WASTE MATERIALS GUIDE
Your chipper/shredder is designed to efficiently process
a wide variety of organic yard and garden waste materi-
als. To obtain consistent performance, extend the life of
your unit, and help ensure safe operation, do not
attempt to process non-organic materials, and always
follow the material requirements shown in the Waste
Materials Guide below.
If you are unsure about processing a material not cov-
ered in the guide below, contact your local authorized
dealer.
If you encounter any difficulties while processing any of
these recommended materials, consult the troubleshoot-
ing section of this manual for guidance and recommend-
ed corrective action.
