Turn Yard Waste into Useful Mulch with the BILT HARD Chipper Shredder
Built for routine yard cleanup, the BILT HARD Chipper Shredder combines a side chipper chute for larger branches with a top shredder hopper for smaller branches, leaves, light brush, and other soft organic material. Its compact wheeled design makes it practical for garden, landscaping, and property-maintenance jobs.
Specifications
Handles Branches up to 3 Inches
Feed tree limbs and branches up to 3 inches in diameter through the side chipper chute. The chipper is designed to process one branch at a time and automatically pulls material into the cutting system as it operates.
For best results, allow the machine to process material at its own pace rather than forcing branches into the chute.
Top Hopper for Leaves & Light Yard Debris
The upper shredder hopper is designed for light brush, leaves, soft organic material, and branches up to 1/2 inch in diameter.
Simply feed material gradually into the hopper while keeping hands clear of the opening. When necessary, use another stick to safely guide material into the shredder.
Dual-Blade Chipping System
The internal blade assembly includes two chipper blades, engineered to cut branches as they enter through the side chute. The machine also uses additional L-shaped and rectangular cutting components within the rotor assembly.
The manual's blade assembly identifies two main blades, two L blades, and two rectangular blades.
Easy to Move Around the Yard
Two 12-inch pneumatic tires and an integrated handle make the chipper shredder easier to maneuver around the work area, while the support leg helps stabilize the engine and machine during operation.
Designed for Dry Branches
For proper operation, use dry wood and dry branches that snap completely when bent.
Fresh, wet, or live branches can become difficult to cut and may cause the machine to jam.
Simple Gas-Powered Operation
Before starting the machine, add:
17 oz / 0.5 L engine oil
and fill the fuel tank with:
Fresh regular unleaded gasoline, minimum 87 octane
The maximum fuel tank capacity listed in the manual is 88 oz / 2.6 L. Never attempt to start the engine before adding engine oil.
Important Safety & Usage Notes
Always operate the chipper shredder on a flat, level surface and wear ANSI-approved safety goggles, hearing protection, heavy-duty work gloves, and a dust mask or respirator.
Never place your hands inside the hopper or near the discharge opening. Do not feed metal, stone, glass, or other foreign objects into the machine.
If the machine becomes clogged, turn the engine off, wait until all moving parts have completely stopped, disconnect the spark plug wire, and clear the obstruction before restarting.
