14. Do not allow processed material to build-up in the Discharge Chute. This may
prevent proper discharge and can result in kickback of material through the
Hopper (1). (See Figure G.)
15. Should the Chipper/Shredder jam during use, immediately turn the unit’s
Power Switch (42) to its “OFF” position and remove the Safety Key. Unplug the
unit from its electrical outlet. Wait until the machine completely stops. Clear the
jam in the Blade (56) of the machine. Then, resume operation. (See Figure G.)
16. NOTE: The Chipper/Shredder features an Overload Protector (45). If the Motor
shuts off or fails to start due to overloading (cutting material too fast, using a dull
Blade, low voltage, using the machine beyond its capacity, etc.), turn the Power
Switch (42) to its “OFF” position. Let the Motor cool three to five minutes, and
push the Overload Protector button which will reset the overload device. The
Motor can then be turned on again in the usual manner. (See Figure G.)
17. When finished, turn the machine’s Power Switch (42) to its “OFF” position.
Unplug the unit from its electrical outlet and wait until the machine completely
stops. Then, open the upper cover of the Shredder Housing (11) and clean out
the interior of the machine and its Discharge Chute. (See Figure G.)
18. Make sure to store the Chipper/Shredder in a clean, dry, safe location out of
reach of children and other unauthorized people.
1. WARNING! Always make sure the machine’s Power Switch (42) is in its
“OFF” position and the unit is unplugged from its electrical outlet prior to
performing any service, maintenance, or cleaning of the Chipper/Shredder.
2. Before each use, inspect the general condition of the Chipper/Shredder. Check
for loose screws, misalignment or binding of moving parts, cracked or broken
parts, and any other condition that may affect the safe operation of the machine.
11. Without putting your hands into the Hopper (1), slowly drop the material into
the Hopper (one branch at a time). The machine will pull the material in
automatically. (See Figure G.)
12. WARNING! Never use your hands to feed material into the Hopper
(1). If needed, use a stick to push the branches, leaves, etc. into the
Hopper. (See Figure G.)
13. Always stand clear and to the side of the Discharge Chute located at the
bottom of the Chipper/Shredder. (See Figure G.)
