instructions included in this manual and in
the machine before assembling and putting
it into operation. Keep this manual in a safe
place for future reference, as well as for
ordering spare parts.

5. Do not start the chipper in closed spaces
or in an area with poor ventilation. The

odorless.

each operation.
7. Don't put your hands close to the parts
that are in motion or inside the feed hopper
-as indicated in the decals - when in
operation. Be careful not to touch any
surface which is heated during the

guard is removed.
