WARNING
TO AVOID MISTAKES THAT COULD CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY, DO NOT PLUG IN THE CHIPPER
UNTIL THE FOLLOWING STEPS HAVE BEEN READ THOROUGHLY.
• Avoid Dangerous Environment – Don't use appliances in damp or wet locations.
• Don't Use In Rain.
• Keep Children Away – All visitors should be kept at a distance from work area.
• Dress Properly – Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. They can be caught in moving parts.
Use of rubber gloves and substantial footwear is recommended when working outdoors. Wear
protective hair covering to contain long hair.
• Use Safety Glasses – Always use face or dust mask if operation is dusty.
• Use Right Appliance – Do not use appliance for any job except that for which it is intended.
• Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protection should be provided on the circuit(s) or outlet(s)
to be used for the gardening appliance. Receptacles are available having built-in GFCI protection
and may be used for this measure of safety.
• Warning – To reduce the risk of electric shock, use only with an extension cord intended for outdoor
use, such as an extension cord of cord type SW-A, SOW-A,STW-A, STOW-A, SJW-A, SJOW-A,
SJTW-A. or SJTOW-A.
• Extension Cord – Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension
cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized
extension cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. If in
doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the heavier the cord. To reduce
the risk of disconnection of appliance cord from the extension cord during operating:
i) Make a knot; or
ii) Use one of the plug-receptacle retaining straps or connectors described in this manual.
• Avoid Unintentional Starting – Don't carry plugged-in appliance with finger on switch.
Be sure switch is off when plugging in.
• Don't Abuse Cord – Never carry appliance by cord or yank it to disconnect from receptacle.
Keep cord from heat, oil, and sharp edges.
• Don't Force Appliance – It will do the job better and with less likelihood of a risk of injury at the rate
for which it was designed.
• Don't Overreach – Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
