•Always unwind any extension reels fully.
•For extension reels up to 15 metres use a wire cross
section of 1.5mm2 . For extension cords over 15 metres
but less than 40 metres, use a wire cross section of
2.5mm2 rated at 10 amps
27 Use only original replacement parts for repair and
maintenance purposes.
28 Have repairs carried out only by a qualified electrician.
29 Examine the shredder for signs of wear or damage each
time before you use it and after any collisions. Have
essential repairs carried out without delay.
30 Never use replacement parts or accessories which are
not recommended by the manufacturer.
31 Pull out the power plug before carrying out any
inspection, cleaning or other work on the shredder and
whenever it is not being used.
32 Before you begin your work, examine the material you
want to shred. Remove any foreign bodies. Continue to
watch out for foreign bodies while you are working. If you
come across any foreign bodies while shredding, shut
down the machine and remove the items in question.
33 Keep the machine away from other persons, particularly
children and pets.
34 Use the machine only in the way described in these
operating instructions.
35 Only ever connect the device to a shock-proof socket
which has been installed in accordance with regulations
and which is protected by a 16A fuse as a minimum.
36 The efficiency of the machine will be greatly reduced if a
connecting cable with too small a cross section is used. A
conductor cross section of at least 3x1.5 mm2 is required
for cables up to 25 m long, and one of at least 3x2.5 mm2
for cables longer than 25 m.
37 If the machine has to be lifted for transporting, be sure to
switch off the motor first and wait for the cutter to come
to a standstill. Each time before you leave the machine,
switch off the motor and pull out the power plug. Before
you connect the machine to the power supply, make sure
that the loading funnel is properly connected to the
motor housing and the release screw tightened.
38 If the garden refuse shredder vibrates excessively, turn
off the motor, pull out the power plug, and find out
immediately what is causing the vibrations. Intensive
vibration is usually a sign that something is wrong.
39 Do not wear loose clothing or clothing with hanging
belts or cords.
40 Do not use the machine on a paved area that has been
graveled where discharged material may cause injuries.
41 Ensure that the loading funnel inlet is empty before you
start the machine.
42 Keep your head and body away from the infeed opening.
43 Do not move your hands, other body parts or clothing
into the infeed chamber, ejector chute or near other
moving parts.
44 Make sure that you are balanced and standing on a firm
surface at all times. Do not stretch forwards. Never stand
higher than the machine when feeding material into it.
45 Keep away from the discharge zone when you start the
machine.
46 If foreign bodies get into the cutting tool or the machine
generates unusual noises or vibrates in a strange way,
switch off the motor immediately and allow the machine
to come to a standstill. Pull the plug and carry out the
following work:
•Check the machine for signs of damage
•Check that all the parts are secure and tighten them
if necessary.
