IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
Improper practices or carelessness can cause bodily injury or death.
Always instruct the operator in proper operating procedures. The operator must read and
understand all safety instructions in the Owner’s Operator’s Manual and those placed on
the 30/36 elevator.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1. Danger: Always check and make sure elevator’s operational site is a safe distance
from power lines.
2. Danger: Operational site should be level to prevent tipping of the unit during
operation.
3. Warning: All guards must be in place prior to starting the elevator or Wood Chuck.
4. Warning: Always check, making sure all personnel are clear of elevator prior to
starting engine.
5. Danger: The belts and WoodChuck may be started and stopped unexpectedly when the
engine is running. Keep all personnel clear of belts, WoodChuck fingers and moving
parts when the engine is running.
See page 7 item 2 for remote control information.
6. Danger: Stop belts and WoodChuck, and turn off engine prior to clearing material
from belts or Wood Chuck.
7. Warning: Turn off engine prior to tightening or adjusting belts (see page 17 for belt
adjustments).
