MAINTENANCE

WARNING! Always wear gloves when cleaning.

Cleaning chipper shredder

1. Unscrew the hopper locking knob counter clockwise and open the hopper.

2. Clean cutting blades and discharge area and remove wood sticks or objects that may clog the

blades.

3. The chipper shredder has two blades that are attached to a rotary plate with two screws. Before

any maintenance or cleaning is done on the blades, always turn the switch off and disconnect the

plug from the power source.

4. Check blades for damage. Use only identical replacement parts if it becomes necessary to replace

them.

5. Return the hopper to its upright position and tighten the knob before operating the chipper

shredder.

6. Use only a warm damp cloth and a soft brush to clean your chipper shredder. Always wear safety

glasses to protect your eyes during cleaning.

Caution: Never spray water on the chipper shredder or wash it with water. Do not use detergents or

solvents as these could cause irreparable damage to your shredder.

7. The fastening screws of the stand assembly should be checked from time to time. Periodically

check all nuts, bolts and screws to be sure the shredder is in safe working condition.

8. Make sure the ventilation slots are always kept clean and are free of debris.

9. To protect the chipper shredder from corrosion when storing for a long period, treat the cutting

blade with oil.

Cutting blade replacement

1. The reversible blade is fixed to the rotary plate with two screws. Before any maintenance or

cleaning of the blades, always turn the switch off and disconnect the plug from the outlet.

2. Turn the Hopper Locking Knob counterclockwise until the housing cover can be opened.

3. Lift up the housing cover to expose the two blades.

4. Align the slots on the board, the blade support and the main body and insert a metal rod like a

screwdriver into the slots to prevent rotating when removing the blade with the supplied hex key.

5. Remove the old blade. Either reverse the blade so the sharp edge is in the cutting position or insert

a replacement blade. Use the same method to replace the other blade.

6. Replace and tighten the two screws to secure the new blade to the support.
