As with any type of power equipment, carelessness or error on the part of the operator can result in serious injury. This machine is capable of amputating fingers, hands, toes and feet and throwing debris. Failure to observe the following safety instructions could result in serious injury or death.
Training
1.Read, understand, and follow all instructions on the machine and in the manual(s) before attempting to assemble and operate. Keep this manual in a safe place for future and regular reference and for ordering replacement parts.
2.Be familiar with all controls and their proper operation. Know how to stop the machine and disengage them quickly.

5.Keep bystanders, pets, and children at least 75 feet from the machine while it is in operation. Stop machine if anyone enters the area.
6.Never run an engine indoors or in a poorly ventilated area. Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, an odorless and deadly gas.
7.Do not put hands and feet near rotating parts or in the feeding chambers and discharge opening. Contact with the rotating impeller can amputate fingers, hands, and feet.
8.Never attempt to unclog either the feed intake or discharge opening, remove or empty bag, or inspect and repair the machine while the engine is running. Shut the engine off and wait until all moving parts have come to a complete stop. Disconnect the spark plug wire and ground it against the engine.

Safe Handling of Gasoline:
To avoid personal injury or property damage use extreme care in handling gasoline. Gasoline is extremely flammable and the vapors are explosive. Serious personal injury can occur when gasoline is spilled on yourself or your clothes which can ignite. Wash your skin and change clothes immediately.
a.Use only an approved gasoline container.
b.Never fill containers inside a vehicle or on a truck or trailer bed with a plastic liner. Always place containers on the ground away from your vehicle before filling.
c.When practical, remove gas-powered equipment from the truck or trailer and refuel it on the ground. If this is not possible, then refuel such equipment on a trailer with a portable container, rather than from a gasoline dispenser nozzle.
d.Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel tank or container opening at all times until fueling is complete. Do not use a nozzle lock-open device.
e.Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes and other sources of ignition.
f.Never fuel machine indoors.
g.Never remove gas cap or add fuel while the engine is hot or running. Allow engine to cool at least two minutes before refueling.
h.Never over fill fuel tank. Fill tank to no more than ½ inch below bottom of filler neck to allow space for fuel expansion.
i.Replace gasoline cap and tighten securely.
j.If gasoline is spilled, wipe it off the engine and equipment. Move unit to another area. Wait 5 minutes before starting the engine.
k.To reduce fire hazards, keep machine free of grass, leaves, or other debris build-up. Clean up oil or fuel spillage and remove any fuel soaked debris.
l.Never store the machine or fuel container inside where there is an open flame, spark or pilot light as on a water heater, space heater, furnace, clothes dryer or other gas appliances.
Operation
1.Do not put hands and feet near rotating parts or in the feeding chambers and discharge opening. Contact with the rotating impeller can amputate fingers, hands, and feet.
2.Before starting the machine, make sure the chipper chute, feed intake, and cutting chamber are empty and free of all debris.
3.Thoroughly inspect all material to be shredded and remove any metal, rocks, bottles, cans, or other foreign objects which could cause personal injury or damage to the machine.
4.If it becomes necessary to push material through the shredder hopper, use a small diameter stick. Do not use your hands or feet.
5.If the impeller strikes a foreign object or if your machine should start making an unusual noise or vibration, immediately shut the engine off. Allow the impeller to come to a complete stop. Disconnect the spark plug wire, ground it against the engine and perform the following steps:
a.Inspect for damage.
b.Repair or replace any damaged parts.
c.Check for any loose parts and tighten to assure continued safe operation.
6.Do not allow an accumulation of processed material to build up in the discharge area. This can prevent proper discharge and result in kickback of material through the feed opening.
7.Do not attempt to shred or chip material larger than specified on the machine or in this manual. Personal injury or machine damage could result.
8.Never attempt to unclog either the feed intake or discharge opening while the engine is running. Shut the engine off, wait until all moving parts have stopped, disconnect the spark plug wire and ground it against the engine before clearing debris.
9.Never operate without the shredder hopper, chipper chute, or chute deflector properly attached to the machine. Never empty or change discharge bag while the engine is running.
10.Keep all guards, deflectors and safety devices in place and operating properly.
11.Keep your face and body back and to the side of the chipper chute while feeding material into the machine to avoid accidental kickback injuries.
12.Never operate this machine without good visibility or light.
13.Do not operate this machine on a paved, gravel or nonlevel surface.
14.Do not operate this machine while under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
15.Muffler and engine become hot and can cause a burn. Do not touch.
16.Never pick up or carry machine while the engine is running.
17.If situations occur which are not covered in this manual, use care and good judgement. Contact Customer Support for assistance and the name of the nearest service dealer.
