4.8.9 SAFETY CURTAINS:
Each feed hopper is designed with an internal
rubber/belting curtain to prevent chips and de-
bris from coming out of the hopper when work-
ing. Check the condition of the curtain each
day prior to starting. Replace the curtain if torn,
damaged or missing to minimize the chance of
material coming out of the feed hopper.
4.8.10 OPERATING HINTS:
a. Keep the working area clean and free of
debris to prevent slipping or tripping. Operate
only on level ground.
b. Do not place hands or any body parts into the
feed hopper during operation. Use a stick or
branch to push material into the rotor when it
goes past the curtain in the feed hopper.
c. Do not point discharge at people, animals or
buildings. Rotor can expel wood chips fast
enough to cause injury.
d. Use care when feeding material into the chip-
per. Do not send metal, bottles, cans, rocks,
glass or other foreign material into the wood
chipper. If foreign material enters chipper,
stop machine, turn engine off and place igni-
tion key in your pocket and wait for all moving
parts to stop before removing material and/or
unplugging. Inspect machine for damaged or
loose parts before resuming work.
