INITIAL START-UP
SHREDDER OPERATING ELEMENTS
CHECKING THE RUNNING DIRECTION:
1. Switch on the main switch (1) (fig. 11); i.e. to
position „1“.
2. Place rotary switch (2) (fig. 11) in position
„1“.
3. Check that the shredder is running in the correct
direction and correct the phase relation of the
power plug if necessary.
Correcting the phase relation of the
power plug may only be carried out
by a qualified electrician!
Now that everything has been correctly assembled
and connected, you can proceed to operating
the machine.
Make sure that no loops occur when
feeding strip material. Danger of
injury!
POWER SUPPLY CONNECTION:
a) The maximum value for loop impedance at the
mains connection point is 0.5 Ohms.
b) The conductor cross-section of the power
supply line should be of a magnitude so as
to cause a 15% voltage drop in the case of a
machine blockage (inhibit current = 3 x nominal
current).
APPLICATIONS:
The 14.87 shredder/baler combination is a large-
scale shredding system for the shredding and
baling of large volumes of paper.
The system shreds cardboard and crumpled
paper just as easily as it does flat paper.
The shredder may only be used for
shredding paper and cardboard!
The shredding of other data media may
result in bodily injury (e.g. due to splinter-
ing of hard materials etc.), or damage
to the machine (e.g. destruction of the
cutting system etc.).
3 = Display “Ready”
a) Lit if the main switch (1) is switched on.
b) Flashes if the circuit breaker has
interrupted the power circuit. For
further details, see section “CIRCUIT
BREAKER”.
4 = Display
“Baler not connected” / “Limit switch
lock disconnected” / “Flap open” /
“Jam outlet” / “Electrical fault” / “Bale
completed”
a) Lit if the connection plug of the baler is
not plugged into the socket (19) on the
shredder. At the same time, the display
(5) flashes.
b) Lit if the actuator of the limit switch lock
(20) is not inserted in the limit switch on
the baler (fig. 8).
c) Lit if the filler flap (24) or the ejector flap
(25) is not closed.
Note: the shredder cannot be started
while one of the flaps is open. The baling
ram in the baler can still be moved
forwards (ejection of the bale), and
backwards (reverse stroke) in jog mode
when the filler flap is closed.
d) Lit if the space inside the hopper (16)
is completely filled with cutting material
due to a jam in the filler hole of the baler
and the machine has been switched off
due to the raised cover flap (17). For
information, see section “JAM OUTLET”.
e) Lit although all flaps are closed if one
of the built-in switch contactors in the
shredder has failed. For more details,
see section “ELECTRICAL FAULT”.
f) Flashes if the volume of the bale is
reached and the bale has to be tied off
and ejected. For more details, see section
“TIE OFF” or “EJECT BALE”.
OPERATING FUNCTIONS (fig. 11):
1 = Main switch (emergency-stop)
This switch turns the machine either on
(position “1”) or off (position “0”).
2 = Rotary switch
a) “Cutting system forward” (“1”)
Turning this switch to position “1” starts
the cutting system and the conveyor belt.
Material can now be fed to the shredder.
b) “Cutting system reverse” (“R”)
Turning this switch to position “R” starts
the cutting system and the conveyor belt
in reverse.
c) “Cutting system stop” (“0”)
Turning this switch to position “0” switches
the shredder off, thereby halting the
cutting system and the conveyor belt.
5 = Display
“Paper jam” / “Baler not connected” /
“Ram not in home position” / “Motor
fault”
a) Lit if too much paper is fed into
the cutting system (see description
AUTOMATIC RESPONSE IN CASE OF
OVERLOADING).
b) Flashes if the connection plug of the
baler is not inserted in the socket (19)
on the shredder. At the same time, the
display (4) is lit.
c) Flashes if the baling ram (32) was not
in home position (rearmost position)
when the rotary switch (2) was turned to
position 1 (Cutting system forward) (3).
d) Flashes if the motor of the shredder or
of the baler has been overloaded and the
built-in thermal protection has interrupted
the power circuit. For more details, see
section “MOTOR FAULT”.

