PRODUCT SPECIFIC SAFETY
THE CHIPPER SHREDDER HAS SPINNING BLADES THAT CAN AMPUTATE HANDS AND
FEET. DO NOT PLACE HANDS OR FEET IN THE HOPPER OR CHIPPER CONE, OR DIS-
CHARGE CHUTE.
THIS UNIT DISCHARGES DEBRIS AT HIGH SPEEDS. ALWAYS WEAR PROTECTIVE GOG-
GLES AND DO NOT OPERATE WITHOUT THE DEBRIS BAG IN PLACE.
Do not allow anyone in the area while the unit is running. If someone does enter the area, shut the unit off immedi-
ately until they leave. Organize the work area prior to starting work.
1. Do not operate without the debris bag in place because this unit discharges debris at high speeds. If the unit is
operated on hard ground, asphalt, concrete, or other hard surfaces without the collection bag in place. Material
can ricochet off of the hard surface and cause an unsafe condition for users and bystanders.
2. Never leave the machine running unattended. Always turn off the engine, wait for the rotor to come to a com-
plete stop, and disconnect the spark plug before leaving the area. Always move the unit to a safe storage area
when not in use.
3. Never direct discharge material toward anyone. Avoid discharging material against a wall or obstruction. Material
may ricochet back toward the operator.
4. Always stand to the side of the chipper cone when feeding tree limbs and branches into the unit, as tree limbs,
branches, and harder woods may kick back while being chipped.
5. Always keep hands out of the chipper cone and shredder hopper when feeding materials. Never wrap fingers
tightly around branches as you are feeding them into the unit, as a sudden inward surge could pull your hands
and arms into the unit.
6. Never allow material to build up in the discharge area or shredding chamber, as this may cause new material
being fed into the machine to kickback with sufficient force to injure you or other bystanders.
7. Never allow material to build up around the engine during chipper shredder operation. This could result in a fire,
or overheating of the engine.
8. Never attempt to reposition or move the chipper shredder unit while it is running. Doing so could cause the
machine to tip over, and reaching to steady the unit could result in accidental insertion of your hands into the
chipper cone or shredder hopper areas.
9. Never continue to operate the machine if it starts making unusual noise or vibration. Shut the engine off immedi-
ately, allow the rotor to stop, disconnect the spark plug wire and secure the wire away from the spark plug.
Inspect the unit for any signs of damage or foreign material in the chipping or shredding areas. Remove any
solid material that may be preventing the unit from operating properly.
10. Never attempt to clear clogs from the chipper cone, shredder hopper or discharge chute while the unit is
running. Always shut the engine off, allow the rotor to come to a complete stop, and remove the spark plug wire
from the spark plug before removing excess materials.
11. Never attempt to perform any maintenance, repairs, or attachment of accessories while the unit is running.
Always shut the unit off, allow the rotor to come to a complete stop, and remove the spark plug wire from the
spark plug before beginning these activities.
12. Always make sure that the shredding chamber, shredder hopper, and chipper cone are empty before starting
the unit after it has been idle. Attempting to start the unit with material in these areas could cause the engine
starting cord to stop suddenly, injuring your hand and fingers, or toppling the unit over. Vibration is generally
awarning sign of trouble.
13. Use only attachments and accessories approved of by the manufacturer of the machine.
14. Make sure chipper shredder is free of debris before starting the engine.
15. Never attempt to make any adjustments while the engine is running.
16. After striking a foreign object, stop the engine, remove spark plug wire, and wait for all moving parts to come to
a complete stop. Thoroughly inspect the machine for any damage, repair the damage before restarting and
operating the machine.
