OPERATION
INTENDED USE: This machine is designed for vacuuming
leaves, grass clippings and other types of organic litter and
for chipping brush, limbs, corn and sunflower stalks and
palm fronds.
Debris mixed with cans, bottles and small amounts of sand
can be vacuumed; however, it is not this machine's primary
purpose. Vacuuming cans, bottles and sand will affect the
longevity of your machine.
Do not operate if excessive vibration occurs. If excessive
vibration occurs, shut engine off immediately and check for
damaged or worn impeller, loose impeller bolt, loose impeller
key, loose engine or lodged foreign objects. Note: See parts list
for proper impeller bolt torque specifications. (See trouble
shooting section on page 12).
Like all mechanical tools, reasonable care must
be used when operating machine.
Inspect machine work area and machine before operating. Make sure that all operators of this equipment are
trained in general machine use and safety.
PUT OIL IN ENGINE BEFORE STARTING.
STARTING16.1
ENGINE: See engine manufacturer’s instructions
for type and amount of oil and gasoline used.
Engine must be level when checking and filling oil and
gasoline.
ENGINE SPEED: Controlled by throttle lever on the handle.
Under normal conditions, operate at minimum throttle to
accomplish your current cleaning task.
FUEL VALVE: Move fuel valve to "ON" position (when
provided on engine).
CHOKE: Operated with throttle control (Honda only).

Several small branches can be grouped together and fed
together into the chipper (see fig 2.).
When feeding forked branches, squeeze forks together and feed
into chipper entrance (DO NOT overload). If forks are too large,
use a pair of loppers to trim forks down to size. A lopper
storage bracket is provided on every unit (loppers are not
included)
16.4
Under normal circumstances, allow time for machine
to clear all wood from chipper hopper before stopping
engine. Otherwise, remaining pieces of wood will jam
inside of chipper when engine stops. (See Tamper page 7).

DEBRIS BAG
Debris bags are normal replaceable wear items.
Note: Frequently empty debris to prevent bag overloading with
more weight than you can lift.
An optional bag and dust cover is available for use where debris will be
vacuumed in dusty conditions (see Optional Accessories shown on
page 1).
DO NOT place bag on or near hot surface, such as engine. Run
engine at 1/2 throttle for first 1/2 hour to condition new bag. Your
new bag requires a break-in period to condition the pores of the
material against premature blockage. The entire bag surface
serves as a filter, and must be able to breath to have good vacuum
performance.
Be sure engine has come to a complete stop before removing
or emptying bag.
This vacuum is designed for picking up trash, organic
material and other similar debris
(see Safety Warnings page 2-3).
However, many vacuums are used where dust is mixed with
trash. Your unit can intermittently vacuum in dusty areas. Dust
is the greatest cause of lost vacuum performance. However,
following these rules will help maintain your machine's ability to
vacuum in dusty conditions:
•Run machine at idle to quarter throttle.
•The debris bag must be cleaned more frequently. A vacuum
with a clean, pillow soft bag will have good pickup performance.
One with a dirty, tight bag will have poor pickup performance. If
dirty, empty debris and vigorously shake bag free of dust.
•Pressure-wash debris bag if normal cleaning does not fully
clean bag. Bag should be thoroughly dry before use.
Having one or more spare debris bags is a good way to reduce down time
while dirty bags are being cleaned.
16.5
MULCH
Wood chips made from branches in your own yard make excellent mulch. A thick blanket of wood chips around plants and
flowers to keeps weeds out and moisture in.
16.6
Vacuumed leaves, grass and other organic material from your own
yard can be emptied into a pile or composter to provide enriched
soil for later use as fertilizer in gardens and flower beds.
Note: Allow green chips to dry before spreading around living
plants.
COMPOST
•DO NOT leave debris in bag while in storage.
ENGINE
When servicing engine refer to specific manufacturers engine
owner's manual. All engine warranty is covered by the specific
engine manufacturer. If your engine requires warranty or other
repair work contact your local servicing engine dealer. When
contacting a dealer for service it is a good idea to have your
engine model number available for reference(See table page 11).
If you can not locate a servicing dealer in your area you can
contact the manufacturers national service organization.

