SAFETY OPERATION
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION!
For Owners and Operators of Morbark
Brush Chippers.
This Safety Manual has been prepared
for all owners and operators of Morbark
hand-fed brush and tree chippers.
SAFETY IS NO ACCIDENT.
Like all good things worth having proper
safety training and operating procedures
require effort, commitment, and concen-
tration every minute of every day.
Accidents don’t just happen. They are
caused by people who make mistakes.
We strongly encourage you to review
this information immediately with all
employees working with and around your
hand-fed brush chipper.
It is also imperative to review this infor-
mation with any new employees BE-
FORE they work with the chipper.
We urge you to review these safety
procedures with your employees on a
regular basis throughout the year. Safety
training is not a one-shot affair. It re-
quires your continuous commitment.
Over the life of the chipper, it is not
unusual to have as many as 20 or 30
different operators. Even though we are
aware of very few accidents, we are
concerned that some operators may not
receive all the proper training.
As a manufacturer, we design the safest
machine possible and make every effort
to protect the operator from harm.
For a safe and productive operation, follow the procedures discussed in this section. Safety
guidelines are written in bold print. All personnel must observe these guidelines when
working with the equipment.
