OWNER’S MANUAL – ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS CONGRATULATIONS! You are now the proud owner of the BARRETO stump grinder. The OPERATOR’S MANUAL is attached to the machine. Please study it and this manual to become familiar with the stump grinder, its characteristics, and method of operation. Pay particular attention to the safety and operating instructions to prevent personal injury or equipment damage.
Damage resulting from this will void your engine warranty and not be covered. IMPORTANT - The engine on the Barreto stump grinder may or may not have been serviced prior to shipping. Shipping regulations may prohibit shipping with fuel or oil in the engine. Check levels and add oil and fuel as required before starting engine.
Your DGI® hour meter is pre-set at the DGI® factory to go into Flash Alert mode at 25-hour intervals. Although the engine manufacturer does not require changing engine oil this often, due to heavy-duty use and extreme conditions inherent to tiller use, Barreto Manufacturing strongly recommends frequent oil changes.
STUMP GRINDER INTENDED USE The Barreto Stump Grinder is designed to remove in-ground tree stumps and exposed roots. It should not be used to cut any material other than wood stumps and the surface soil around the stumps or exposed roots.
Barreto Manufacturing, Inc. warrants all BARRETO equipment to be free of defects in material and workmanship for a period of one (1) year. All BARRETO fuel components, fuel tank, cap, lines & fittings are warranted for two (2) years. Warranty period begins on date of delivery to the original user.
