CAUTION! TOWING SAFETY
• Check all local and state regulations regarding towing, licensing, and lights before
towing your equipment.
• Check before towing to make sure that the equipment is correctly and securely attached
to the towing vehicle.
• Do not carry any cargo or wood on the equipment.
• Do not allow anyone to sit or ride on the equipment.
• Disconnect the equipment from the towing vehicle before operating it.
• Use care when backing up with the equipment in tow to avoid jack-knifing. Allow for
added length of the equipment when turning, parking, crossing intersections and in all
driving situations.
• Do not exceed 15 mph (24 km/h) when towing your equipment. Towing the equipment
at speeds higher than 15 mph (24 km/h) could result in loss of control, damage to the
equipment, serious injury or death. Adjust towing speed for terrain and conditions. Be
extra cautious when towing over rough terrain.
WARNING! PROPER MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
• Keep machine, attachments and accessories in safe working condition.
• Check engine mounting bolts and other hardware before each use for proper tightness.
Never operate your chipper in poor mechanical condition or when in need of repair. Be
sure all safety guards and shields are in proper position. These safety devices are for
your protection.
• Never store the equipment with fuel in the fuel tank inside a building where ignition
sources are present, such as hot water and space heaters, clothes dryers and the like.
Allow the engine to cool before storing in any enclosure.
• If the fuel tank is to be drained, do this outdoors.
• If it is necessary for any reason to unclog the feed chute or discharge openings or to
inspect or repair the equipment where a moving part can come in contact with your
body or clothing, shut the machine off, allow all moving parts to come to a complete
stop, disconnect the spark plug wire(s) and allow the engine to cool before attempting
to unclog, inspect or repair.
• Check the blade mounting screws before each use for proper tightness. Also visually
inspect the blade for wear and damage. Replace the blade with parts that meet original
equipment specifications.
• Blades should be checked for sharpness and the bolts attaching them to the flywheel
for tightness before each operation.
• Replace the nylock nuts securing the blade every time you replace the blade.
• Check the gap between the blade and wear plate every time you replace the blade.
• Never tamper with safety devices. Check their proper operation regularly.
• Inspect the belt each time you use the equipment. Look for damage, worn areas or
tears. Do not use the unit if this condition exists.
WARNING! CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65: Engine exhaust, some of its constituents and
certain product components contain or emit chemicals known to the State of California to
