1. Leaves and short stalk (bean plants), cobs, sod and similar material should be fed into the
hopper and chipped in 16 interlaced chipping lots.
2. Do not open the plastic cover when adding more material.
3. The leaves and similar material is a little hard to go into the hopper. Use a wood stick to push
them in instead of by hand or other metal bars.
4. Keep your face and body away from the feed hopper to avoid being struck by any material that
may bounce back.
5. The discharge area is easily clogged if the material remains more water or sticky. Always stop
engine before clearing build-up with wood tools. Never use hand or foot.
6. Never attempt to clear an accumulation of processed material when engine is still on work.
7. Perhaps you get other pretty plants in your garden and the material will be processed to be
organic fertilizer as follows.
Put the discharge towards a wall, large board or other obstruction. Opening the discharge door
and remove the screen to allow the processed material pile up. With a garden spade feed this
material into the shredder until it reaches the consistency you want.
Keep pet, bystander away from the discharge area while the machine is on operation. Set the
screen back to the place and close the discharge door when shredding is finished.
VII. LEAVES & GRASS SHREDDING
VIII. SHARPEN THE BLADE
Cutting blade is made of special material and the blade is very sharp after heat treatment. It may
be dull after used for some time.
Judgment for dull blade: when the chipping sound become very ponderous and the belt always
skids while it is not loose, or feeding speed gets slow, please remove the blade and check if it is dull.
1. Turn off the engine before remove the blade.
• Remove the board covering the blade.
• Open the small outlet of the discharge.
• Remove the discharge screen.
2. Wearing safety gloves, turn the blade tray to a proper position.
3. Remove the location screw on the two pieces of blade.
