10. Transporting the machine
Make sure to clear the shredding chamber before moving the machine. Make sure the
infeed opening is free of branchy material.
When moving the machine over greater distances (over 2 m), always take care to turn
off the engine.
The working position must be when the machine is statio-
nary. It follows that in order to move the machine status must
be changed from stationary to mobile. In order to do so, pull
the machine towards you grasping the loading hopper handle,
whilst tipping it forward round the wheels. Putting your foot
against the wheel axle comes in useful when tipping the
machine forward.
Continue to tilt the machine until the loading hopper hand-
le is at no more than 80 cm from the ground.
Then, grasp the chassis upper tube with your left hand
while holding the loading hopper handle with your right hand.
In so doing, you can hold the machine with a firm grip for
smooth pulling and pushing.
Only adults may move or transport the machine.
Also, during the transport, do not allow children, unauthori-
sed persons or animals within a radius of 3 m around the
machine.
It is critical to judiciously select the route in such a way as
to release yourself from the worries of tripping up over some
obstacles. The transport route is preferably flat with an even
bottom.
When taking a collection bag full of waste chippings to the
dumping area using your brush chipper, it’s good practice to
fit the carrying rack.
This carrying rack assists in supporting the load of the full
collection bag, which in turn adds to give long bag life expect-
ancy.
