wire from the spark plug and ground against the  
engine before attempting to unclog, inspect or repair.  
• This machine is  
a
precision piece of power  
equipment, not a plaything. Therefore, exercise  
extreme caution at all times. Your unit has been  
designed to chip, shred, vacuum, or blow. Do not use  
it for any other purpose.  
• Never operate unit without the vacuum bag or blower  
chute properly affixed to unit. To avoid a thrown  
object the large open end of bag must be securely  
closed prior to operation to prevent objects from  
being thrown out of the bag.  
• Never allow children under 16 years old to operate  
this machine. Children 16 years old and over should  
read and understand the operation instructions and  
safety rules in this manual and should be trained and  
supervised by an adult. Only responsible individuals  
who are familiar with these rules of safe operation  
should be allowed to use this machine.  
• If operating in the blower mode (optional blower chute  
attachment may be included with your unit):  
• Do not stand or walk in front of blower discharge or  
aim it at bystanders, pets, vehicles, ect. Objects  
thrown out the discharge can cause personal injury or  
property damage.  
• Thoroughly inspect the area where the equipment is  
to be used. Remove all stones, sticks, wire, bones,  
toys, and other foreign objects which could be tripped  
over or picked up and thrown by the chipper shredder  
vacuum in any direction which could cause serious  
personal injury to the operator or any others allowed  
in the area.  
• Do not direct blower discharge against a wall or other  
vertical obstructions. Discharge materials may  
ricochet back at the operator.  
• Adjust vac nozzle height to highest position to reduce  
likelihood of heavier objects (e.g., small stones,  
pieces of glass or metal) being picked up and thrown  
out the discharge. Raising nozzle to highest position  
also maximizes air intake for improved blowing  
performance.  
• Always wear safety glasses or safety goggles during  
operation or while performing an adjustment or repair,  
to protect eyes from foreign objects that may be  
thrown from the machine in any direction.  
• Never attempt to remove or empty vacuum bag when  
engine is running. Shut the engine off and wait for the  
impeller to come to a complete stop before removing  
the bag. The impeller continues to rotate for a few  
seconds after the engine is shut off. Never place any  
part of the body in the impeller area until you are sure  
the impeller has stopped rotating.  
• Wear sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and close-fitting  
slacks and shirts. Shirts and pants that cover the  
arms and legs and steel-toed shoes are  
recommended. Never operate a unit in bare feet,  
sandals, slippery or light weight (e.g. canvas) shoes.  
• Never place your hands or any part of your body or  
clothing near rotating parts. Keep clear of the  
discharge opening at all times. Never insert your  
hands or any part of your body or clothing into the  
• Keep all guards and safety devices in place and  
operating properly.

• Do not allow an accumulation of processed material  
to build up in the discharge area as this will prevent  
proper discharge.  
SAFE HANDLING OF GASOLINE:  
To avoid personal injury or property damage use extreme  
care in handling gasoline. Gasoline is extremely flammable  
and the vapors are explosive. Serious personal injury can  
occur when gasoline is spilled on yourself or your clothes  
which can ignite. Wash your skin and change clothes  
immediately.  
• When feeding material into the chipper, do not stand  
with your face or body directly in front of the chipper  
chute. Stand to one side. Material being feed may  
bounce back out of the chute and cause personal  
injury.  
• Use only an approved gasoline container.  
• If the cutting mechanism strikes a foreign object or if  
your machine should start making an unusual noise  
or vibration, immediately stop the engine, wait for  
impeller to come to a complete stop, and disconnect  
the spark plug wire and ground against the engine.  
Follow steps listed below:  
• Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes, and other  
sources of ignition.  
• Never fuel machine indoors because flammable  
vapors will accumulate in the area.  
• Never remove gas cap or add fuel while the engine is  
running. Allow engine to cool at least two minutes  
before refueling.  
Inspect for damage.  
• Repair or replace any damaged parts prior to  
continuing operation.  
• Never over fill fuel tank. Fill tank to no more than 1/2  
inch below bottom of filler neck to provide space for  
fuel expansion.  
• Check for any loose parts and tighten to assure  
continued safe operation.  
• Replace gasoline cap and tighten securely.  
• Muffler and engine become hot and can cause a  
burn. Do not touch.  
• If gasoline is spilled, wipe it off the engine and  
equipment. Move unit to another area. Wait 5 minutes  
before starting the engine.  
• Only use parts and accessories made for this  
machine by the manufacturer. Failure to do so, can  
result in personal injury.  
• Never store the machine or fuel container inside  
where there is an open flame, spark, or pilot light as  
on a gas water heater, space heater, furnace, clothes  
dryer or other gas appliances.  
• If situations occur which are not covered in this  
manual, use care and good judgment. Contact your  
dealer for assistance. Telephone 1-800-800-7310 for  
the name of your nearest dealer.  
• To reduce fire hazard, keep the machine free of  
grass, leaves, or other debris build-up. Clean up oil or  
fuel spillage and remove any fuel soaked debris.  
CHILDREN  
• Allow machine to cool at least 5 minutes before  
storing.  
Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the  
presence of children. Children are often attracted to the  
chipping and vacuum activity. They do not understand the  
dangers. Never assume that children will remain where you  
last saw them.  
GENERAL SERVICE  
• Never run an engine indoors or in a poorly ventilated  
area. Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, an  
odorless and deadly gas.  
• Keep children out of the work area and under the  
watchful care of a responsible adult other than the  
operator.  
• Before cleaning, repairing, or inspecting, make  
certain the impeller and all moving parts have  
stopped. Disconnect the spark plug wire and ground  
against the engine to prevent unintended starting.  
• Be alert and turn the machine off if a child enters the  
area.  
• Before and while moving backwards, look behind and  
down for small children.  
• Keep all nuts, bolts, and screws tight to be sure the  
equipment is in safe working condition.  
• Use extreme care when approaching blind corners,  
shrubs, trees, or other objects that may obscure your  
vision of a child who may run into the machine.  
• Never tamper with safety devices. Check their proper  
operation regularly.  
• Keep children away from hot or running engines.  
They can suffer burns from a hot muffler.  
• After striking a foreign object, immediately stop the  
engine, disconnect the spark plug wire and ground  
against the engine. Thoroughly inspect the machine  
for any damage. Repair the damage before starting  
and operating.  
• Never allow children under age 16 to operate this  
machine. Children 16 years of age and over should  
read and understand the operation instructions and  
safety rules in this manual and should be trained and  
supervised by an adult.  
• Do not change the engine governor setting or  
overspeed the engine.  
• Maintain or replace safety and instruction labels, as  
necessary.
