GENERAL
8,5cm
. Intended use
The shredder is designed solely for shred-
ding/chipping all kinds of newly cut tree
branches of diameter up to 8.5 cm.
. Restrictions
You should not use the shredder for shred-
ding/chipping metal, stones, plastics. If you
are going to shred tree roots check that the diameter is less than
8.5 cm and remove all earth, sand and stones.
Before using the machine for the rst time, check the maximum en-
gine speed by screwing in/out the screw which controls the position
of the throttle lever so that it is positioned as in the diagram. (g.3)
After the rst hour’s use check that the bolts of the blades and
counter blade are rmly xed and that the gap between blades and
counter blade is 0.5mm (half a millimetre). Adjust in the slots if nec-
essary and x the bolts.(fig. 2a, 2b)
. Description of the Machine
The shredder is a machine for shredding/chipping newly cut wood.
The rotor has 2 blades each with a 30 cm width and is powered by
a gasoline engine. Transmission is through two parallel drive
belts. The shredded wood or chips are discharged through the out-
put tube by the centrifugal force of the rotor. Because of the angle
of the blades and the positioning of the counter blade branches
are pulled inside the machine automatically and no feeder belt is
required. (g.1)

WORKING WITH THE SHREDDER
1. Safety and technical remarks
1.1. The user should be 18 years old or more.
1.2. The machine should be positioned on a horizontal, rm sur-
face.
1.3. Users must wear safety gloves, ear-protection and safety
goggles. (g.4)
1.4. When working in a conned space, always make sure there is
sufcient ventilation and lighting, in order to reduce the risk of
suffocation and injury.
1.5. Only one person at a time should operate the machine.
g.4

1.6. Pieces jamming the input tube can only be removed safely
when the engine is stopped, the spark plug cap removed
and the rotor is stopped and blocked. If necessary, unbolt
and tip the input and output tubes to facilitate access to the
rotor. Use a wooden pole to remove pieces stuck in the rotor.
Never use your hands. (g.68)
1.7. Never leave the machine running unattended.
1.8. Changing the blades of the rotor or the counter blade and
checking blade bolts should only be done when the engine
and rotor are stopped, the spark plug cap is removed and the
rotor is blocked.
1.9. After one hour of use always check that all bolts and nuts are
still tightened properly. If not, tighten them again or bring the
machine back to your dealer/service-point.
1.10. Use only original parts for maintaining
your shredder, otherwise the warranty will be void.
1.11. The shredder can only be repaired by a skilled dealer/ser-
vice-point.
1.12. The shredder exceeds 90 dBA during operation. Therefore all
users and onlookers must wear ear-protection.
1.13 Before use, make secure that the bolts on the xed blade are
rmly xed. Check after one hour that thebolts still are rmly
xed (just rst time).

2. Before operating the machine
Make sure the machine stands rmly on the ground and does not
tilt in any way. The danger zone on the output of the machine must
be respected, in order to avoid serious injury by chips thrown out of
the output tube. Chips can be thrown a distance of 12 meters, so
onlookers must remain behind the direction of throw or at least 12
meters away from the output tube.
Before using the machine for the rst time, check the maximum en-
gine speed by screwing in/out the screw which controls the position
of the throttle lever so that it is positioned as in the diagram.
After the rst hour’s use check that the bolts of the blades and
counter blade are rmly xed and that the gap between blades and
counter blade is 0.5mm (half a millimetre). Adjust in the slots if nec-
essary and x the bolts.
3. Starting and operating the machine
Start the engine at half throttle and let it warm up for about 3
minutes. (For proper use of the engine one should also read the at-
tached manual). Then put the engine on full throttle. (g.9,10)
Put the branches in the input tube and when you feel they are
pulled in by the rotating blades, let the branch go. Do not hang on
to the branch, the branch will be pulled in by the machine by itself.
Side branches with a diameter exceeding 3 cm should be sawn or
cut off and shredded separately.
Warning!
In case of emergency or any doubt, immediately activate the safety
switch (red knob) to be found by the engine. (g.11)
Before starting the engine check that the bolts holding the input and
output tubes are fully tightened. (g.12,13)

4. Transport
Before moving the machine, stop the engine!
MAINTENANCE AND CHECKS
All technical check-ups and maintenance should be done with the
engine shut off and the spark plug cap removed from the spark
plug.
While cleaning the shredder, never spray the bearings with a high
pressure washer! It could cause water to enter the bearings which
will cause damage to the machine; (this is not covered by warranty).
The two grease nipples on the rotor require lubricating once a year
or every 500 hours.
Before putting the shredder into storage grease or oil the bearings,
blades and rotor to protect against corrosion.
1. Points to be checked
2. Cleaning the machine
For engine maintenance refer to the Engine Manufacturers Engine
Manual.
Note that the rst engine oil change is after 5 hours use.
