Personal Safety
1. Before starting the wood c shredder, make sure
that the hopper inlet is empty.
2. Keep your face and body away from the opening.
3. Do not allow hands or any other part of the body or
clothing near the feeding funnel or discharge chute.
4. Never put your hands into the hopper while the wood
c shredder is running. Always use the paddle
supplied with your wood c shredder to push items
into the hopper.
5. Do not try to force objects larger than the recommended
diameter of 1.73 inch into the hopper.
6. Always stand clear of the discharge zone when operating
the wood c shredder. Never reach under the unit
until it has come to a complete stop.
7. When feeding material into the wood c shredder,
be careful to remove pieces of metal, rocks, bottles, cans
or other foreign objects that may damage the blades.
8. If the cutting mechanism strikes a foreign object or if the
wood c shredder should start making any unusual
noise or vibration, turn it off and allow it to come to a
complete stop. Disconnect from power supply and take
the following steps:
– Inspect for damage;
– Check for and tighten any loose parts.

WARNING!
Never reach into the hopper until the
wood c shredder has come to a complete stop and
is unplugged. The blades will continue to rotate for a few
seconds after the unit is turned off.
9. Do not allow processed material to build up in the
discharge zone; this may prevent proper discharge and
can result in kickback of material through the hopper.

WARNING!
Never put your hands near the ejection
slot. Failure to heed the warning could result in serious injury.
10. If the wood c shredder becomes clogged, turn it
OFF and disconnect from power supply before clearing
debris. Keep the power source clear of debris and other
accumulations to prevent damage to the power source.
Remember that the starting mechanism on engine
powered tools will cause the cutting mechanism to move.
11. Keep all guards and deflectors in place and in good
working condition.
12. Do not operate the wood c shredder on a paved
or gravel surface where ejected material could cause
injury.
13. Turn off the wood c shredder and disconnect it
from the power supply whenever you leave the work area.
14. Do not tilt the wood c shredder while it is running.
15. Never reach into the hopper until the wood c
shredder has come to a complete stop and has been
disconnected from the power supply.
Electric Safety
1. Ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) protection should
be provided on the circuit(s) or outlet(s) to be used for
this electric wood c shredder. Receptacles are
available having built-in GFCI protection and may be used
for this measure of safety.
2. To prevent electric shock, use only with an extension cord
suitable for outdoor use, such as SW-A, SOW-A, STW-A,
STOW-A, SJW-A, SJOW-A, SJTW-A, or SJTOW-A.
Before use, check that the extension cord is in good
condition. When using an extension cord, make sure to
use one heavy enough to carry the current to the product.
For lengths up to 50 ft (15 m), a No. 14 AWG (or greater)
extension cord must be used. For lengths more than
50 ft (15 m) and up to 100 ft (30 m), a No. 12 AWG
(or greater) extension cord must be used. An undersized
cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of
power and overheating.
