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 J-hammers 
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:
 •  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.
Shredding 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.
