DESCRIPTION OF OPERATION
Understanding how your machine works will help you achieve the best results when using your Chipper Shredder. The
following descriptions define the operation of your machine.
CHIPPING OPERATION
The chipping operation takes place on the front side of the machine, where hardened steel chipper blades are mounted on
a rotating rotor assembly. Material fed into the chipper chute is sliced into small chips and propelled out through a
discharge screen. The chips can be diverted into a container or onto the ground.
SHREDDING OPERATION
In this operation hardened steel shredder knives grind up material fed into the shredder chute. The shredded material then
leaves the shredder area by traveling through the discharge screen. The shredded material can be diverted into a container
or onto the ground.
