OPERATION

Operating on hills

Be very careful when operating the stump grinder
on hills because the machine can slip or move
unexpectedly.

NEVER use the machine on grades of 10° or
steeper.

Transport

The Husqvarna stump grinder can be transported
in a truck, trailer, van or a large SUV (Sport Utility
Vehicle). The stump grinder is equipped with two
lifting handles on each side so that two people can
lift the machine if necessary.

DO NOT attempt to lift the machine alone. Use safe
lifting techniques and DO NOT exceed your
physical limitations.

Secure the machine with tensioning belts, chains
or other approved materials.
