Preparation
1. Thoroughly inspect the area where the chipper/shredder is to be
used. Remove all rocks, bottles, cans, or other foreign objects
which could be picked up or thrown and cause personal injury or
damage to the machine.
2. Avoid discharging chipped material out of the discharge chute
against a wall or on asphalt, concrete, or other hard surfaces as
material being ejected could ricochet, causing injury to you or
bystanders.
3. Always wear safety glasses or safety goggles to protect eyes
during operation or while performing an adjustment or repair.
4. Wear sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and closefitting pants and
shirts. Loose fitting clothing or jewelry can be caught in movable
parts. Wear leather work gloves when feeding material in the
chipper chute.
5. Before starting the engine, check bolts and screws for proper
tightness to be sure the machine is in safe working condition. Also,
visually inspect the chipper shredder at frequent intervals for any
damage.
6. Maintain or replace safety and instructions labels, as necessary.
7. To avoid personal injury or property damage use extreme care in
handling gasoline.

ignition.
c. Never fuel machine indoors.
d. Never remove gas cap or add fuel while the engine is hot or
running.

flame, spark, or pilot light (e.g., furnace, water heater, space
