IMPORTANT: There is a flail screen located inside
the housing in the discharge area. If the flail screen
becomes clogged, remove and clean as instructed in
the Service and Adjustments section. For best per
formance, it is important to keep the shredding blade
and the chipper blades sharp. If the composition of
the material being discharged changes (becomes
stringy, etc.) or if the rate at which the material is dis
charged slows down considerably, it is likely that the
\
shredding blade and/or chipper blades are dull and
need to be replaced. Refer to Service and
Adjustments section.
GAS
• Remove fuel cap and fill fuel tank with about 1 gal
lon of clean, fresh, lead-free grade automotive
gasoline. DO NOT use Ethyl or high octane gaso
line. Be certain container is clean and free from
rust or foreign particles. Never use gasoline that
may be stale from long periods of storage in the
container. Replace fuel cap.

CLEAN ENGINE
Clean engine periodically. Remove dirt and debris
with a cloth or brush. Cleaning with a forceful spray of
water is not recommended as water could contami
nate the fuel system.
Yearly or every 25 hours, whichever occurs first,
remove the blower housing and clean the areas
shown in figure 17 to avoid overspeeding, overheating
and engine damage. Clean more often if necessary.
WARNING: PERIODICALLY CLEAN MUF
FLER AREA TO REMOVE ALL GRASS,

SPARK PLUG
The spark plug should be cleaned and the gap reset
to .030" at least once a season or every 50 hours of
operation. See figure 18. Spark plug replacement is
recommended at the start of each season. Refer to
engine parts list for correct spark plug type.
NOTE: Do not sandblast spark plug. Spark plug
should be cleaned by scraping or wire brushing and
washing with a commercial solvent.
DIRT AND COMBUSTIBLE DEBRIS.
FUEL FILTER
Your engine is equipped with a replaceable in-line fuel
filter. Replace the fuel filter every season. See figure
16. Refer to engine parts list for correct replacement
filter.
MUFFLER
Do not operate the chipper-shredder without a muffler
or tamper with the exhaust system. Damaged mufflers
or spark arresters could create a fire hazard. Inspect

STORAGE
Prepare your chipper-shredder for storage at the end
of the season or if the unit will not be used for 30 days
or more.
WARNING: NEVER STORE MACHINE
WITH FUEL IN THE FUEL TANK INSIDE
A
NOTE: A yearly check-up by your local Sears Service
Center is a good way to make certain your chippershredder will provide maximum performance for the
next season.
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 SEPARA
TION AND FORMATION OF ACIDS DURING STOR
AGE. ACIDIC GAS CAN DAMAGE THE FUEL SYS
TEM OF AN ENGINE WHILE IN STORAGE.
• Drain the fuei tank.
• Start the engine and iet it run until the fuel lines and
carburetor are empty.
• 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 fuel gum deposits during
storage. Add stabilizer to gasoline in fuel tank or stor
age 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 carbure
tor 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 table
spoon) 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^r 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 unventilated or metal storage
shed, be certain to rustproof the equipment by coating
with a light oil or silicone.

has come to a complete stop and disconnect spark
plug wire from the spark plug before unclogging the
chute.
MOVE IT AWAY FROM SPARK PLUG
BEFORE PERFORMING ANY ADJUST
MENTS OR REPAIRS.
Loosen the two hand knobs on each side of the
chute deflector. Lift the chute deflector up, and tie it
out of the way.
Remove two hairpin clips from the clevis pins which
extend through the housing. Remove the clevis
pins. Lift the flail screen from inside the housing.

SHARPENING OR REPLACING THE BLADES
CHIPPER BLADES
• Disconnect spark plug wire and move it av/ay from
spark plug.
• Remove the flail screen as instructed in arevious
section.
• Remove the chipper chute by removing tfiree hex
nuts and washers. A 1/2" wrench is required. See
figure 19.
NOTE: When reassembling, the cupped waslier goes
on the bottom of the chipper chute with the cupped
side against the chute.
• Rotate the impeller assembly by hand until you
locate one of the chipper blades in the chipper
chute opening. Remove the blade, using a 3/16"
alien wrench on the outside of the blade ind 1/2"
wrench on the impeller assembly (inside the hous
ing). See figure 20.
• Remove the other blade in the same manner.
Replace or sharpen blades. If sharpening, make cer
tain to remove an equal amount from each blade.

14
Page 15
• 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 unbal
anced 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 balancing it
on a round shaft screwdriver or nail. Remove metal
from the heavy side until it is balanced evenly. See
figure 22.
• When reassembling the blade, tighten to between
550 and 650 inch pounds, or lacking torque
wrench, tighten securely.
FLAILS
The flails, located inside the housing, may be
reversed when they become dull. It is suggested that
this procedure be performed by your nearest Sears
Service Department.
THROHLE ADJUSTMENT
To adjust throttle control lever, loosen or tighten wing
nut until throttle control lever moves with some resis
tance and still remains in desired position when
engine is running. See figure 23.
NOTE: A DIRTY AIR CLEANER WILL CAUSE
ENGINE TO RUN ROUGH. BE CERTAIN AIR
CLEANER IS CLEAN AND ATTACHED TO THE
CARBURETOR BEFORE ADJUSTING CARBURE
TOR. DO NOT MAKE UNNECESSARY ADJUST
MENTS. FACTORY SETTINGS ARE SATISFACTO
RY FOR MOST APPLICATIONS AND CONDITIONS.
Never attempt to change maximum engine speed. It is
pre-set at the factory and shouid be changed only by
a qualified service technician who has the necessary
equipment.
The carburetor may need re-adjusting if engine lacks
power or does not idle properly. If adjustments are
needed, proceed as follows.

() finger tight only. Forcing may cause damage.
Then open 1-1/2 turns counterclockwise ().
• Start engine and allow to warm for five minutes.
• Move throttle control lever to IDLE position.
• Rotate throttle counterclockwise {tr^ ) and hold
against idle speed adjusting screw. Turn idle speed
adjusting screw until engine is running at 1750
RPM.
• Turn idle mixture valve clockwise (r>) (lean mix
ture) until engine JUST starts to slow. Then turn it
counterclockwise () (rich mixture) until engine
starts to run unevenly. Set at midpoint between rich
and lean mixture.
• Recheck idle RPM and readjust if necessary.
• Move throttle control lever to FAST position.
Engine should accelerate without hesitation or
sputtering. If It does not, carburetor should be read
justed, usually to a slightly richer mixture.
