SAFETY
YOU are responsible for the SAFE operation and maintenance of your Wallenstein 3 Point Hitch Wood
Chipper. YOU must ensure that you and anyone else who is going to use, maintain or work around the 3
Point Hitch Wood Chipper be familiar with the operating and maintenance procedures and related SAFETY
information contained in this manual. This manual will take you step-by-step through your working day and
alerts you to all good safety practices that should be used while using the 3 Point Hitch Wood Chipper.
Remember, YOU are the key to safety. Good safety practices not only protect you but also the people around
you. Make these practices a working part of your safety program. Be certain that EVERYONE using this
equipment is familiar with the recommended operating and maintenance procedures and follows all the safety
precautions. Most accidents can be prevented. Do not risk injury or death by ignoring good safety practices.
2�1 SAFETY DO'S & DON'TS
• DO give operating instructions to operators or
employees before allowing them to operate the
machine, and REVIEW annually thereafter.
• DO read and understand ALL Safety and
Operating instructions in the
manual and follow them. Most
accidents can be avoided. The
most important safety device
on this equipment is a SAFE
operator.
• DO review safety related items annually with all
personnel who will be operating
or maintaining the chipper
• DO have a rst-aid kit available
for use should the need arise
and know how to use it.
• DO read and understand all safety signs located
on the machine before operating,
maintaining, adjusting or cleaning the
wood chipper.
• DO have a re extinguisher available

2�2 EQUIPMENT SAFETY GUIDELINES
1. Safety of the operator and bystanders is one of
the main concerns in designing and developing
equipment. However, every year many accidents
occur which could have been avoided by a few
seconds of thought and a more careful approach
to handling equipment. You, the operator, can
avoid many accidents by observing the following
precautions in this section. To avoid personal
injury or death, study the following precautions
and insist those working with you, or for you to
follow them.
2. In order to provide a better view, certain
photographs or illustrations in this manual may
show an assembly with a safety shield removed.
However, equipment should never be used in
this condition. Keep all shields in place. If shield
removal becomes necessary for repairs, replace
the shield prior to use.
3. Replace any safety sign or instruction sign that
is not readable or is missing. Location of such
safety signs is indicated in this manual.
4. Never use alcoholic beverages or drugs which
can hinder alertness or coordination while using
this equipment. Consult your doctor about
using this machine while taking prescription
medications.
5� Under no circumstances should young
children be allowed to work with this
equipment� Do not allow persons to use
or assemble this unit until they have read
this manual and have developed a thorough
understanding of the safety precautions and
of how it works� Review the safety instructions
with all users annually.
6. This equipment is dangerous to children and
persons unfamiliar with its operation. The
operator should be a responsible, properly
trained and physically able person familiar
with machinery and trained in this equipment's
operations. If the elderly are assisting with work,
their physical limitations need to be recognized
and accommodated.
7. Never exceed the limits of a piece of machinery.
If its ability to do a job, or to do so safely, is in
question - DON'T TRY IT�
8. Do not modify the equipment in any way.
Unauthorized modication may result in serious
injury or death and may impair the function and
life of the equipment.
9. In addition to the design and conguration of
this implement, including Safety Signs and
Safety Equipment, hazard control and accident
prevention are dependent upon the awareness,
concern, prudence, and proper training of
personnel involved in the operation, transport,
maintenance, and storage of the machine.
Refer also to Safety Messages and operation
instruction in each of the appropriate sections
of the tractor and machine manuals. Pay close
attention to the Safety Signs afxed to the tractor
and the machine.
10. Safe Condition involves the following procedure:
• disengage the PTO
• shut off the engine
• ensure all components have stopped moving
• remove and pocket the ignition key
• block & chock the tractor wheels
• and set rotor lock if required.
Safe Condition procedure should be performed
before any service, maintenance work or storage
preparation.

2�3 SAFETY TRAINING
1. Safety is a primary concern in the design and
manufacture of our products. Unfortunately, our
efforts to provide safe equipment can be wiped
out by a single careless act of an operator or
bystander.
2. In addition to the design and conguration
of equipment, hazard control and accident
prevention are dependent upon the awareness,
concern, prudence and proper training of
personnel involved in the operation, transport,
maintenance and storage of this equipment.
3. It has been said, "The best safety feature is
an informed, careful operator." We ask you to be that
kind of an operator. It is the
operator's responsibility to
read and understand ALL
Safety and Using instructions in the manual
and to follow these. Accidents can be avoided.
4� Working with unfamiliar equipment can
lead to careless injuries� Read this manual
before assembly or using, to acquaint
yourself with the machine� If this machine
is used by any person other than yourself,
or is loaned or rented, it is the machine
owner's responsibility to make certain that
the operator, prior to using:
• Reads and understands the operator's
manuals�
• Is instructed in safe and proper use of
the equipment�
• Understands and knows how to perform
the "Safe Condition" procedure:
• disengage the PTO
• shut off the engine
• ensure all components have stopped moving
• remove and pocket the ignition key
• block & chock the wheels
• set rotor lock if required
5. Train all new personnel and review instructions
frequently with existing workers. Be certain only
a properly trained and physically able person will
use the machinery. A person who has not read
and understood all using and safety instructions
is not qualied to use the machine. An untrained
operator exposes himself and bystanders to
possible serious injury or death. If the elderly are
assisting with the work, their physical limitations
need to be recognized and accommodated.
6. Know your controls and how to stop tractor and
machine quickly in an emergency. Read this
manual and the one provided with tractor.
2�4 PREPARATION
1. Never use the machine until you have read and
completely understand this manual, the tractor
Operator's Manual and each of the Safety
Messages found on the safety signs on the
tractor and machine.
2. Personal
protection
equipment
including hard
hat, safety
glasses, safety
shoes, and
gloves are
recommended
during assembly, installation, operation,
adjustment, maintaining, repairing, removal,
cleaning, or moving the unit. Do not allow
long hair, loose tting clothing or jewellery to
be around equipment.
3� PROLONGED EXPOSURE TO LOUD NOISE
MAY CAUSE PERMANENT
HEARING LOSS!
Power equipment with or
without equipment attached
can often be noisy enough to
cause permanent or partial
hearing loss. We recommend
that you wear hearing
protection on a full-time basis if the noise
in the Operator's position exceeds 80db.
Noise over 85db on a long-term basis can
cause severe hearing loss. Noise over 90db
adjacent to the Operator over a long-term
basis may cause permanent, total hearing
loss. NOTE: Hearing loss from loud noise
(from tractors, chain saws, radios, and other
such sources close to the ear) is cumulative
over a lifetime without hope of natural
recovery.
4. Clear working area of stones, branches or hidden
obstacles that might be hooked or snagged,
causing injury or damage.
5. Use only in daylight or good articial light.
6. Be sure machine is properly mounted, adjusted
and in good operating condition.
7. Ensure that all safety shielding and safety signs
are properly installed and in good condition.
10

They are there for your safety, as well as the
safety of others. The safe use of this machine
is strictly up to you, the operator.
2. All things with moving parts are potentially
hazardous. There is no substitute for a cautious,
safe-minded operator who recognizes potential
hazards and follows reasonable safety practices.
The manufacturer has designed this 3 Point
