 Brush Master™ Chipper/Shredder with 2-Way Feed

Heavy Duty Power Equipment

steps until engine fires.

Rapid retraction of the recoil starter cord can pull the

starter cord back faster than you can let go. When

starting the engine, pull the cord slowly until

resistance is felt then pull rapidly to avoid kickback.

NOTE: A noise will be heard when finding the start of the

compression cycle. This noise is caused by the flails and

fingers, which are part of the shredding mechanism, and

it should be expected until the impeller reaches full

speed.

Step 7: When engine starts, move choke control

gradually to the RUN position.

Step 8: After engine is started, gradually release choke.

Using the Chipper Shredder

Yard waste such as leaves and pine needles can be

raked up and placed in the chipper funnel for shredding.

DO NOT PUT BRANCHES INTO THE CHIPPER

FUNNEL. BRANCHES SHOULD BE FED INTO THE

SIDE CHIPPER CHUTE.

When using the side chipper chute to chip branches, it is

important to let the chipper feed the branches through

automatically. DO NOT attempt to force the branches

through. If the branches do not automatically feed

through, gently push the branch and then allow the

chipper to automatically feed the branch through. Forcing

branches into the side chute may wear the belt

prematurely.

Once material is shredded by the hammers on the

impeller assembly, it is discharged through the open

discharge chute or into the chipper bag.

Do not attempt to shred or chip any material other than

normal yard vegetation found (i.e., branches, leaves,

twigs, etc.) Avoid fibrous plants such as tomato vines

until they are thoroughly dried. Twigs and small branches

can be fed into the chipper chute. (See model

specifications for maximum cutting thickness.)

IMPORTANT: The hammer screen is located inside the

housing in the discharge area. If the screen becomes

clogged, remove and clean as instructed. For best

performance, it is also important to keep the chipper

blade sharp.

To Empty the Chipper Collection Bag

 Stop the engine.

 Release the drawstring and remove the bag from

the discharge chute.

 Empty bag and reattach to the discharge chute

opening.

secure after filling.

Never fill fuel tank indoors with engine running or

until the engine has been allowed to cool for at least

two minutes after running.

Starting the Engine

Step 3: Attach spark plug wire to spark plug. Make certain

the metal cap on the end of the spark plug is fastened

securely over the metal tip on the spark plug.

Step 4: Move choke lever on engine to CHOKE position.

(A warm engine may not require choking).

Step 5: Turn the fuel valve to the ON position.

Step 6: Grasp starter handle and pull rope out slowly until

engine reaches start of compression cycle (rope will pull

slightly harder at this point). Pull rope with a rapid,

continuous, full arm stroke. Keep a firm grip on starter

handle. Let the rope rewind slowly. Repeat the previous
