The Blackstone CSB70L garden shredder is intended for crushing dung and twigs to an easy-to-handle overall size suitable for composting. Shredding operations also allow reducing the material decomposing time.
The Blackstone CSB70L petrol wood chipper is provided with dual hopper.
The main hopper is mostly intended for large twigs as well as green material or small-sized branches up to 10 mm diameter. It is large and allows processing high volumes and quantities of material simultaneously.
*It is not recommended to shred grass and leaves alone, without any small branches because this model is not equipped with self-feeding system.
The second hopper of the Blackstone CSB70L wood chipper can be only used for shredding branches up to 76 mm maximum diameter.
The Blackstone CSB70L garden shredder is powered by a 212 cc Loncin petrol engine featuring 7 Hp. The shredding unit consists of 2 blades, 10 hammers and 10 knives.
The main body is entirely made of steel except for the toolbox.
2 blades + 10 knives - 10 hammers
Warning: Like all wood chippers and garden shredders, it is not suited for shredding grass, leaves, pine needles, etc. (it is intended to shred branches, but it can also grind leaves, needles and others)
Garden shredders intended use:
- The wood chipper must grind only green branches and not dried ones (which would limit its shredding capacity and lead to quick deterioration of the blades);
- The branches must be preferably long, smooth and not knobby (otherwise the cutting diameter would be reduced);
- The branch cutting diameter indicated is the maximum, so it is advised not to shred larger branches. In this case it would be better to purchase a shredder with a larger branch cutting diameter;
- The cutting diameter can vary according to the amounts of wood (e.g: oak, olive, plum and peach are hardwood and can reduce the cutting capacity of the wood chipper);
