pieces and turn it into mulch. Inspect the twig breaker for damage such as gouges, a bent, or missing
tooth. A damaged twig breaker should be
replaced. If the tooth is showing wear, remove
and rotate the twig breaker.

to the housing, remove the twig breaker.

The BXMC34S model is designed with a screen in the bottom of the rotor frame. The screen retains
the wood material in the rotor chamber until it is small enough to exit through the holes and drop to the
ground under the rotor.

Two optional screens are available: 3/4" (19 mm) diameter round for a finer mulch and 1-1/2" x 7.0"
(38 mm x 178 mm ) oblong hole for wet material. See Accessories section for ordering information.

the ground and the bottom of the
machine is exposed

and bolts that hold the screen into
the bottom housing.