areas with fuel in tank, where fuel fumes may reach an open
flame, spark or pilot light, as on a furnace, water heater, clothes
dryer or other gas appliance.
If engine is to be unused for 30 days or more, prepare as
follows:
gasoline from carburetor and fuel tank to prevent gum deposits
from forming on these parts and causing possible malfunction of
engine. Drain fuel outdoors, into an approved container, away
from open flame. Run engine until fuel tank is empty and
engine runs out of gasoline.
NOTE: Fuel stabilizer (such as Sta-Bil) is an acceptable
alternative in minimizing the formation of fuel gum deposits
during storage. Add stabilizer to gasoline in fuel tank or storage
container. Always follow mix ratio found on stabilizer container.
Run engine at least 10 min. after adding stabilizer to allow it to
reach the carburetor.

CHIPPER BLADE REMOVAL AND SHARPENING-TKD ONLY
Chipper blades are normal replaceable wear items.
DANGER
KEEP HANDS and FEET AWAY
DANGER Chipper blade is sharp.
Replace any damaged blade.
Depending on the type and amount of wood being chipped, the
chipper blade will eventually get dull, losing it’s cutting ability.
Evidence of a dull blade is a noticeably reduced chipping ability or a
rough cut on end of branch.
Note: The chipper blade gap is factory set and should be checked
each time impeller is removed from engine crankshaft and reset if
required. If reassembly requires a different quantity of shim washers,
Billy Goat® shim washer must be used.
10. Using a 3/16" Allen wrench and 1/2" open end wrench, remove
chipper blade from impeller.
11. Sharpen blade by lightly grinding the cutting edge of the blade
at 40 degrees (see fig. 5). It is not necessary to remove all nicks
from the cutting edge.
in the blade during sharpening. This will reduce it’s heat- treated
hardness properties and will reduce blade life. Evidence of too
much heat build-up is a change of color along sharpened edge.
12. The same chipper blade can be sharpened several times.
However, blade replacement is required when blade no longer
overhangs the chip relief hole in impeller back plate or if increased
vibration occurs (see fig. 5).
13. Chipper blade installation is in reverse order of removal.

14. To reinstall impeller, use a new impeller bolt and lockwasher
and use exactly the same crankshaft impeller shim washers as
were removed during disassembly (unless they were damaged).
Note:
your unit may or may not have required the use of shim
washers
15. Tighten impeller bolt. Torque impeller bolt to 50 Ft. Lbs. (68 N.m)
(see item 51 on page 11).
16. Slowly rotate impeller to insure proper chipper blade clearance.
Check to see that gap between chipper blade and anvil surface (on
lower side of housing top plate) measures between
0.040"(1.02mm) and 0.080"(2.03mm).
17. If gap is less than 0.040"(0.51mm), add shim washer 890130
(0.060"{1.52mm} thick) and/or 890131 (0.020"{1.02mm} thick),
whichever is required. If gap is more than 0.080"(2.03mm), remove
one or more shim washers as needed to obtain correct gap (see fig.
6 & fig. 7). The chipper will function at up to a maximum of
0.125"(3.18mm) gap.

3. If adjustments are required, loosen 4 carriage bolts (item 90),
that hold bearing brackets for jackshaft assembly.
4. Adjusting all (3) chains at same time is necessary and can be
done by pulling jackshaft (item 93), up and forward.
5. Tension chains - similar to bicycle chain tightness with
about 1/8” (3.2mm) deflection with light hand pressure midway between sprockets. A slightly loose chain is better than an
over tightened chain. DO NOT over tighten.
6. With chains aligned and tensioned, and jackshaft (item 93),
square and level, tighten carriage bolts (item 90).
7. Completely rotate drive wheels around several times to
insure there are no excessively tight areas in the chain.
8. Repeat steps 4 thru 7 if chains need readjustment.
9. Reinstall chainguard (item 118).
CHAIN REPLACEMENT
1. With chain guard removed, loosen carriage bolts (item 90),
that hold jackshaft (item 93), and bearing plates (item 101).
2. To replace inner chain (item 88), remove jackshaft
assembly and install replacement chain.
3. To replace wheel chains (item 87), slide bearing plates
(item 101), toward engine to loosen chains. Remove front wheels.
Reinstall replacement chains with wheels and onto
jackshaft sprockets.
4. See steps 4 thru 7 for chain alignment and adjustment.
5. Reinstall chainguard (item 118).
