Page 13: Safety Operation
Morbark has designed a very safe chipper, BUT IT CAN STILL As a manufacturer, we have done everything BE DANGEROUS! imaginable to design the safest machine possible to protect the operator from harm. - Page 14 These decals should never be removed. If they are worn or frayed, new decals should be ordered from your local Morbark Brush chipper dealer. Prior to starting the chipper each day, a pre-startup walk-around inspection should be performed. Check to make sure all bolts, nuts and belts are tight.
- Page 15 SAFETY OPERATION If the chipper is not hitched to a vehicle, wheel chocks should be placed under both wheels to keep the chipper from moving. Do not operate unit unless hitched to a tow vehicle or equipped with a rear support leg.
- Page 16 SAFETY OPERATION Again, the single most important chipper safety rule is: NEVER BREAK THE PLANE OF THE INFEED CHUTE WITH YOUR HANDS, AND NEVER, FOR ANY REASON, AT- TEMPT TO KICK BRUSH IN WITH YOUR FEET! To safely feed short material, always lay the short material on top of longer material that is feeding.
- Page 17 SAFETY OPERATION Brush and limbs should always be fed butt end first. At least two people should be on the job site at all times. No one should ever operate the chipper alone. It is the operator's responsibility to ensure that other workers or bystanders are kept away from the path of discharged chips.
- Page 18 SAFETY OPERATION When refueling the chipper, always be certain there is no open flame or source of a spark in the vicinity of the machine. Always remove the ignition key when the machine is left unattended for any reason. No one should ever operate the chipper when under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medications which could in any way affect the operator's per- formance and concentration.

Page 19: Safety Hints
SAFETY OPERATION As an owner or operator of a Morbark chipper, you know what a useful tool it is. With anti-burning and anti-burying regulations spreading across the coun- try, it is absolutely necessary that we have brush chippers to dispose of and recycle brush and wood waste. -
Page 20: New Engine Break-In
SAFETY OPERATION For a safe and productive operation, follow the procedures discussed in this section. All personnel must observe these guidelines when working with the equipment. NEW ENGINE BREAK-IN Proper break-in will lead to trouble free operation and increased engine life. The factory test given to a new engine is not sufficient to establish the polished bearing surfaces which are so necessary for good performance and long life. -
Page 21: Brush Preparation
SAFETY OPERATION BRUSH PREPARATION Inspection and organizing the brush prior to chipping will allow the job to be performed more efficiently and provide added safety in performing the job by minimizing the danger of foreign material, vines, etc. entering the chipper. Pre-trimming and proper de-limbing will allow the brush to be drawn easily through the chipper. Inspect all brush for all non-wood materials such as anything made of metal, glass or stone. - Page 22 SAFETY OPERATION BRUSH PREPARATION con’t Know the limitations of your chipper. Never attempt to feed material to large for your chipper. Always pre-cut large crotches to ensure adequate clearance through the transition area. When preparing large material for feeding the chipper, properly trimming the crotches will greatly reduce the amount of downtime clearing transition/feed roller jammed materials.
