Before turning machine off, use the Tamper to slowly push
remaining pieces of wood through the chipper. This can
prevent any remaining wood from jamming in the chipper when
machine is turned off.
Do not leave tamper on the ground, store tamper in the chipper
hopper.
Using two people to lift machine is recommended. Lift holding the
handle and front of nozzle. Secure in place during transport.
Never store engine indoors or in enclosed poorly ventilated
areas with fuel in tank, where fuel fumes may reach an open
flame, spark or pilot light, as on a furnace, water heater,
clothes dryer or other gas appliance.
If engine is to be unused for 30 days or more, prepare as
follows:
Be sure engine is cool. Do not smoke. Remove all
gasoline from carburetor and fuel tank to prevent gum deposits
from forming on these parts and causing possible malfunction
of engine. Drain fuel outdoors, into an approved container, away
from open flame. Run engine until fuel tank is empty and
engine runs out of gasoline.
NOTE: Fuel stabilizer (such as Sta-Bil) is an acceptable
alternative in minimizing the formation of fuel gum deposits
during storage. Add stabilizer to gasoline in fuel tank or storage
container. Always follow mix ratio found on stabilizer container.
Run engine at least 10 min. after adding stabilizer to allow it to
reach the carburetor.
Do not store with debris in bag.
