sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
3. Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control. Provide barriers or shields as
needed. Children should never be allowed in the work area.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
4. Grounded tools must be plugged into an outlet properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all codes and ordinances. Never remove the
grounding prong or modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter
plugs. Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether
the outlet is properly grounded. If the tools should electrically malfunction or
break down, grounding provides a low resistance path to carry electricity away
from the user.
5. Double insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is
wider than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the
plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact
a qualified electrician to install a polarized outlet. Do not change the plug in any
way. Double insulation eliminates the need for the three wire grounded power
cord and grounded power supply system.
6. Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators,
ranges, and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your
body is grounded.
7. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering power
equipment will increase the risk of electric shock.
8. Do not abuse the Power Cord. Never use the Power Cord to pull the Plug
from an outlet. Keep the Power Cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or
moving parts. Replace damaged Power Cords immediately. Damaged
Power Cords increase the risk of electric shock.
9. When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord
marked “W-A” or “W”. These extension cords are rated for outdoor use, and
reduce the risk of electric shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
10. Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, and use common sense when
operating the Wood Shaper. Do not use the tool while tired or under the
influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while

operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
11. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair.
Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose
clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
12. Avoid accidental starting. Make sure the Power Switch is off before plugging
in. Carrying power tools with your finger on the Power Switch, or plugging in
power tools with the Power Switch on, invites accidents.
13. Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the power tool on. A
key or a wrench that is left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may
result in personal injury.
14. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper
footing and balance enables better control of the power tool in unexpected
situations.
15. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Always wear
ANSI approved safety impact goggles, heavy duty work gloves, and a dust
mask or respirator when using this product. ANSI approved hearing
protection must also be used.
TOOL USE AND CARE
18. Disconnect the Power Cord Plug from the power source before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventative
safety measures reduce the risk of starting the unit accidentally.
19. Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools
are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
20. Maintain tools with care. Properly maintained tools are less likely to malfunction
and are easier to control. Do not use a damaged tool. Tag damaged tools “Do
not use” until repaired.
16. Do not force the tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool
will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed.
17. Do not use the power tool if the Power Switch does not turn it on or off. Any
tool that cannot be controlled with the Power Switch is dangerous and must be
replaced.
21. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and
any other condition that may affect the tool’s operation. If damaged, have

the tool serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained tools.
SKU 95091 For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353 PAGE 5
22. Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your
model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool may become hazardous
when used on another tool.
SERVICE
23. Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel. Service
or maintenance performed by unqualified personnel could result in a risk of injury.
24. When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow
instructions in the
“Inspection, Maintenance, And Cleaning”
section of this
manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow maintenance instructions
may create a risk of electric shock or injury.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES AND PRECAUTIONS
1. Maintain labels and nameplates on the Chipper/Shredder. These carry
important information. If unreadable or missing, contact Harbor Freight Tools for
a replacement.
2. Make sure the Chipper/Shredder is located on a flat, level, sturdy surface
capable of supporting the weight of the Chipper/Shredder and any
additional tools and equipment. Do not use on a sloped surface.
3. Industrial applications must follow OSHA guidelines.
4. Never stand on the Chipper/Shredder. Serious injury could result if the
machine is tipped.
5. Never leave the Chipper/Shredder unattended when it is running. Turn off
the Power Switch and unplug the tool before leaving.
6. Be extremely cautious of the rotating Blade in the Chipper/Shredder.
Never allow your hands, fingers, or any other part of your body to
enter the Chipper/Shredder hopper.
7. Never place your hands, fingers, feet, or any other part of your body close
to the Discharge Opening while the Chipper/Shredder is in operation.
8. Do not look into the Hopper or Discharge Opening when the machine is
running.
9. Never allow metal, stone, glass, or other foreign objects to be fed into the

GROUNDING
WARNING!
Improperly connecting the grounding wire can result in
the risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician
if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly
grounded. Do not modify the power cord plug provided with
the tool. Never remove the grounding prong from the plug.
Do not use the tool if the power cord or plug is damaged.
If damaged, have it repaired by a service facility before use.
If the plug will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.
DOUBLE INSULATED TOOLS:TOOLS WITH TWO PRONG PLUGS
1. Tools marked “Double Insulated” do not require grounding. They have a special
double insulation system which satisfies OSHA requirementsand complies with
the applicable standards of Underwriters Laboratories, Inc., the Canadian
Standard Association, and the National Electrical Code. (See Figure A.)
2. Double insulated tools may be used in either of the 120 volt outlets as shown in
the following illustration. (See Figure A.)

GROUNDED TOOLS:TOOLS WITH THREE PRONG PLUGS
1. Tools marked with “Grounding Required” have a three wire cord and three prong
grounding plug. The plug must be connected to a properly grounded outlet. If
the tool should electrically malfunction or break down, grounding provides a low
resistance path to carry electricity away from the user, reducing the risk of electric
shock. (See Figure B, next page.)
2. The grounding prong in the plug is connected through the green wire inside the
cord to the grounding system in the tool. The green wire in the cord must be the

only wire connected to the tool’s grounding system and must never be attached
to an electrically “live” terminal. (See Figure B.)
3. The Chipper/Shredder must be plugged into an appropriate outlet, properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all codes and ordinances. The plug
and outlet should look like those in the following illustration. (See Figure B.)

EXTENSION CORDS
1.
Grounded
tools require a three wire extension cord.
Double Insulated
tools
can use either a two or three wire extension cord.
2. As the distance from the supply outlet increases, you must use a heavier gauge
extension cord. Using extension cords with inadequately sized wire causes a
serious drop in voltage, resulting in loss of power and possible tool damage.
(See Figure C, next page.)
3. The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cord.
For example, a 14 gauge cord can carry a higher current than a 16 gauge cord.
(See Figure C, next page.)
4. When using more than one extension cord to make up the total length, make
sure each cord contains at least the minimum wire size required.
(See Figure C, next page.)
5. If you are using one extension cord for more than one tool, add the nameplate
amperes and use the sum to determine the required minimum cord size.
(See Figure C, next page.)
6. If you are using an extension cord outdoors, make sure it is marked with the
suffix “W-A” (“W” in Canada) to indicate it is acceptable for outdoor use.
7. Make sure your extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition.
