• Children should not run this equipment.
• Stay alert of your surroundings and persons that could appear in the chip path while
you are working.
• Feed large diameter trees slowly into the cutting drum allowing the drum to regain
RPM and cutting speed between cuts.
Run all contents in the hopper through the machine before shutting the engine off to prevent loose
wood from lodging between blades and jamming the drum before you next running operation.
Remove small side cover with the two nuts and turn the drum counter-clockwise to free up wood
stuck in the blade.
