come to a complete stop, and disconnect the spark plug wire before attempting to
free a jam or clog.
28. FEEDING MATERIAL: Hold branches and brush loosely, and allow the
chipper/shredder to draw the material in. The machine sometimes will draw material
in very quickly and your hand may be drawn in if you are holding tightly. If the blades
hit a hard object, or if the machine begins to make an unusual noise or vibration,
immediately shut the chipper/shredder OFF.
29. TURN OFF CHIPPER/SHREDDER: Turn OFF the machine, allow all moving parts to
come to a complete stop, and disconnect the spark plug wire before moving the
machine, emptying the bag, unclogging the inlets or outlets, filling the gas tank, or
performing maintenance and repairs.
30. STARTING THE CHIPPER/SHREDDER: Make sure the hopper and funnel are
empty when starting the machine. The pull start cord may stop suddenly causing the
chipper/shredder to fall over or injure your hand or arm.
31. CLEANING CHIPPER/SHREDDER: Allow the motor to cool off, then brush dust and
chip build-up off of the motor to prevent fire or motor overheating.
Like all machinery there is potential danger when operating this machine.

injury. If normal safety precautions are overlooked or ignored, serious personal
injury may occur.
No list of safety guidelines can be complete. Every environment is different.

Use this and other machinery with caution and respect. Failure to do so could
result in serious personal injury, damage to equipment, or poor work results.
