Failure to heed any of these warnings may result in personal injury or death.
I) Operational Safety

Before operating this machinery read the owner’s manual thoroughly.

Do NOT operate this machine without proper training. It is the Owner’s responsibility to ensure all Oper-
ators are properly trained in the appropriate language.

Use OSHA approved eye, ear and head protection to protect the Operator from flying debris and noise.

Avoid wearing loose clothing as it can inadvertently be drawn into moving parts.

Never use drugs or alcohol before or during operation of this machine.

Only operate this machine when it is in good working order on an appropriate power unit that is in good
working order, and with all guards and safety devices in place and functioning.

Be aware of the machine’s weight and its effect on the stability of the power unit.

Always inspect area to be worked to ensure that the jobsite is free from obstacles and debris that could
injure the operator or damage the machine.

Avoid running the machine along the ground in rocky areas as this could create dangerous discharge.

Keep bystanders and children clear of the work area during operation as debris can be discharged in a
dangerous manner. The minimum safe distance from discharge is 300 ft.

Under no circumstances should the blades of this machine come into contact with the ground or should
the machine be curled in such a way that the blades become visible to the operator.

Avoid operation that would allow hydraulic lines to be pinched or severed. In the event of a hydraulic
leak, hydraulic fluid may have sufficient force to penetrate skin which requires immediate medical atten-
tion.

Be aware of the risks of equipment and grass fires. To mitigate those risks:
- Do not smoke or have an open flame in the work area.
- Do not operate in areas that have been freshly burned or are still burning.
- Do not allow clippings/debris to collect near hydraulic components or bearings.
- Avoid areas with high fire risk: dry grass, brush or trees.

Operation of this machine should be stopped immediately if the Operator’s vision becomes obscured by
the discharge of debris and dust. Also avoid operating this machine in unusually foggy or dusty condi-
tions or at night.

Keep away from the machine until all the energy has dissipated. This includes the complete stopping of
the drum’s rotation as well as the dissipation of pressure in the hydraulic lines.

In the event that a failure does occur during operation or if the machine begins to produce excessive
noise or vibration, shut the machine down immediately and repair before any continued use.
