In order to collect the chopped material, fasten
the carrying straps of the collecting bag 9 (acces-
sory) to the two hooks 6.
Feed the material to be chopped. The material is
pulled in by the spiral cutting knives.
Longer material standing out from the ma-
chine could lash out when being pulled in
bytheknives!Pleasekeepatsafedistance!
Only insert as much material so that the feed fun-
nel 1 will not be blocked up.
Chop garden waste which has been stored for
some days and is wilted and damp alternately
with branches.
This prevents the spiral cutting knives from blok-
king up.
Do not fill soft waste such as kitchen rubbish into
the shredder but compost them.
Always feed the material to be chopped from the
corner of the feed funnel 1 marked with the arrow.
Widely branched material with leaves must be
completely chopped before new material is fed.
Take care that the chopped material can fall freely
from the ejection slot 7 – danger of backing up!
The ventilation slots 5 must not be covered by the
collecting bag or the chopped material.
The motor does not run:
■The overload protection has responded.
Turn the rotational direction switch 3 to the left
position (backwards) and switch the machine
back on after a short period. After the blocking
has been removed, turn the rotational direction
switch 3 back to the right position.
■Check the power supply cord, the plug and the
house fuse.
The material to be chopped is not pulled in:
■The spiral cutting knives are running back-
wards. Switch over the direction of rotation.
■The material to be chopped is jammed in the
feed funnel 1: Turn the rotational direction
switch 3 to the left position (backwards) and
switch the machine back on. Pull the material
from the feed funnel with aid of the supplied
clearing hook 10. After the blocking has been
removed turn the rotational direction switch 3
back to the right position.
Re-feed thick branches such that the knives do
not immediately grasp the pre-cut notches
again.
The spiral cutting knives are blocked:
Turn the rotational direction switch 3 to the left po-
sition and switch the machine on. The spiral cut-
ting knives will now run backwards to release the
blocked up material (or the foreign body). After
the blocking has been removed turn the rotational
direction switch 3 back to the right position.
Longer material standing out from the ma-
chine could lash out when being pulled in
by the knives! Please keep at safe distance!
Direction of rotation remains unchanged after
switch-over:
Change the direction of rotation to the desired po-
sition after the machine has come to a complete
standstill.
■Before any work on the machine itself, pull
the mains plug.
☞For safe and proper working, always keep
the machine and the ventilation slots clean.
The shredder must not be cleaned with high-pres-
sure cleaners or running water.
The tightness of the fastening screws of the un-
dercarriage should be checked from time to time.
To protect the machine from corrosion when stor-
ing for a longer period, treat the spiral cutting
knives with Bosch preservation spray (accessory,
order no. 1 609 200 399). This spray is harmless
to the environment and decomposable.
If the machine should happen to fail despite the
care taken in manufacture and testing, repair
should be carried out by an authorised customer
services agent for Bosch power tools.
For all correspondence and spare parts orders,
always include the 10 digit order number from the
nameplate of the machine!
