or if you have to remove processed material,
leaves or debris from the machine, always shut
down the engine, disconnect spark plug wires,
keeping them a away form the spark plugs to
prevent accidental starting, and wait for all
moving parts to come to a complete stop.
Do not tilt the machine while the engine is
running.
Always stop the engine before moving the
machine.
Always make sure that the engine is switched
off and that the cutting disk and engine are
at a complete standstill and the belt drive is
disengaged before opening the cutting disk
housing.
Keep combustible substances away from the
engine when it is hot.
Never cover the machine while the muffler is
still hot.

Foreign matter like soil, sand, grit, stones,
pieces of metal, etc will damage the sharp
edge of the cutting knives. Root balls and
dead wood will also blunt the blades quickly.
Avoid feeding any flax and cabbage tree
leaves into the machine as these stringy
materials can wrap around the rotor shaft and
work their way into the bearing.

into the machine, as they tend to bounce and
spin in the feed hopper. Feed these short
pieces together with longer pieces. After
becoming familiar with the machine, prune to
suit its capabilities.

Allow the machine to automatically feed
through.
Never operate the machine on slopes.

service technician may adjust parts that may
increase or decrease governed engine speed.

highways, roads, or thoroughfares.
Never operate this machine without feed
hopper or discharge chute properly attached
to the machine.
