6. Operating Instructions
The operator is responsible to be familiar with and obey all
operating and safety procedures.
Read and understand all
the safety information in this manual before you operate the
machine.
6.1 Operating Safety
WARNING!
Wear the personal protective equipment (PPE)
that is necessary to do the work safetly.
This includes, but is not limited to, a hard hat,
hearing protection, a face shield, protective
footwear, a respirator, and heavy gloves.
W101
WARNING!
Stay away from the discharge chute and the area
where the discharge chute is pointed. Do not
point the discharge chute at people, animals,
or structures. The machine releases wood
chips fast enough to cause personal injury and
property damage.
W062
WARNING!
Do not reach into the chipper hopper. There are
sharp knives that can trap, cut, and/or sever your
fi ngers or hand. Use a stick or branch to pull
material that does not move out of the discharge
chute.
If there is a blockage, set the machine to a safe
condition, and then remove the material.
W004
WARNING!
Always use the machine outdoors and park
the machine in a position where the prevailing
winds blow the engine exhaust away from the
operator. Exhaust from the engine contains
carbon monoxide (CO) that can accumulate to a
dangerous level, even in an area with good air
fl ow.
W006
IMPORTANT! Do not put metal objects, bottles, cans, rocks,
glass, or other unapproved material into the machine. These
items will damage the machine.
If these items get into the machine, set the machine to
a safe condition before you remove them. Examine the
machine for damage and loose parts.
• Read and understand this manual before you start the
machine. Review all safety information annually.
• Park the machine in a clear location on dry, level ground.
Do not operate the machine on a hillside or area that is
cluttered, wet, muddy, or icy to prevent slips, trips, and
falls.
For more information, see
Work Site on page 11.
• Keep the work area clean and free of debris.
• Only operate the engine in a location that has good air
flow. Engine exhaust gases contain carbon monoxide (an
odorless gas) that can cause asphyxiation.
• Attach all guards and shields, and close all covers before
you start the machine.
• Do not move or transport the machine when the engine is
on.
• Stop the engine before you leave the machine unattended.
• Cut large, curved branches into smaller, straighter sections.
Some branches and brush move unpredictable directions
when they enter the chipper hopper. Move away from the
chipper hopper after you put material into the machine.
• Do not stand, sit, or climb on any part of the machine,
especially while the engine is on.
• Do not operate the machine alone. Always have a minimum
of two trained people:
• There should be one operator and one spotter present
during machine operation. The operator and spotter
must know all the machine safety, controls, and
operating functions.
• The operator must be in control of the machine at all
times. The spotter must stay outside of the hazard zone
while the machine is operating.
• Keep bystanders a minimum of 20 ft (6 m) from the
machine and wood chip release area. Mark the safe zone
with safety cones.
• Do not reach into the chipper hopper. Keep your feet on the
ground and make sure that you are stable when you put
material into the chipper hopper.
• Keep your hands, feet, clothing, and long hair away from
the chipper hopper. The chipper hopper can entangle
hands, feet, clothing, and long hair, causing serious injury
or death.
