The Engine Exhaust from this product contains chemicals known to the 

State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.

 This machine was built to be operated according to the rules for safe operation in this 

manual. As with any type of power equipment, carelessness or error on the part of the operator can 
result in serious injury. This machine is capable of amputating hands and feet and throwing objects. 
Failure to observe the following safety instructions could result in serious injury or death.

• Read this operator’s manual carefully in its entirety

before attempting to assemble this machine. Read,
understand, and follow all instructions on the machine
and in the manual(s) before operation. Be completely
familiar with the controls and the proper use of this
machine before operating it. Keep this manual in a
safe place for future and regular reference and for
ordering replacement parts.

• 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 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.

• 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. 

• 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.

• 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

nozzle, chipper chute or discharge opening as the
rotating impeller can cause serious injury.

• Do not operate this machine while under the

influence of alcohol or drugs.

• If it is necessary for any reason to unclog the feed

intake or discharge openings or to inspect or repair
any part of the machine where a moving part can
come in contact your body or clothing, stop the
machine, allow it to cool, disconnect the spark plug
wire from the spark plug and ground against the
engine before attempting to unclog, inspect or repair. 

• 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.

• 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.

• 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.

• 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.

• Keep all guards and safety devices in place and

operating properly.