USE OF THE SHREDDER:
Switch on as follows:
1. Turn the main switch (1) to position “1”.
2. Turn the rotary switch “Cutting system
forward” (2) to position “1”. The cutting system
is started together with the conveyor belt.
Attention: the machine only operates if
a) the main switch (1) is switched on (position
“1”),
b) the rotary switch (2) is switched on (position
“1” or “R”),
c) the connection plug of the baler is inserted in
the socket (19) on the shredder,
d) the actuator of the limit switch lock (20) (fig.
8) is inserted in the limit switch on the baler,
e) the hopper opening is closed with the cover
flap (17) and
f) the filler flap (24) as well as the ejector flap
(25) on the baler are closed.
MATERIAL FEED:
The operator may not stand higher
than the machine itself stands, when
feeding paper to the machine!
Standing on an raised platform (such as
pallets or boxes placed in front of the
machine) reduces the distance between
operator and cutting system to a level
which does not meet the required safety
standard.
Feed material for the shredder can consist of
stacks of smooth paper (up to about 190 sheets,
depending on the type and size of paper); and
also crumpled paper and cardboard. Place any
material to be shredded on the moving conveyor
belt which feeds it to the cutting system.

BALER OPERATING ELEMENTS
OPERATING FUNCTIONS (fig. 12):
6 = „Advance Ram“ Key
(compacting cycle) (fig. 12)
If this key is pressed, the baling ram (32)
is advanced (compacting cycle) and is then
automatically retuned to its rear, home
position.
Note: If the ram does not return to its home
position, but rather continues to press
against the bale, the bale must be tied off
and then ejected (see ”TYING OFF AND
EJECTING THE BALE”).
7 = „Stop Ram“or
“Open Discharge Flap“ Key (fig. 12)
a) Stop Ram
If this key is activated briefly (less than
2 seconds), the baling ram (32) (fig. 22)
is stopped.
b) Open Discharge Flap
If the key is pressed and held (for at least
2 seconds), the baling ram travels a short
distance in reverse and the locking lever
(27) (fig. 7) is advanced a short distance
(pressure relief at the discharge flap).
The discharge flap (25) can now be
opened. This is necessary when the
baler is holding the bale in the com-
pacted condition.
Note: The discharge flap can only be
opened after this key has been acti-
vated.
8 = „Return Ram“ Key
(return stroke) (fig. 12)
When this key is activated in the automatic
operating mode, the baling ram (32) (fig. 22)
is returned to its rear, home position.
It is advisable to place stacked paper diagonally
on the belt. In this way, the corner of the stack will
be fed to the cutting system first, thus avoiding a
sudden overload.
Never feed the shredder with a quan-
tity of paper exceeding the maximum
indicated in the technical data!
Should the machine become overloaded,
follow the instructions under „AUTO-
MATIC RESPONSE IN CASE OF OVER-
LOADING“.
AUTOMATIC RESPONSE
IN CASE OF „OVERLOADING“:
In case you accidentally overload the shredder,
it will automatically alleviate the problem as
follows:
1. The cutting system becomes jammed. The pilot
lamp (4) (fig. 11) lights up.
2. The cutting system runs briefly in reverse,
thereby freeing the material to be shredded.
3. The cutting system automatically switches back
to forward mode.
This sequence is automatically repeated by the
machine up to three times. If the machine still
detects “overloading”, the cutting system runs in
reverse once more for a specified period of time
and is then shut down.
Redistribute returned material and continue
shredding with a smaller amount of material. The
machine must first be switched off with the rotary
switch (2) (fig. 11) (position “0”), and then back on
again (position “1”) to this end.
JAM OUTLET:
If the space in the hopper (16) (fig. 7) is completely
filled with cutting material due to a jam in the filler
hole of the baler, the machine switches off when
the cover flap (17) is raised (fig. 7). The display
(4) “Jam outlet” lights up.
If this is the case, switch the machine off at the
main switch (1), lift up the cover flap (17) and
remove the material from the machine by hand.
Then you can switch the machine on again and
continue shredding.
Note: the machine can only be started when the
cover flap (17) is closed.
