Additional Safety Instructions
for Chipper/Shredders
5. CLOTHING: DO NOT wear loose clothing,
neckties, scarves, or jewelry which may
get caught in moving parts. DO NOT wear
clothing or gloves with pull ties or straps.
This type of clothing could get tangled with
material that is being shredded, pulling you
into the chipper/shredder.
6. OPERATING LOCATION: Set up the chip-
per/shredder on firm, level, grass or dirt.
DO NOT set up the chipper/shredder on
gravel, asphalt, concrete, or stone. The
chips are expelled from the machine with
enough force to ricochet off of hard sur-
faces and cause serious injury. DO NOT
set up the chipper/shredder in a location
where sparks or heat from the motor could
cause a fire.
