STARTING16.1

VACUUMING OPERATION

16.2

Like all mechanical tools, reasonable care must

be used when operating machine.

Wearing Eye Protection and Durable

Gloves is recommended while operating

chipper.

Use caution when using chipper

Your

TERMITE

® chipper is designed to process tree branches

and limbs up to 2" (50.8mm) diameter.

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)

CLEARING A CLOGGED CHIPPER HOPPER-TKD ONLY

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).

Disconnect spark plug wire.

Remove debris bag quick disconnect from debris outlet on

machine.

Wearing durable gloves, access impeller through

debris outlet on fan housing and rotate impeller

counter clock wise to dislodge and remove jam and

remove debris from hopper with tongs or equivalent.

OPERATION continued

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.

•DO NOT leave debris in bag while in storage.

Debris bags are normal replaceable wear items.

DEBRIS BAG

16.7

Wood chips made from branches in your own yard make excel-

lent mulch. A thick blanket of wood chips around plants and

flowers to keeps weeds out and moisture in.

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.

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.

Before turning machine off, use the Tamper to slowly push

remaining pieces of wood through the chipper. This can

prevent any remaining wood from jamming in the chipper when

machine is turned off.

Do not leave tamper on the ground, store tamper in the chipper

hopper.

Using two people to lift machine is recommended. Lift holding the

handle and front of nozzle. Secure in place during transport.

Never store engine indoors or in enclosed poorly ventilated

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:

Be sure engine is cool. Do not smoke. Remove all

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.

Do not store with debris in bag.

CHIPPER BLADE REMOVAL AND SHARPENING-TKD ONLY

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.

Chipper blades are normal replaceable wear items.

DANGER Chipper blade is sharp.

Replace any damaged blade.

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.

CAUTION:

Be careful to avoid heat buildup

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.

40o

Blade Blade

INCORRECTCORRECT

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.

IMPELLER REMOVAL and CHIPPER ADJUSTMENT

1. Wait for engine to cool and disconnect spark plug.

2. Drain fuel and oil from the engine.

3. Remove bag, quick release, and upper handle. Do not kink,

stretch, or break control cables, control housings, or end fittings while

removing handles.

4. Remove housing top plate by removing bolts around outside of

housing.

5. Leaving engine fastened to top plate, remove impeller bolt and

lock washer and slide impeller off crankshaft ( A puller may be

required).

6. Retain shim washers used at end of crankshaft for use at impeller

reinstallation (see fig. 7). However, your unit may or may not have

required the use of shim washers.

7. If impeller slides off freely, proceed to (step 11 or step 15).

(Do not drop impeller).

8. If impeller does not slide off crankshaft, place two crowbars

between impeller and housing on opposite sides. Pry impeller away

from engine until it loosens.

Using a penetrating oil can help loosen a

stuck impeller.

9. If the impeller cannot be loosened, obtain a 1” (25.4mm) longer

bolt of the same diameter and thread type as the impeller bolt. Invert

engine and impeller and support engine above ground to prevent

recoil damage. Thread longer bolt by hand into the crankshaft until

bolt bottoms. Using a suitable gear or wheel puller against the bolt

head and the impeller back-plate (near the blades), remove impeller

from shaft.
