OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
Thisshredderisdesignedforcuttingbrousandwoodygardenwaste.
Ensurethatthecorrectextensioncableisused.Forcablesupto25metreslong,acrosssection
ofatleast3x1.5m²isrequired;forcablesmorethan25metreslongthecrosssectionmustbeat
least2.5m².Anextensioncablewithacrosssectionthatistoosmallcausesadistinctreduction
intheperformance.
Useareceptacleunderthedebrischutetocollecttheshreddedmaterial.
On/Off Switch:
• Pressthegreenbuttontoswitchtheshredderon.
• Presstheredbuttontoswitchoff.
• Note:themachineisequippedwithasafetydevicetopreventitautomaticallyswitchingitself
onafterapowerfailure.
Rotational Direction Switch:
Therotationaldirectionswitchcanonlybeoperatedwhentheshredderisswitchedoff.
• Position1-thecuttinggearwilldrawthematerialintothehopperandshredit.
• Position0-thecuttinggearoperatesinareversedirectionandjammedmaterialisfreed.
Overload Protection:
• Inordertoprotectthemotor,theoverloadprotectionwillactivateafterafewsecondsifthere
isablockageandwillcutoffthemachineautomatically.
• Waitatleastaminutebeforerestarting-presstheResetbuttonandthetheOn/Offswitch.If
necessaryswitchtoreversetofreeanyblockage.
Hints and Tips:
• Standingattherearofthemachine,feedthematerialintotherightsideofthehopper-the
materialwillbepulledinautomatically.
• Care:Longermaterialmayoscillatewhenbeingpulledinbythecuttingmechanism
• Donotllwithtoomuchmaterialatoncesoastoavoidtheriskofblockage.
• Alternategardenwastewhichhaswiltedwithwoodierbranches-toomuchsoftwastewillclog
upthecuttingmechanism-itisbettertocompostsoftgardenwaste.
• Largermaterialwithleavesmustbecompletelyshreddedbeforefeedinginnewmaterial.
• Theventilationslotsmustnotbecoveredbythedebrisbagoftheshreddedmaterial.

MAINTENANCE
Adjusting the Cutting Mechanism
Occasionallyitmaybenecessarytoadjustthecuttingmechanism.
ThedistancebetweenthecuttinggearBandthecuttingplateAshouldbebetween0.50
and1.00mm.
Ontherighthandsideoftheshredder(lookingfromtheback)thereisanadjustingdevice.
Usingthehexkeysuppliedinsertandturnclockwisehalfaturn(0.50mm)sothatboltC
movestowardthecuttingplate(A).
Afteradjustingtestthemachinewithvaryingthicknessesofmaterialandre-adjustif
necessary.BearinmindthatthetwocuttingmechanismsshouldNOTtouch.
Keepairventscleanandfreefromdust.
Useonlyadampclothtocleanthemachineanddonotspraywaterontheshredder.
Detergentsandsolventscancauseirreparabledamageandchemicalscandestroythe
plastichousing.
Checkthetightnessofscrewsandboltsfromtimetotime.Afewdropsofoilonthecutting
mechanismwillhelpprotectfromcorrosion.
