Cleaning The Reduction Chamber
WARNING:
The impeller's shredder
blade and chipper blades are sharp. Wear
leather work gloves to protect your hands
when cleaning out the reduction
chamber.
If the reduction chamber becomes clogged with
debris, the shredder screen can be pivoted upward
so that you can clean the surrounding area. To do so,
proceed as follows:
1. Stop engine, disconnect spark plug, and make
certain the chipper shredder has come to a
complete stop.
WARNING:
The muffler and
surrounding area will be hot if the engine
has been running. Use caution and
protect your hands if working near the
muffler.
2. If attached, remove debris bag. Remove the
two wing knobs on either side of the chute
deflector and pivot the chute deflector
upward. See A in Figure 5-1.
