Working system

  Soft material, leaves and twigs can be
shreddered directly in the main hopper.
 Thick material and branches must be fed
using the side hopper.
  Do not operate the machine unless the engine,
or electric motor, is running at full speed. Do
not allow the engine to labour but feed at a rate
which allows
throughout the operation cycle.
  Do not force material into the hopper as this
could overload the machine and cause damage
not covered by the warranty.
Main Hopper
Material fed into the main hopper, reaches the
hammers directly. Because of this only light
weight material should be fed in this way.
Important:
The hammer action
through the hopper without manual assistance. In
the case of blockages use the feeding tools
engine
supplied and under no circumstances attempt to
push it down manually.
Side Hopper (Branch-Cutter)
Use this for all long material and thick branches
up to the capacity limit of the machine. Do not
force material in so fast that the engine is forced
to labour.
Cutting screen (optional)
This should only be used with dry material which
is then re-chopped until it is quite fine..
Important:
Never use this for damp material, which will
otherwise block up and jam it.
Note:
Damp material should be shreddered with the
screen folded down in the horizontal position.
Prevention of pile-up during ejection
Keep outlet clear. Always check that there is
enough space from outlet for the material being
finely
chopped.
