It is very important to use and maintain your shredder chipper for it to perform correctly. Many owners think that a wood chipper is a machine that can eat through wood regardless of what is thrown at it. This is not the case at all, a wood chipper needs to be handled with care and patience. We hope that the following tips will help you obtain the best results from your machine. An electric shredder chipper are little machines that are great for clearing the backyard and will work well with lots of twigs, leaves, brush, and sticks. It is very important to use the correct gauge of electrical extension cord to the machine thus allowing it to work effectively. If you have an extension cord of between fifty feet to one hundred feet, it mush be a twelve gauge. The reason for this is that the electrical current would weaken on a lower gauge causing its motor to under perform. Some owners of these chippers sometimes complain about the lack of power in the motor and blame it on the machines poor design, when in fact the real reason is under powering is because of the wrong gauge extension cord. Also without using the correct gauge extension cord the motor will eventually burn out. If you are running your electric chipper from a standard wall plug, make sure that no other appliances are sharing the socket because the full strength of the current will be sapped by the other appliances. This is especially true with appliances such as a refrigerator or washing machine. When you are preparing your shredder chipper for a job, make for sure you have it positioned on some flat ground so that the machine is stable and will not move around. Also make for sure you have plenty of space so that you can feed in the debris unhindered. Knowing how to use a wood chipper is important when it comes to feeding branches into your machine. The first thing to keep in mind is to make sure the branches are not covered in wet leaves as these can clog up the machine's blades. If the pile of debris you are planning to chip is wet, leave it until it has dried out. Another cause of chippers jamming, especially the cheaper models is inserting old wood which has fallen and hardened too much for the blades to process it. The best type of wood is the type which is relatively fresh. Does you chipper shredder mulcher have a tendency to jam when you are feeding in leaves on their own? If so, it has been found that they will go through better if mixed with sticks or twigs. This give the blades something solid to grab hold of when processing the material. Knowing how to use a chipper shredder is important when feeding wood into the machine. You should do this slowly, and let the machine's blades grab and draw it in rather than forcing the branches in and clogging the insides. It is imperative that this is done while wearing a good pair of protective gloves. After you have fed in your last branch for chipping, make sure that you keep the machine running to spit out the very last piece. Some owners have switched the machine off while leaving pieces still inside which has resulted in problems when the chipper is used the next time. One thing which is extremely important for obtaining the best results from your chipper is to keep the blades sharpened at all times. On some of the cheaper models you should sharpen them literally after every major wood chipping job to ensure the machine is working effectively. Do not worry because this is not such a burden to do as you might think because most blades can be removed with the turn of just a couple of nuts and screws. Most blades can then be sharpened with either a wet stone or a high quality file. When using a shredder chipper it is very important for the user to wear protective gloves and goggles. It is also recommended to wear some ear mufflers due to how noisy these machines are. The last thing you want are any injuries. If you follow these simple guidelines when learning to use a chipper, you will find that you will have great results and will continue to do so over and over again. Most importantly you will also ensure to get a great value for money from a reliable chipper shredder machine.
