time of operation (60%) at no-load. There is no time de-energized and at rest.
Noise Information
Measured sound values determined according to EN 50434: 2014.
The noise figures quoted are emission levels and are not necessarily safe working levels.
Whilst there is a correlation between the emission and exposure levels, this cannot be used
reliably to determine whether or not further precautions are required. Factors that influence
the actual level of exposure of work-force include the characteristics of the work room, the
other sources of noise, etc. i.e. the number of machines and other adjacent processes, and
the length of time for which an operator is exposed to the noise. Also the permissible

GB
10/19
exposure level can vary from country. This information, however, will enable the user of the
machine to make a better evaluation of the hazard and risk.
Wear hearing protection!

Operation
Attention! Before starting up the machine, familiarize yourself with its proper use
by carefully reading through the instructions for use. Attention! Before starting up the
machine, you must always check whether it has been properly closed.
DANGER! The appliance is absolutely FORBIDDEN to be used without motor box fixed in
place.
Always use the correct supply voltage
The power supply voltage must match the information quoted on your shredder's
identification plate. Shredders with a rating of 230 V can only be connected to a 230 V mains
supply.
The shredder shall be supplied via a residual current device (RCD) with a tripping current of
not more than 30mA
An extension cable with a cross section that is too small causes a distinct reduction in the
performance capabilities of the machine. For cables up to 25 m in length, a cross section of at
least 3 x 1.5 mm2is required; for cables more than 25 m in length, the cross section must be
at least 2.5 mm2.
On/off switch
Press the green button (2) to switch on the shredder.
Press the red button to（3) to switch it off.
Note: This machine is equipped with an electromagnetic switch to prevent it from being
unexpectedly switched on when power source recovered.

GB
14/19
Reversing switch
Caution! The reversing switch can only be operated when the shredder is switched off.
Position F (12)
The reversing switch has been set to position F. The chopping knife will pull in the material
and chop it. The switch is set to position R after the manufacturer's test.
Position R (13)
When the chopping knife is jammed so that the motor cannot keep running, first press the red
button of the on/off switch to stop the motor. Then completely turn the reversing switch to left
position R and press the on/off switch (the green button). Keep the green button of the on/off
switch pressed, the chopping knife will rotate into the reverse direction and release the
material to enable you to remove it. When you release the on/off switch the shredder will stop
automatically.
Overload protection
If the appliance is overloaded, it stops automatically. Overload (e.g. blocking up of the
chopping knife) will lead to a standstill of the machine after a few seconds. To protect the
motor from getting damaged, the overload switch will automatically cut off the mains supply.
Wait at least 1 minute before restarting by first pressing the reset button (1) and then the
on/off switch.
If the chopping knife is blocked turn the reversing switch to left position R before switching on
the shredder again.
Feeding
Fig11
A feeder is provided to aid feeding less bulky material such as small twigs, leaves, other
garden waste and vegetation into the Feed intake opening. (FIg.11A)
1 Load the material into the Feed intake opening.
2 Insert the feeder into the Feed intake opening and push the material onto the blade disc.
3 Wait until all the material has been shredded before adding more material.
WARNING:
Your fingers must never enter the feeding funnel. Never use this machine if the top
hopper is not fitted. Do not overreach. (Fig 11B)
Feed the material to be chopped into the right side of the feed intake opening. The material is
automatically pulled in by the chopping knife.
Caution!

GB
15/19
Longer material standing out from the machine could lash out when being pulled in by
the chopping knife! Keep a safety distance!
Warning!
Always use the feeder if you try to push the material into the feeding tunnel. Do not use your
hands directly! Keep the feeder well after use.
Only insert as much material as will not block up the feed intake opening.
Chop garden waste that has been stored for some days and is wilted and damp alternately
with branches.
This will prevent the chopping knife from getting blocked up.
Do not fill into the shredder any soft material such as kitchen waste instead of compositing it.
Widely branched material with leaves must be completely chopped before any new material
is fed in.
Take care that the chopped material can freely fall from the discharge chute – danger of
backing up!
The ventilation slots must not be covered by the waste bag or the chopped material.
Emptying the collection box
The level of shredded material debris in the collection box can be checked by looking through
the notches on the upper face of the base frame. Always empty the collection box in good
time to prevent it from overfilling.
To empty it, proceed as follows:
a) Switch off the device at the ON/OFF switch.
b) Press the lock handle down.
c) Release the collection box.
D) Take the collection box out at the front.
