Turn engine off, remove ignition key and WAIT for drum to
come to a complete stop before attempting maintenance.
Never open chipper hood until drum comes to a complete stop.
SAFETY OPERATION
Brush and limbs should always be fed butt
end first.
At least two people should be on the job site
at all times. No one should ever operate the
chipper alone.
It is the operator's responsibility to ensure
that other workers or bystanders are kept
away from the path of discharged chips.
Be prepared in case of an accident. Always
have a first aid kit and fire extinguisher handy
at the job site.
Never attempt to unclog the chipper or per-
form any other type of maintenance when
the chipper is running.
Before performing any maintenance on the
chipper, always turn off the engine and re-
move the ignition key.
Also, keep in mind that the chipper drum will
coast for several minutes after the machine
is shut off. ALWAYS MAKE CERTAIN THE
DRUM HAS COME TO A COMPLETE STOP
BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY MAINTE-
NANCE.
Never open the chipper hood until you are
certain the drum has come to a complete
stop. NEVER, UNDER ANY CIRCUM-
STANCES, RUN THE CHIPPER WHEN THE
HOOD IS OPEN.
Always insert the
drum lock pin through the
access hole in the drum fan. This pin will hold
the drum in place while performing any knife
maintenance.
Use drum lock pin to hold drum in place.
