SAFETY BEFORE
STARTING THE ENGINE
1.
Become
familiar
with
this
Owner/OperatorManual before
attempting
to
operate
your
equipment.
2.
Know
where the engine Shut-OffTabislocated and
howtouse it. This tab-shaped control is next to the
spark plug on
top
of the engine.Tostop machine,
hold Tab against thespark plug until the engine has
stopped completely.
3.
The operation ofanypowered
machine can result in foreign
objects being
thrown
by high
speed rotating parts. Always
wearappropriatework gloves,
sturdy
footwear, and hearing
protection while using
your
equipment. Always
wear approved safety glasses
or
other eye protection when using theequipment. Do notwear loosefitting clothing, jewelry, scarves, ties, etc. that can
get caught in moving parts.
4.
The engine must be OFF and allowed to cool
for
several minutes beforefilling the fuel tank with gasoline. Use
only
an approved gas storage container.
Gasoline and its vapors are
highly
flammable and
explosive. Keep matches, flame, and smokers'
materials far away from fueling area. Fill fuel tank
outdoors. Wipe up fuel spills right away.
5.
Before starting the engine, make a visual check to
see
that all screws, nuts, bolts and other fasteners
are properlysecured. The Discharge Screen (orthe
Wet Material Baffle Attachment) must be in place
and properly secured. Disconnect the spark plug
2
wire before performing this check. This
check
is
recommended before each usage.
6.
Before starting the engine, be sure that the
chipper
chute, shredder
hopper
and internal
cutting
cham-
ber are empty and the service
doorissecurely
closed
with
a rod and hair pin.
The
engine must be
off, all parts completelystopped, and the spark plug
wire disconnected before you
do
this.
SAFETY DURING OPERATION

8.
Keep hands and feet
out
of
~'
dischargeopening when machine
is
running. Rotatingcutting blades inside opening
will cause serious personal
injUry.
9.Ifunit
jamsorbecomesclogged, push
Shut-Off
Tab
(on
topofengine) againstspark plug and holdthere
until all moving parts have
cometoacomplete stop.
Disconnect the spark plug wire.
Only
then inspect
the shredder
hopper
inlet, chipper chute inlet,
internal cutting chamber, discharge screen (orwet
material baffleattachment) and dischargearea. Use
only
a wooden sticktoclearaway jammed material
and discharged material.
10.
Do
not
run the engine in an enclosed area.
The
exhaust fumes from the engine contain extremely
dangerous carbon monoxide gas. It is colorless,
odorless, tasteless and deadly poisonous.
11.
Do
not
put
material thicker than W' in shredder
hopper. Failure
to
comply
may result in engine
damage.
12.
Do
not operate the
Chipper/Shredder
on a paved,
hard,
or
gravel surface. Discharged material
may
bounce from a hard surface and cause personal
injury. Select a level, earthen surface.
13. Always stand clear
of
the Discharge Area when
operating
your
equipment.
22. Do
not
transportormove
your
equipment
whilethe
engine is running.
23. Do
not
tamper with the governor setting on the
engine. The governor controls the maximum safe,
operating speed and protects the engine and other
moving parts from damage that can be caused
by
overspeeding.
24. Rotating cutting blades
do
not
stop until the
engine is off.
