INTRODUCTION

ATTENTION OWNER/OPERATOR

BEFORE OPERATING THIS MACHINE:

Carefully read the Operator’s Manual, completely understand the Safety Messages and instructions, and know how to operate correctly both the tractor and Shredder.

Fill out the Warranty Card in full. Be sure to answer all questions, including the Serial Number of the Shredder. Mail within 30 days of delivery date of this implement.

NOTE: Warranties are honored only if completed "Owner Registration and Warranty" froms are received by Servis Rhino within thirty days of delivery of the shredder.

Record the Shredder Model and Serial Numbers on the Warranty page at the rear of the Operator’s Man- ual. Keep this as part of the permanent maintenance file for the Shredder.

This Flail Shredder is designed for medium-duty work. It will mow grass and weeds and shred row crop stalks very effectively.

For Non-Agricultural use, OSHA, ASAE, SAE, and ANSI standards require the use of Chain Guards, Deflectors, or Solid Skirts at all times. The Mower manufacturer strongly recommends the use of Chain Guards, Deflectors, or Solid Skirts for Agricultural purposes as well to reduce the risk of property damage, serious bodily injury, or even death from objects thrown out by or from contact with the Cutting Blades.

Front and rear, and left and right are determined by the normal direction of travel (the same as on your automobile).
