Sounds defective. Even if you could fix this problem something else is bound to go wrong. Troy-Bilt has a reputation for quality products and I'd suggest, since it's brand new, you get it replaced.

THE CHIIPER PRODUCT IN NOW OWNED BY MURRAY. PART NUMBER FOR LEAF TAMPER IS 1763008. ORDER FROM ANY POWER EQUIPMENT DEALER THAT ORDERS MURRAY PARTS.

Hi,

Read the Solution offered Directly from one of the People who removed the same :-

To get the impeller assembly off, I took a sacrificial bolt and replaced the bolt used to hold the impeller assembly on to the shaft. I borrowed a very large wheel puller from a friend and got the assembly off.

You can buy the parts from buymtdonline.com. If the impeller assy has self-destructed like mine did you will probably most likely have to replace the screen as well.

Let me know, if needed further assistance.

Hope i helped you.

Thanks for using ' Fixya ' and have a nice day!!

You are most likely close to starting it if you do not have a really gummed up carberator which, if that is the case, it will not start until you disassemble the carb. and soak all of the parts. that said, get a can of starter fluid and a helper. remove the air filter. one person squirts a little starter fluid into the air intake and the other pulls the rope. Make sure you begin by choking it fully and then once it turns over one time back the choke off one knotch, repeat with the spray and another pull and moving the choke til it takes off. you may have to keep it running on starter fluid until the carb. cleans itself.

If this does not start it, the next step is to remove the carb. and disassemble and clean it. Joe

If it is a gas powered system it will have a choke. It could be some sort of automatic configuration without a lever for the end user to adjust however so we'll start with the basics. All engines need fuel, air, and spark to run. Since you know that you ran out of fuel try cycling the engine without starting to get some fuel into the system. You can do this a couple ways but the easiest would be to disconnect the spark plug pull the string start or turn the key a couple times. While your at it you may want to pull out the spark plug and see if the point is fouled. A little WD-40 and some fine grit sandpaper will clean it up pretty easily.

You can also check the air filter / exhaust. the usually have some foam type insert in or around. if it looks melted and not spongy you'll wnat to replace it.

I have had a similar problem with my lawnmower and although they are not the same machine, the principals behind the engine operation are.

Let me know if you are able to get it running.

hi yes you can. when you take the back off you can reach the cuttingwheel and clean everything. after that its ready to use again.

go to ordertree.com and put in your part number. it is available but pricey.

is all I could find,They're only parts breakdowns.

The blade(s) should have usually two bolts on them depending how many blades you have. Mine only has one blade held on with two bolts and that is only on the side that cuts the larger branches up to two inches in diameter and should be sharpened on a grinding wheel because it has a specific angle to it. The other side that chips smaller branches and twigs it a type of flailer, meaning pieces of metal just swinging around to mash up the sticks and do not need sharpening.

need to do a full engine tune up with carb rebuild, the old stale fuel has gummed up the fuel system, sitting up is the worst thing you can do to an engine. there is nothing you can pour in the fuel tank to clean the carburetor, it must be dissasembled and cleaned. as for the timing, the gap is aprox 10,000 of an inch or .010 a business card works great or an old drivers license works good for engines that have worn mag bearings hope this helps good luck!

check with you local service center that handles tecumseh parts. I can get it thy should be Abel too. your new number is 36221

try changing spark plug, if unit sits outside rain can rust the coil but I would try a new spark plug first and make sure it;s gaped correctly

As there is a model number on the chipper there should be a model number on the engine. You may have to stand on your head to find it but, it's there.

The manual can be found HERE.
On the left side of the page, under "Browse Subcomponents" you can use your RIGHT mouse button to open each page in a seperate window. This reduces the use of your BACK button, and personally, I find it more convenient.

Hope this helps.
