@jeremylee99100 It is a shredding bin...it can lower and you can rake leaves in...or leave it up and just put loose pieces into the machine for shredding.
After watching what this could do I came accross one on Craig's List and it did not nearly do the job yours is doing. The former owner said he sharpened the blades but I am guessing he didn't because the pieces discharged are pretty big... I was hoping for mulch not sticks. Where might I be able to find an owners manual so I know how to properly sharpen the blades? These posts have been a big help!!
I know I should be able to find one on line but I have not been able to... that is how I found your video. If it's not too much trouble can you look in your manual and send me the website?! I don't want to tear it apart, sharpen the blades and then not be able to get it put back together.
Yes...crazy as in good. Before sharpening, the chips were getting longer and longer...upwards of one to two inches. After sharpening the chips were uniform in size, about 1/4 to 1/2 inch, a great size for mulch.
I thought it worked great until I sharpened the blades for the first time...now it's crazy! It's getting a finer chipped material and the engine isn't working as hard on the big stuff.

Were you able to post a video of blade sharpening? I was able to get the big blade off but not the small ones.

Most manufacturers have a website with owners manuals and such. and yes...she needs her blades sharpened.

Yeah..if not, I'll scan a few pages of mine...and better yet, I'll show you how it's done on mine...very simple to do...I'll film it this weekend. :)

looks like saw dust instead of chippings

As the blades get dull, the chippings get longer and longer. Resharpening the blades, yes, it does look like sawdust.

Man if you want to keep your hands, keep them out of the chute..
It's scary watching you use that machine.

Crazy as in good? How big are the chips created before vrs after? Can you use any of it as mulch?
