2. CHILDREN
Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the
presence of small children.
Children are often attracted to
the chipper-shredder
and the chipping and shredding
activity. Never assume that children will remain where you
last saw them.
•
Keep children out of the work area and under the
watchful eye of a responsible adult other than the
operator.
•
Be alert and turn the unit off if a child enters the area.
•
Never allow children under the age of 16 to operate the
chipper-shredder.
3. SERVICE
•
Use extreme care in handling gasoline and other fuels.
They are extremely flammable and the vapors are
explosive.
a.
Store fuel and oil in approved containers, away
from heat and open flame, and out of the reach of
children.
Check and add fuel before starting the
engine. Never remove gas cap or add fuel while
the engine is running. Allow engine to cool at
least two minutes before refueling.
b.
Replace gasoline cap securely and wipe off any
spilled gasoline before starting the engine as it
may cause a fire or explosion.
c.
Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes and other
sources of ignition.
d.
Never refuel unit indoors because flammable
vapors will accumulate in the area.
e.
Never store the machine or fuel container inside
where there is an open flame or spark such as a
gas hot water heater, space heater, clothes dryer
or furnace.
Never run your machine in an enclosed area as the
exhaust from the engine contains carbon monoxide,
which is an odorless, tasteless and deadly poisonous
gas.
To reduce fire hazard, keep engine and muffler free of
leaves, grass, and other debris build-up. Clean up fuel
and oil spillage.
Allow unit to cool at least 5 minutes
before storing.
Before cleaning, repairing, or inspecting, make certain
the impeller and all moving parts have stopped.
Disconnect the spark plug wire and keep wire away
from spark plug to prevent accidental starting.
Do not
use flammable solutions to clean air filter.
Check the blade and engine mounting screws at
frequent intervals for proper tightness.
Also visually
inspect blades for wear and/or damage (e.g., bent,
cracked).
Replace with blades which meet original
equipment specifications.
Keep all nuts, bolts, and screws tight to be sure the
equipment is in safe working condition.
Never tamper with safety devices. Check their proper
operation regularly.
After striking a foreign object, immediately stop the
engine, disconnect the spark plug wire from the spark
plug, and thoroughly inspect the unit for any damage.
Repair damage before starting and operating unit.
Do not alter or tamper with the engine's governor
setting. The governor controls the maximum safe
operating speed of the engine. Over-speeding
the
engine is dangerous and will cause damage to the
engine and to other moving parts of the machine.
