USE COMMON SENSE WHEN USING YOUR SHREDDER/CHIPPER.
• LEARN TO RECOGNIZE THE CHANGE IN THE SOUND OF YOUR MACHINE
WHEN IT IS OVERLOADED.
• BECOME FAMILIAR WITH SUCCESSFUL OPERATING CONDITIONS AND
AVOID THOSE THAT CAN OVERLOAD AND DAMAGE THE MACHINE.
• IF THE MACHINE BECOMES JAMMED BY OVERLOADING OR ANY OTHER
CAUSE, STOP THE MACHINE IMMEDIATELY.
• IF YOU JAM THE MACHINE AND DO NOT STOP THE ENGINE, IT CAN DAMAGE
THE MACHINE. THIS DAMAGE CAN BE COSTLY AND IT MAY NOT BE COVERED
UNDER WARRANTY. FOR THIS REASON, IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU
IMMEDIATELY STOP THE ENGINE IF THE MACHINE BECOMES JAMMED.
• ONLY YOUR OPERATOR EXPERIENCE WILL TELL YOU HOW FAST TO FEED
MATERIAL TO BE PROCESSED.
• CHECK TO SEE THAT THE FLYWHEEL WILL TURN FREELY BEFORE YOU START
THE SHREDDER/CHIPPER.
• VISUALLY CHECK CHIPPER KNIFE FOR DAMAGE EACH TIME YOU USE YOUR
SHREDDER/CHIPPER.
• CHECK KNIFE CONDITION, WEAR PLATE CONDITION, GAP SETTING AND THE
NUTS AND BOLTS THAT HOLD THE KNIFE IN PLACE FOR TIGHTNESS EVERY
8-10 HOURS OF OPERATION.
• DO NOT ALLOW PROCESSED MATERIAL TO BUILD UP WITHIN 3” OF
DISCHARGE CHUTE OPENING. MOVE SHREDDER/CHIPPER OR PILE AS
NEEDED. FAILURE TO DO THIS COULD RESULT IN UNNECESSARY JAMMING OF
THE MACHINE.
• TO MOVE PILE OF PROCESSED MATERIAL, USE SPADE, RAKE, OR LONG
HANDLE TOOL. NEVER USE YOUR HANDS OR FEET!
