shredding, or while performing any adjustments or repairs.
Branches are fed into the chipper chute for chipping, one at a time if they are thicker than 15mm or
several together if of smaller diameter. Since the throat opening is 63mm, some side shoots or side
branches may have to be trimmed from the main stalk before chipping. Short stubs of branches may
be pushed through the chipper section with the next branch. Never assume you know where the
blade is and try to push short branches in by hand
.
You don’t know where it is. Be safe, keep your
hands away from the chipping blade.
(1)
When feeding material into this equipment, be careful that pieces of metal, glass, rocks, cans or
other non-organic or foreign objects are not included.
(2)
When shredding newspaper only shred 3 to 4 sheets at a time. Putting entire sections in could
damage the rotor.
(3)
Do not allow an accumulation of processed material to build up under the discharge of the
garden recycler as this can prevent following shredded material discharging and will result in clogging.
Use a long handled stick or spade to remove processed material build-up. DO NOT USE YOUR
HAND OR FOOT. Always shut the unit off before clearing build-up.
(4)
Never allow your hands or any part of your body or clothing inside the feed hopper or discharge
area of the garden recycler. Use a wooden stick to push material down the hopper.
(5)
Keep all protective guards on the machine in place and in good working condition.
(6)
Always stand clear of the discharge area when the shredder is running.
(7)
Keep your face and body away from the feed hopper to avoid being struck by any material that
may bounce back. Do not over-reach, keep proper balance and footing.

(9)
Do not refuel the engine while it is hot, warm, or running.
