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 operating speed and protects the power source and all moving parts from damage
caused by over-speed. Seek authorized 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.

Maintenance 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
(electric unit disconnect from supply), 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.
