CLEANING THE REDUCTION CHAMBER 

WARNING: 

The impeller's shredder blade and 

chipper blades are sharp. Wear leather work 
gloves to protect your hands when cleaning out 
the reduction chamber. 

If the reduction chamber becomes clogged with debris, 
the shredder screen can be pivoted upward so that you 
can clean the surrounding area. To do so, proceed as 
follows: 

1.1.

Stop the engine and wait until all moving parts 
have come to a complete stop. 

1.2.

Disconnect the spark plug wire and keep it away 
from the spark plug. 

WARNING: 

The muffler and surrounding area 

will be hot if the engine has been running. Use 
caution and protect your hands if working near 
the muffler. 

1.3.

Remove the two wing knobs on either side of the 
discharge chute and pivot the discharge chute 
upward. See Figure 1. 

1.4.

Remove the hairpin clip from the clevis pin, 
which extends through the housing and shred-
der screen. Retain the clevis pin and hairpin clip. 
See Figure 1.

1.5.

Pivot the shredder screen upward and clean the 
surrounding area by scraping away debris. 

1.6.

Confirm that the spark plug wire is disconnected 
and away from spark plug. 

1.7.

Pull on the starter rope two-to-three times to 
purge any remaining debris from the reduction 
chamber.

1.8.

When the area is cleaned, pivot the shredder 
screen downward and re-secure with the clevis 
pin and hairpin clip removed earlier. 

1.9.

Reattach the debris collection bag to the dis-
charge chute, if desired.
