Assembling this YARD Chipper need as follows tools:
(1) L-wrench
(2) 13mm wrench
(3) screwdriver
Safety is a combination of common sense, staying alert, and knowing how to
use your yard chipper properly.
1. READ and become familiar with this entire instruction manual. LEARN the
tool’s applications, limitations, and possible hazards.
2. AVOID DANGEROUS CONDITIONS. DO NOT use power tools in wet or
damp areas or expose them to rain.
3. DO NOT use power tools in the presence of flammable liquids or gases.
4. KEEP BYSTANDERSAT A SAFE DISTANCE FROM the work area when
the tool is operating. NEVER allow children near the tool.
5. DO NOT FORCE THE TOOL to do a job for which it was not designed.
6. DRESS FOR SAFETY. DO NOT wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties, or
jewelry (rings, watches, etc.) when operating tool. Loose clothing can get
caught and pull you into moving parts.
7. ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION.
8. ALWAYS remove the power cord plug from the electric outlet when making
adjustments, changing parts, cleaning or working on the tool.
9. AVOIDACCIDENTAL START-UPS. Make sure the power switch is in the
OFF position before plugging in the power cord.
10. DO NOT abuse the power cord. Do not use it to carry the tool. Keep cord
away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or moving parts. Replace damaged cords
immediately; they may create a shock or fire hazard.
11. NEVER LEAVE A RUNNING TOOL UNATTENDED. Turn the power switch
to OFF. Do not leave the tool until it has come to a complete stop.

should be properly repaired or replaced before use.
GENERAL SAFETY RULES-CONTINUE
ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION.
A yard chipper can throw foreign objects into your eyes which could
cause permanent eye damage.
ALWAYS wear safety goggles (not glasses). Ordinary eyeglasses
have only impact-resistant lenses—they are
NOT safety goggles.
1. Be thoroughly familiar with the operation of the chipper before initial use.
2. NEVER put your hands into the hopper. Always use the push stick supplied
with your chipper to push items into the hopper.
3. DO NOT try to force objects that exceed the recommended diameter and
capacity of the chipper: 1-3/8 in. (35cm).
4. AVOID ACCIDENTAL START-UPS. Be sure switch is OFF when
plugging in.
5. DO NOT FORCE THE CHIPPER. It will do the job better and with less
likelihood of injury at the rate for which it was designed.
6. Before putting objects into the hopper, remove any stones, debris, or
objects that could damage the blades.
7. During operation, ensure that there are no other persons or animals within
a radius of 10 feet. Stop using the machine while people, especially
children, or pets, are nearby.
8. NEVER reach under the chipper until it has completely stopped. The
blade may continue to rotate for a time after being switched OFF.
9. MAKE all adjustments with the power OFF and the chipper disconnected
from the power source.
10. ALWAYS use accessories provided or recommended by the manufacturer.
Do not use substitutes.
11. KEEP guards in place and in working order. Keep blades sharp. Keep
hands and feet away from cutting areas.
5
NEVER REACH INTO THE HOPPER UNTIL THE
CHIPPER HAS COME TO A COMPLETE STOP AND IS
UNPLUGGED.
THE CHIPPER WILL CONTINUE TO ROTATE FOR A FEW
SECONDS
AFTER IT IS SWITCHED OFF.
NEVER PLACE HANDS INTO THE EJECTION CHUTE—A
SERIOUS INJURY WILL OCCUR.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES FOR YARD CHIPPERS
WARNING
WARNING
This yard chipper has a plug that looks like the one shown in Fig. A.
The yard chipperis double insulated to providea dual thickness of insulation
between you and the tool’s electrical system. All exposed metal parts are
insulated.
IN ALL CASES, MAKE CERTAIN THE RECEPTACLE IN
QUESTION IS PROPERLY GROUNDED. IF YOU ARE NOT SURE,
HAVE A CERTIFIED ELECTRICIAN CHECK THE RECEPTACLE.

ELECTRICAL INFORMATION
CAUTION
WARNING: TO AVOID ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARDS, FIRE HAZARDS,
OR DAMAGE TO THE TOOL, USE PROPER CIRCUIT PROTECTION.
YOUR CHIPPER IS WIRED AT THE FACTORY FOR 12OV OPERATION.
CONNECT TO 120 V, 15 A CIRCUIT AND USE A 15 A CIRCUIT BREAKER.
TO AVOID SHOCK OR FIRE WHEN THE POWER CORD IS WORN, CUT,
OR DAMAGED IN ANYWAY, REPLACE IT IMMEDIATELY.
DOUBLE INSULATED
WARNING：TO AVOID INJURY，WHEN SERVICING THE CHIPPER
USE ONLY IDENTICAL REPLACEMENT PARTS.1-800-444-6742
WARNING:DOUBLE INSULATION DOES NOT TAKE THE PLACE OF
NORMAL SAFETY PRECAUTION WHEN OPERATING THIS TOOL.
WARNING:TO AVOID ELECTRIC SHOCK:
1. Use only identical replacement parts when serving a tool with double
insulation. Servicing should be performed by a qualified technician.
2. Do not use in wet or damp or expose to rain.
GUIDELINES FOR USING EXTENSION CORDS
Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension
cord, be sure to use one of heavy enough gauge to carry the current your product
will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of
power and overheating. The table below shows the correct size to be used
according to cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next
heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
Minimum
Gauge for Extension Cords(AWG)
(when using 120 V only)
Be sure your extension cord is properly wired and in good condition. Always replace
a damaged extension cord or have it repaired by a qualified person before using it.
Keep your extension cords away from sharp objects, excessive heat and damp or
wet areas.
Use a separate electrical circuit for your tools. This circuit must not be less than
12 gauge cord and should be protected with a 15 amp time delayed fuse.
Before connecting the motor to the power line, make sure the switch is in the OFF
position and the electric current is rated the same as the current stamped on the
motor nameplate. Running at a lower voltage will damage the motor.
THIS TOOL MUST BE GROUNDED WHILE IN USE TO
PROTECT THE OPERATOR FROM ELECTRICAL SHOCK.
