Air Cleaner

The air cleaner prevents damaging dirt, dust, etc.,

from entering the carburetor and being forced into
the engine and is important to engine life and
performance. For location of air cleaner, see Figure

14 inset.

To Service Air Cleaner:

Service air cleaner cartridge every 25 hours of
operation or every season, whichever comes earlier.
Service more often if you operate the chipper
shredder under extremely dusty conditions.

• Remove two hex screws and cover holding the
air cleaner cartridge in place. Remove air
cleaner assembly from inside the cover and
disassemble. See Figure 14.

• Wash pre-cleaner, if so equipped, in liquid
detergent and water. Squeeze dry with a clean
cloth. Saturate in engine oil, then squeeze in
clean, absorbent cloth to remove all of the
excess oil. Replace the pre-cleaner if it is very
dirty or damaged,

• To service cartridge, clean by tapping gently on
a flat surface. Do not use any oil, petroleum
solvents like kerosene, or pressurized air to
clean cartridge. Replace if the cartridge is very

dirty or damaged.

• Reassemble first the retainer on pre-cleaner
and cartridge and then the cartridge assembly
inside the cover. Insert tabs on cover into slots
in base and tighten the two screws earlier

removed.

Clean Engine

• Clean engine periodically. Remove dirt and

debris with a cloth or brush.

• Frequently remove grass clippings, dirt and
debris from cooling fins, air intake screen and

levers and linkage. This will help ensure
adequate cooling and correct engine speed.
See Figure 15.

Adjusting Carburetor

WARNING: If any adjustments are made to

A

Differences in fuel, temperature, altitude or load may
require minor adjustments to the carburetor. This

carburetor is equipped with an idie mixture valve with

a limiter and an idle speed adjustment screw.

* Start engine and let it run for about 5 minutes.

• Rotate carburetor throttle lever against the idle

the engine while the engine is running (e.g.
carburetor), keep clear of all moving parts.
Be careful of heated surfeoes and muffler.

speed screw and hold it. Turn idle speed screw
to obtain 1750 rpm. See Figure 22.

When sharpening the blade, follow the original
angle of grind as a guide. It is extremely
important that each cutting edge receives an
equal amount of grinding to prevent an
unbalanced blade.
An unbalanced blade will cause excessive

vibration when rotating at high speeds and may

cause damage to the unit The blade can be tested

for balance by balsuxxng it on a round shaft

screwdriver or nail. Remove metal from the heavy
side until it is bdanced evenly. See Rgure 21.

Rotate idle mixture valve full bavel clockwise

and then counter-clockwise. Rnally position idle
mixture valve in middle of travel. See Figure 22.

16

Check idle speed and re-adjust to 1750 rpm, if
necessary.
Engine should accelerate smoothly. If it does
not, adjust idle mixture valve counter-clockwise
1/8 turn.

WARNING: Air cleaner and its cover must

A

be assembled to the carburetor before
starting the engine.

Adjusting Engine Speed

The engine speed on your chipper-shredder has
been set at the factory. Do not attempt to increase
engine speed or it may result in personal injury. If you
believe the engine is running too fast or too slow, take
your chipper-shredder to the nearest SEARS service
center for repair and adjustment.

Tires

Recommended operating tire pressure is 24 p.s.i.
(sidewall of tire may give tire manufacturer's
recommended pressure). Equal tire pressure should
be maintained on both tires.

WARNING: Excessive ptessure when seating

A

beads may cause tire/rim assembly to burst writh

force sufficient to cause serious injury.

Replacing Fuel Filter

• Drain the gasoline tank by running the engine till

it runs out of gasoline.

• Using a set of pliers, squeeze and unclamp the fuel

line hose. Remove the old filter. See Rgure 23.

• Replace with a new filter and reclamp.

17

STORAGE

Prepare your chipper-shredder for storage at the end

of the seeison or if the unit will not be used for 30 days
or more.

WARNING: Never store machine with fuel

A

A yearly check-up by your local Sears service center

is a good way to make certain your chipper-shredder

will provide maximum performance for the next

season.

in the fuel tank inside of building where
fumes may reach an open flame or spark,
or where ignition sources are present such
as hot water and space heaters, furnaces,
clothes dryers, stoves, electric motors, etc.

Chipper-Shredder

• Clean the chipper-shredder thoroughly.

• Wipe unit with an oiled rag to prevent rust (use a

light oil or silicone).

Engine

IMPORTANT: It is important to prevent gum deposits

from forming in essential fuel system parts such as

carburetor, fuel filter, fuel hose, or tank during
storage. Also, experience indicates that alcohol
blended fuels (called gasohol or using ethanol or
methanol) can attract moisture which leads to
separation and formation of acids during storage.
Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of an engine
while in storage.

Drain the fuel tank.
Start the engine and let it run until the fuel lines

and carburetor are empty.

Drain carburetor.
Never use engine or carburetor cleaner
products in the fuel tank or permanent damage

may occur.
Use fresh fuel next season.

NOTE: Fuel stabilizer is an acceptable alternative in

minimizing the formation of fuei gum deposits during
storage.

Add stabilizer to gasoline in fuel tank or storage
container.

Always follow the mix ratio found on stabilizer '

container.

Run engine at least 10 minutes after adding

stabilizer to allow the stabilizer to reach the
carburetor.

Do not drain the gas tank and carburetor if using
fuel stabilizer. Drain all the oil from the
crankcase (this should be done after the engine

has been operated and is still warm) and refill
the crankcase with fresh oil.

If you have drained the fuel tank, protect the

inside of the engine as follows.

Remove spark plug, pour approximately 1/2

ounce (approximately one tablespoon) of engine

oil into cylinder and crank slowly to distribute oil.

Replace spark plug.

Other

• Do not store gasoline from one season to

another.

• Replace your gasoline can if your can starts to
rust. Rust and/or dirt in your gasoline will cause
problems. Store unit in a clean, dry area. Do not
store next to corrosive materials, such as

fertilizer.

NOTE: If storing in an unventiiated or metal storage

shed, be certain to rustproof the equipment by coating

with a light oil or silicone.
