IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When using electric gardening appliances, basic safety precautions should always be
followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and personal injury, including the
following:
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
Power Cord Safety
To reduce the risk of electric shock, use only with an extension cord intended for
outdoor use, such as an extension cord of cord type SW-A, SOW-A, STW-A, STOW-A,
SJW-A, SJOW-A, SJTW-A. or SJTOW-A.
1. Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protection should be provided on the circuit(s) or
outlet(s) to be used for the gardening appliance. Receptacles are available having built-in
GFCI protection and may be used for this measure of safety.
2. Do not Abuse Cord - Do not carry appliance by cord or yank it to disconnect from receptacle.
Keep cord from heat, oil, and sharp edges.
3. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider
than the other) and will require the use of a polarized extension cord. The appliance plug will
fit into a polarized extension cord only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the extension
cord, reverse the plug. If the plug still does not fit, obtain a correct polarized extension cord.
A polarized extension cord will require the use of a polarized wall outlet. This plug will fit into
the polarized wall outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the wall outlet, reverse
the plug. If the plug still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper wall
outlet. Do not change the equipment plug, extension cord receptacle, or extension cord plug
in any way. This design is referred to as double-insulated, indicated by.
4. WARNING: The cord of this product contains lead, a chemical known to the State of
California to cause cancer, and birth defects or other reproductive harm. Wash hands after
handling. (California Health & Safety Code § 25249.5, et seq.)
5. Extension Cord - Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an
extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw.
An undersized extension cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and
overheating.
Extension Cord Size
The following table shows the correct cord size to use depending on cord length and
nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge
number, the heavier the cord.
E2

Connecting Cords
To reduce the risk of the cords pulling apart during operation, do one of the following:
1. Make a knot as shown below then connect the cords:
2. Or, use a plug-receptacle retaining strap or connector designed to hold extension cords to
appliance cords.
Personal Safety
1. Dress Properly - Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. They can be caught in moving parts.
Use of rubber gloves and substantial footwear is recommended when working outdoors.
Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair.
2. Wear ANSI-approved safety goggles and heavy-duty work gloves. Use face or dust mask if
operation is dusty.
3. Avoid Unintentional Starting - Do not carry plugged-in appliance with finger on switch. Be
sure switch is off when plugging in.
4. Do not Overreach - Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
5. Stay Alert - Watch what you are doing. Use common sense. Do not operate appliance when
you are tired.
6. People with pacemakers should consult their physician(s) before use. Electromagnetic fields
in close proximity to heart pacemaker could cause pacemaker interference or pacemaker
failure. In addition, people with pacemakers should:
Avoid operating alone.
Don’t use with power switch locked on.
Properly maintain and inspect to avoid electrical shock.
Any power cord must be properly grounded. Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) should
also be implemented – it prevents sustained electrical shock.
Gardening Appliance Use and Care
1. Avoid Dangerous Environment - Do not use appliances in damp or wet locations.
2. Do not use in rain.
3. Keep Children Away - All visitors should be kept at a distance from work area.
4. When servicing use only identical replacement parts.
5. Before Starting the Shredder, make sure that the hopper inlet is empty.
6. Keep your face and body away from the Hopper opening.
7. Stay clear of the discharge area. Keep body and hands away from the discharge chute.

9. Before feeding material into the shredder, remove any metal, rocks, bottles, cans or other
foreign objects that may damage blades.
10. Use Right Appliance - Do not use appliance for any job except that for which it is intended.
11. Do not Force Appliance - It will do the job better and with less likelihood of injury at the rate
for which it was designed.
12. Store Idle Appliances Indoors - When not in use, appliances should be stored indoors in
dry, and high or locked-up place - out of reach of children.
13. Maintain Appliance With Care - Keep cutting edge sharp and clean for best performance
and to reduce the risk of injury. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accesso-
ries. Inspect appliance cord periodically, and if damaged, have it repaired by an authorized
service facility. Inspect extension cords periodically and replace if damaged. Keep handles
dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.
14. Check Damaged Parts - Before further use of the appliance, a guard or other part that is
damaged should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform
its intended function. Check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts, mounting, and any other condition that may affect its operation. A guard
or other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by a qualified
technician unless indicated elsewhere in this manual.
15. Disconnect Appliance - Disconnect the appliance from the power supply when not in use,
before servicing, when changing accessories such as blades, and the like.
16. Keep guards in place and in working
order.
17. Keep blades sharp.
18. Keep clear of intake and discharge
chute. Use included push paddle.
Unplug unit and allow it to stop
before unclogging.
19. In order to reduce dust entering the
motor, clean the filter cotton frequently.
It is better to clean it after each use.
The steps are: Take out the filter
cotton from the air inlet, after
cleaning the filter cotton,
install it back.
