SAFETY
Do not operate this machine until this manual has been read and fully understood; serious
injury or severe machine damage can occur if these safety warnings are ignored.
Never allow more than one person to operate this machine at one time. If two people are
working together it will increase the chance of your workmate engaging the machine or

pulled into the machine.

the chipper.
Never place your hands beyond the opening of the hopper while the chipper is running.
