Operating Instructions
The stationary blade is designed with 4 sharp corners that can be utilized. When the corner facing the rotor
blade rounds over, remove the blade and re-install with a different corner facing the rotor blade. Use the anvil
to set the clearance to the rotor blade when re-installing. Be sure to tighten mounting bolts to their specified
torque.
The drive system is designed to function well without failing the shear pin. If it does fail, generally it is
being fed too fast or something very hard has been jammed into the rotor or between the blades. Always
unplug the system and determine the cause of the problem and correct it before resuming work
Anvil/Blade Clearance:
It is recommended that the clearance between the rotor and anvil be set and maintained at 1/32 to 1/16
inch to obtain the best performance. Use the stationary blade mounting bolts to set the clearance as re-
quired.
Twig Breaker:
Caution: Clear the area of bystanders, especially small children.
Stop the engine, remove the ignition key and place it in your pocket and wait for all moving parts to stop before
unplugging.
Pull the material out of the feed hopper. Be sure all the material is cleaned out and nothing is jammed or
wedged between the input opening and the rotor.
Pull the material out of the discharge hood. Use a stick to loosen any material jammed into the dis-
charge hood. Do not allow anything to remain in this area.
