The machine is equipped with hammers (Figure 7) on the rotor shaft or with y-blades (Figure 8) as an option. 
Hammers are appropriate for more hard work, for material with diameter till 5 cm. Y-blades are used for material 
with diameter max. 3 cm. While rotating working tools cut the material and lift it under the top of the frame. 
Falling material is again cut several times by rotating hammers (or Y-blades).
