lock nut. Make certain edges of the upper guide assem-
-bly are underneath stop washers. See figure 3. Plastic

guide extension attached to the hopper assembly. See
figure 4. Attach the hopper assembly to the upper guide
assembly as follows:

—side of hopper assembly. See figure 4. Push hop
per pivot door down inside lower part of hopper. The
hopper assembly fits inside upper guide assembly.

Secure hopper assembly using truss machine
screws and nuts just removed, and six additional
screws and nuts found in hardware pack. The heads
of truss machine screws should be to inside of hop
per guide assembly. Tighten all nuts finger tight. Lift
hopper assembly and snap into raised position.
Tighten all nuts securely.
ATTACHING THE CATCHER BAG
Your chipper-shredder is equipped with a catcher bag
to catch the shredded material.
-•To attach the bag, place the opening of the bag over
the chute deflector so it completely covers the chute
opening. Depress the plunger on the drawstring, pull
on the drawstring until the bag is tight around the
chute opening. Release plunger to lock it into posi
tion. See figure 5.
