10 DR ® 22-TON VERTICAL/HORIZONTAL WOOD SPLITTER
A Note to All Users
Under California law, and the laws of some other states, you are not permitted to operate an internal
combustion engine using hydrocarbon fuels without an engine spark arrester. This also applies to
operation on US Forest Lands. All DR 22-TON VERTICAL/HORIZONTAL WOOD SPLITTERS shipped to
California, New Mexico and Washington State are provided with spark arresters. Failure of the owner or
operator to maintain this equipment in compliance with state regulations is a misdemeanor under
California law and may be in violation of other state and/or federal regulations. Contact your local fire
marshal or forest service for specific information in your area.
• THE WOOD SPLITTER IS EQUIPPED WITH AN INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE AND SHOULD
NOT BE USED ON OR NEAR ANY UNIMPROVED FOREST-COVERED, BRUSH-COVERED, OR
GRASS COVERED LAND UNLESS THE ENGINE’S EXHAUST SYSTEM IS EQUIPPED WITH A SPARK
ARRESTER MEETING LOCAL OR STATE LAWS (IF ANY). IF A SPARK ARRESTER IS USED, IT
SHOULD BE MAINTAINED IN EFFECTIVE WORKING ORDER BY THE OWNER AND/OR
OPERATOR.
