BRUSH BUDDY® WOOD CHIPPER SAFETY TOOLS
HANDS FREE FROM DEBRIS
Brush Buddy® is a utility patented, purpose built safety tool designed to help operators guide brush, limbs, and shorter woody debris into wood chippers while maintaining better separation from the infeed area.
Unlike brooms, shovels, rakes, and other improvised tools, Brush Buddy products are made specifically for wood chipper feeding. Their all wood, non-metallic construction provides crews with a dedicated tool for moving difficult material without using their hands or feet near the infeed rollers.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Safety laws, regulations, and industry standards vary by country, state, province, territory, and worksite.
Always use Brush Buddy in accordance with:
• The wood chipper manufacturer’s instructions
• Your employer’s operating and safety procedures
• Required operator training
• Applicable local laws and industry standards
• Site specific risk assessments
• Required personal protective equipment
Brush Buddy supports safer chipper feeding practices but does not replace machine guards, operator training, supervision, personal protective equipment, or proper shutdown and lockout procedures.
Never use Brush Buddy to clear a blockage, retrieve material from inside a running chipper, bypass a safety device, or reach beyond the machine’s designated infeed area.
Inspect the Brush Buddy before every use. Remove it from service if it is cracked, split, excessively worn, modified, or otherwise damaged.
