The operation of any chipper-shredder can result in foreign objects being thrown into the eyes, which can
result in severe eye damage. Always wear the safety glasses provided with the chipper-shredder or eye
shields before chipping or shredding, or while performing any adjustments or repairs. We recommend
Wide Vision Safety Mask for over spectacles or standard glasses available at Sears Retail or Catalog
Stores.
