PROBLEMS & SOLUTIONS

Problem

The shredder does not

perform properly: the

wood is not pulled in

by the machine itself.

The chips do not have

the same size.

The engine does not

start/ the engine shuts

off by itself

The rotor jams

The engine will not

start/turn because the

rotor is jammed.

Manual Shredder - chipper

Cause

-The blades are worn too

much

-The diameter of the

branches inserted into

the machine is too large

-There is too big a gap

between the ﬁxed blade

and the counter blade:

correct gap is 0.5 mm

(half a millimetre)

-Electrical problem with

the engine

-No fuel

-No or not enough oil in

the engine (the oil should

be level with the threads

of the fillr hole.)

-the diameter of the

branch is too big

-there are unacceptable

materials such as stones

or metal in the input tube

-a length of branch

remains in the rotor

after the engine was last

stopped.

Solution

-Change or sharpen the blades

and counter-blade. Note that the

blades are sharpened on both

edges so they can be reversed.

-Shut the engine off and remove

the branch that is too thick

-Adjust the gap between the blade

and the counter-blade by moving

the counter-blade in the slots

Check that

-The input tube is correctly ﬁtted

and the bolts are tight

-Put the start-switch of the engine

"On"

-De-activate the emergency switch

(turn the knob)

-Check oil and fuel levels

-Contact your dealer

Important : Screw back the blade

bolts.

-shut off the engine, remove the

spark plug cap and turn the

rotor counter-clock-wise. Use a

wooden stick to turn the rotor and

to remove the material from the

rotor and input tube.

If necessary, remove the cap of

the bearing housing and rotate the

rotor axle with a spanner.

If necessary, remove the input or

output tube to facilitate access to

the rotor.

Check the sharpeness of the

blades and counter blade and

replace them if necessary.

Important: Screw back the blade

bolts.
