materials.
23.Never attempt to perform any maintenance, repairs,
or attachment of accessories while the unit is running.
Always shut the unit off, allow the rotor to come to a
complete stop, and remove the spark plug wire from
the spark plug before beginning these activities.
24.Always make sure that the shredding chamber,
shredder hopper, and chipper cone are empty before
starting the unit after it has been idle. Attempting to
start the unit with material in these areas could cause
the engine starting cord to stop suddenly, injuring
your hand and fingers, or toppling the unit over.
Vibration is generally a warning sign of trouble.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS and parts explosions
Chipper/Shredder Models
Operation
General Operating Safety
Be sure to read all information in the Safety and
Operation sections before attempting to operate this unit.
Become familiar with all of the controls and how to stop
the unit.
Upon start-up and shut-down, you may hear the
metal-to-metal sound of the triangular hammers and Jhammers positioning themselves on the rotor. This is
normal. If this sound continues after the machine has
reached full speed, contact your dealer for an inspection
of the unit. Overloading the equipment will shorten its
life, and can cause mechanical failures.
Chipper Operation
The chipper is designed to handle tree limbs and
branches up to approximately 3” (7,6 cm) in diameter.
The chipping knives also permit the processing of course
organic matter like corn stalks. Tree branches must be
inserted large-end first into the chipper cone. Since
occasional kick-backs may occur, always stand off to the
side of the unit. Allow the self-feeding action of the unit
to draw the sticks in.
Shredder Operation
The shredder is designed to shred light brush, leaves,
and other soft but bulky organic waste. As material is
loaded into the shredder hopper it is pulled into the path
of the triangular and J-hammers by air flow.
Vacuum Attachment (Optional)
WARNING
To avoid serious personal injury from rotating
cutting blades, keep hands out of inlet while
machine is running.
In addition to the chipper cone and hopper, loose debris
may be processed by the Vacuum hose adapter kit.
Leaves may be raked directly into the leaf tray where
vacuum action will draw them into the shredder. For
hard-to-reach areas, the nozzle and hose assembly may
be used. The strength of the Vacuum may be changed
using the rotating sleeve on the nozzle. (See Vacuum Kit
parts explosion on page 28.)
Operating Location
Select an area with firm, level ground, covered by dirt or
grass. Do not operate on wet or slick surfaces, or near
bystanders. Locate and organize the materials to be
processed so that you don’t have to walk in front of the
inlet or discharge openings, and so you have adequate
room to work safely.
800-345-6007
DANGER
The exhaust from this product contains carbon
monoxide gas. Carbon monoxide is a colorless,
orderless, and tasteless gas that can cause
dizziness, nausea, unconsciousness, or even
brain damage and death if inhaled for prolonged
periods.
Operate the unit outdoors in a well ventilated
location only. Keep children, pets, and bystanders
away.
Failure to follow these instructions may result in
serious injury or death.
Adding Fuel
Do not use gasoline containing METHANOL,
gasohol containing more than 10%
ETHANOL, gasoline additives, or white gas
because engine/fuel system damage could
result.
WARNING
Gasoline is highly flammable and must be handled
with care. Never fill the tank when the engine is
still hot from recent operation. Do not allow open
flame, smoking or matches in the area. Avoid
over-filling and wipe up any spills.
To add fuel:
1. Remove the fuel cap (see Figure 1).
2. Fill the tank. Do not overfill. Leave room in the tank
for fuel expansion. Refer to your engine manual for
specific fuel recommendations.
3. Install and hand tighten the fuel cap.
Starting the Engine
1. Set the throttle to FULL.
2. Close the choke.
NOTE: A warm engine may not require choking.
3. Place one foot on the front support leg to hold the
unit firmly in place.
4. Pull the starting rope out to begin turning the engine
over. Pull slowly at first and increase speed with
each successive pull.
5. After the engine starts, open the choke and move the
engine throttle control to SLOW. Warm up the engine
Page 13
Operation
by running it for at least a minute.
6. Set throttle to FULL and begin chipping/shredding.
Stopping the Engine
NOTE: In the event of an emergency the engine can be
stopped by setting the throttle control to STOP.
1. Slide the throttle control fully left to the
STOP position.
NOTE: Upon start-up and shut-down, you may hear the
metal-to-metal sound of the triangular hammers and Jhammers positioning themselves on the rotor. This is
normal.
2. After the engine has stopped moving, remove the
spark plug wire and remove any debris from the unit
and engine.
Processing Materials
Most materials to be processed can be handled more
efficiently by following these tips.
Chipping Tips:
Figure 2. Chipping.
• Prune branches down close to the main branch to
make feeding them into the chipper cone easier.
• Large, hard, dried tree branches that resist chipping
can be processed by rotating them as you alternately
insert and retract them.
• If the material to be chipped is extremely hard, kicks
back forcefully when being fed into the chipper cone,
or cannot be easily controlled, remove the material
immediately and set it aside.
• If additional force is required to insert materials
into the chipper, the blades probably need to be
sharpened. Consult the Troubleshooting and Repair
section of this manual, or see your authorized dealer.
• Maintain control of the materials you are feeding to
prevent them from whipping around.
• Do not insert short pieces of material into the chipper
cone by hand. Use a larger piece of material to force
them into the chipper cone.
Shedding Tips
• Don’t overload the shredder by dumping large
volumes of material into the hopper opening.
• Alternate loads of wet and dry material to prevent the
discharge from becoming plugged.
• Never use any object to force material into the
shredding chamber. It could get caught in the
shredding hammers and damage the unit.

vegetables.
Branches and twigs up to
1/2” diameter and 18” long.
Alternately chip or shred moist green
waste with dry waste to avoid plugging

Maximum diameter of
approximately 3” (7,6 cm).
Chipping
Process at a feeding rate that allows the
rotor to keep up and maintain a high rate
of speed.
Bulky tree limbs should be pruned close
to the main stem. Always use a shorter
piece of wood to push end pieces into
the chipper cone. Never place hands in
the chipper cone.
Never chip very hard or dry materials
such as kiln dried dimensional lumber
(2x4’s etc.) or other building materials.
Never use the chipper to process
pressure-treated wood products.

Storage
Before you store your unit for the off-season, read the
Maintenance and Storage instructions in the Safety
Rules section, then perform the following steps:
• Perform engine maintenance and storage measures
listed in the engine owner’s manual. This includes
draining the fuel system, or adding stabilizer to
the fuel (do not store a fueled unit in an enclosed
structure - see warning).
Before starting the unit after it has been stored:
• Check all fluid levels. Check all maintenance items.
• Perform all recommended checks and procedures
found in the engine owner’s manual.
• Allow the engine to warm up for several minutes
before use.
