9.6 Operating the machine
9.6.1 Before starting work
• Wear proper apparel, protective gloves and safety equipment as instructed in this manual
(“7.3 Safety regulations” on page 18).
• A good gardener is well organized and plans his work. This will enable you to have perfect
control to avoid accidents.
• The wood should be systematically stacked before commencing the work : thick branches, thin
branches, leaves and damp products. Ensure that the material does not contain any foreign
objects.
• Never run the machine in an enclosed area. If this is done, there is a danger of being poisoned
by the exhaust fumes from the engine.
• Always shred with the engine at full throttle..
• If the machine is set up in a working environment, the parking brake must be applied.
Warning:
Before the blade axle is activated, ensure that the blow chute is upright. Point
the blow chute and the deflector flaps in the desired direction.
