Safe operating practices
Training
Become familiar with the owner's manual before attempting to operate this equipment.
Preparation
1) Do not allow children to operate this equipment;
2) Do not operate this equipment in the vicinity of bystanders;
3) Do not run engine powered machines in an enclosed area since the exhaust from an engine
contains carbon monoxide, which is colourless, odourless, and tasteless; carbon monoxide can be
extremely dangerous in enclosed areas;
4) Wear ear protection and safety glasses at all times while operating the machine;
5) Avoid wearing clothing that is loose fitting or that has hanging cords or ties;
6) Only operate the machine in open space (e.g. not close to a wall or other fixed object) and on a
firm, level surface;
7) Do not operate the machine on a paved or gravel surface where ejected material could cause
injury;
8) Before starting the machine, check that all screws, nuts, bolts, and other fasteners are properly
secured and that guards and screens are in place. Replace damaged or unreadable labels;
9) Use extra care in handling fuels. They are flammable and the vapours are explosive. The following
points should be observed:
use only an approved container;
Never remove the fuel cap or add fuel with the power source running. Allow engine and exhaust
components to cool before refuelling;
do not smoke;
never refuel the machine indoors;
never store the machine or fuel container inside where there is an open flame, such as a water
heater;
if fuel is spilled, do not attempt to start the power source, but move the machine away from the
area of spillage before starting;
always replace and securely tighten the fuel cap after refuelling;
If the fuel tank is drained, this should be done outdoors.
Operation
1) Before starting the machine, look into the feeding chamber to make certain that it is empty;
2) Keep your face and body away from the feed intake opening;
3) Do not allow hands or any other part of the body or clothing inside the feeding chamber, discharge
chute, or near any moving part;
4) Keep proper balance and footing at all times. Do not overreach. Never stand at a higher level than
the base of the machine when feeding material into it;
5) Always stand clear of the discharge zone when operating this machine;
6) When feeding material into the machine be extremely careful that pieces of metal, rocks, bottles,
cans or other foreign objects are not included;
7) If the cutting mechanism strikes any foreign objects or if the machine should start making any
unusual noise or vibration, shut off the power source and allow the machine to stop. Disconnect the
spark plug wire from the spark plug (electric unit disconnect from supply) and take the following
steps:
inspect for damage;
check for and tighten any loose parts ;
Have any damaged parts replaced or repaired with parts having equivalent specifications.
8) Do not allow processed material to build up in the discharge zone; this may prevent proper
discharge and can result in kickback of material through the feed intake opening;
9) If the machine becomes clogged at the inlet opening or discharge chute shut-off the power source
and disconnect the spark plug wire or remove the ignition key before clearing debris in the inlet
opening or discharge chute. Keep the power source clear of debris and other accumulations to
prevent damage to the power source or possible fire. Remember that operating the starting
mechanism on engine powered machines will still cause the cutting means to move;
10) keep all guards and deflectors in place and in good working condition;
11) Do not tamper with the power source governor settings; the governor controls the safe maximum

3
operating speed and protects the power source and all moving parts from damage caused by over-
speed. Seek authorised service if a problem exists;
12) Do not transport this machine while the power source is running;
13) Shut off the power source and disconnect the spark plug lead (electric unit disconnect from
supply) whenever you leave the work area;
14) Do not tilt the machine while the power source is running.
Mandedintenance and storage
a) When the machine is stopped for servicing, inspection, or storage, or to change an accessory,
shut off the power source, disconnect the spark plug wire from the spark plug, make sure that all
moving parts have come to a complete stop and, where a key is fitted remove the key. Allow the
machine to cool before making any inspections, adjustments, etc.
b) Store the machine where fuel vapour will not reach an open flame or spark. For extended storage
periods, run the unit dry of fuel. Always allow the machine to cool before storing;
c) When servicing the cutting means be aware that, even though the power source will not start due
to the interlock feature of the guard, the cutting means can still be moved by a manual starting
mechanism.
Additional safety instructions for units with bagging attachments
a) shut-off the power unit before attaching or removing the bag.
