6. Instructions for use
6.1. Preparation
Check that the machine is assembled according to the assembly instructions. Check following points before using the machine:
•
No damage to the machine.
•
All bolts and nuts tightened firmly.
•
Oil level of the engine.
Always respect the safety and environment instructions!
Before starting the machine, always check that there are no woodchips in the rotor. These chips can block the rotor, making it
impossible to start the engine.
6.2. Starting the engine
Before starting the engine, execute following steps:
•
Open the fuel valve.
•
Close the choke handle.
•
Open the throttle valve for 1/3.
•
Verify that the emergency button is not active (see chapter 6.5).
•
Verify the position of the deflector (see chapter 6.6).
•
Put the on/off switch in the "on" position (not applicable for electric start machines).
Pull the starter rope (depending 3 to 6 times) to start the engine.
When the engine is running, push the choke handle back to the normal position. If you leave the choke handle open too long, you will
drawn the engine.
Let the engine run idle for at least 30 seconds before opening the throttle handle.
The machine is now ready for use.
Always start the machine idle (without load). Make sure that the input tube is empty and that there are no woodchips in the rotor.
6.3. Chipping/shredding
Put the branches in the input tube until the woodchipper starts pulling the branches into the machine. Release the branches.
When shredding branches with a big diameter, don't put too much branches at once. Make sure the speed of the engine doesn't drop.
Cut side branches thicker than 3cm off from the main branch and gradually feed them into the machine separately.
