Your Responsibilities

Know how to stop the engine quickly.

▲ Show others who will use this product how to use it safely. Allowing

anyone—especially children—to use this equipment without instruction

may cause serious injury. Please remember that this is a tool, not a toy.

▲ Wear long pants, protective footwear, and safety goggles. Hearing

Operator and Property Hazards

Check all fasteners for tightness before each use. Keep the engine’s air intake

is running or the rotor is turning.

▲ Keep all guards, deflectors and warning labels in place. Replace them

should they become cracked, broken or unreadable.

▲ Keep your face, hands, body, and clothing out of the hoppers, bag,

▲ Do not wear loose-fitting clothing or hanging jewelry.

Thrown Object Hazards

Clear the chipper and shredder hoppers before trying to start the engine.

▲ The collection bag must be installed by the operator before each use.

Do not start the engine until the bag is attached over the discharge chute.

▲ Inspect yard waste before processing. Make sure it is free of rocks,

glass, metal, and other non-organic objects.

▲ Work in daylight, so you can see objects, hazards, and bystanders.

Message to Parents

Poor judgement when using this

equipment may result in damage

and serious personal injuries. Help

prevent accidents by making

thoughtful decisions about

if, when,

and how older children will operate

this equipment.

Age is not the only factor.

1. Size, strength, and coordina-

tion. Each is required to start, push,

pull, and turn the equipment safely.

2. Maturity and responsibility.

Does the young person think through

problems and use good judgement?

3. Supervision. Make time to

talk through the manual and walk

through the operation of the machine.

Supervise the operation

of the machine the first few times.

Do all re-fueling and maintenance

yourself.

Put safety first. Take time to

instruct the young person. Even as

they gain confidence and a sense of

accomplishment with the machine,

continue to monitor their work.

Long-Term Storage

Store the chipper-shredder-vac out of

reach of children and where gasoline

vapors will not find an open flame or

spark. For extended storage periods

(such as over the winter months), add

a fuel stabilizer and let the engine run

briefly to allow the stabilizer to mix

with the fuel and get into the carbora-

tor and fuel lines. Let the engine to

cool before storing.

Change the oil and add fresh fuel

to return the unit to “active duty.”
