BASIC SHREDDING SAFETY
The operator should be aware of the following points:
MA NTA N A SAFETY EXCLUS ON ZONE around the shredder of at least 10 metres for the
general public or employees without adequate protection. Due to the nature of material being
shredded and the distance/velocity of discharge, the exclusion zone must be extended to 20
metres in front of the discharge tube exit. Use hazard tape to identify this working area and keep
it clear from debris build up. Shredded material should be ejected away from any area the
general public have access to.
HAZARDOUS MATER AL - Some species of trees and bushes are poisonous. The shredding
action can produce vapour, spray and dust that can irritate the skin. This may lead to respiratory
problems or even cause serious poisoning. Check the material to be shredded before you start.
Avoid confined spaces and use a facemask if necessary.
BE AWARE when the shredder is processing material that is an awkward shape. The material
can move from side to side in the funnel with great force. f the material extends beyond the
funnel, the brash may push you to one side causing danger.
BE AWARE that the shredder can eject material out of the feed funnel with considerable force.
Always wear full head and face protection.
ALWAYS work on the side of the machine furthest from any local danger, e.g. not road side.
WARNING
The shredder will feed material through on its own. To do this, it relies on
the hammers to be free to swing. DO NOT put bricks, large stones, string,
carpet, tyres or metal into the shredder.
OPERATOR'S PERSONAL PROTECTI E EQUIPMENT REQUIRED
Chainsaw safety helmet fitted
with mesh visor and
recommended ear defenders to
the appropriate specifications.
Work gloves with elasticated
wrist.
Close fitting heavy-duty
non-snag clothing.
Face mask if
appropriate.
DO NOT
wear rings, bracelets, watches,
jewellery or any other items that
could be caught in the material
and draw you into the shredder.
Steel toe cap safety boots.

GENERAL SAFETY MATTERS
D O ’ S A N D D O N ’ T S
DO NOT use shredder unless available light is
sufficient to see clearly.
DO NOT use or attempt to start the shredder
without the feed funnel, belt guard, guards and
discharge unit securely in place.
DO NOT start the shredder running unless
properly guarded.
DO NOT stand directly in front of the feed funnel
when using the shredder. Stand to one side.
DO NOT allow -
DO NOT smoke when
refuelling. Petrol/diesel fuel is
explosive!
DO NOT let anyone who has
not received instruction operate the machine.
DO NOT climb on the machine at any time.
DONOT handle material that is partially engaged
in the machine.
DO NOT touch any exposed wiring while machine
is running.
DO NOT use the shredder inside buildings.
- to enter the machine, as damage is likely.
ALWAYS stop the shredder engine before making
any adjustments, refuelling or cleaning.
ALWAYS check machine has stopped rotating and
remove shredder ignition key before maintenance
of any kind, or whenever the machine is to be left
unattended.
ALWAYS check machine is well supported and
cannot move.
ALWAYS run with the engine set to maximum
speed.
ALWAYS check (visually) for fluid leaks.
ALWAYS take regular breaks. Wearing personal
protective equipment for long periods can be
tiring and hot.
ALWAYS keep hands, feet and clothing out of feed
opening, discharge and moving parts.
ALWAYS use the next piece of material or a push
stick to push in short pieces. Under no
circumstances should you reach into the funnel.
ALWAYS keep the operating area clear of people,
animals and children.
ALWAYS keep the operating area clear from
debris build up.
ALWAYS keep clear of the discharge tube.
Foreign objects may be ejected with great force.
ALWAYS ensure protective guarding is in place
before commencing work. Failure to do so may
result in personal injury or loss of life.

Always be aware that what you are putting into the shredder must come out. f the shreds stop
coming out of the discharge tube but the shredder is taking material in - STOP MMED ATELY.
Continuing to feed material into a blocked machine may cause damage and will make it difficult to clear.
If the shredder becomes blocked, proceed as follows:
STOP the engine and remove the ignition keys.
REMOVE the discharge tube. Check that it is clear.
WEAR NGgloves, reach into the drum housing and scoop out the majority of the debris
causing the blockage.

REPLACE the discharge tube.
RESTART the engine and increase to full speed.
ALLOW machine time to clear excess shreds still remaining in drum housing before you
continue feeding brushwood. Feed in a small piece of wood while watching to make sure
that it comes out of the discharge. f this does not clear it, repeat the process and carefully
inspect the discharge tube to find any obstruction.
NOTE
Continuing to feed the shredder with brushwood once it has become blocked will cause the shredder
to compact the shreds in the drum housing and it will be difficult and time consuming to clear.
AVOID THIS SITUATION - WATCH THE DISCHARGE TUBE AT ALL TIMES.
CHECK that the shredder is running smoothly.
PERFORM the “before using the shredder”
tests (see pages 12/13).

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING Do not use or attempt to start the shredder without the protective
guarding and discharge unit securely in place. Failure to do so may
result in personal injury or loss of life.
Wood up to the recommended diameter can be fed into the feed funnel. Put the butt end in first and
engage it with the feed roller. The hydraulic feed roller will pull the branch into the machine quite quickly.
Large diameter material will have its feed rate automatically controlled by the no stress unit.
Sometimes a piece of wood that is a particularly awkward shape is too strong for the feed rollers to
break. This will cause the in-feed roller to either bounce up and down on the wood, or stall. f this
occurs, press the BLUE REVERSE button until the material has been released. Pull the material out
of the feed funnel and trim it so the shredder can handle it.
f the roller stops or suddenly slows down it may be that a piece of wood has become stuck behind the
roller. f this occurs, press the BLUE REVERSE button and hold for 2 seconds - then repress GREEN
FEED button. This should enable the roller to free the offending piece of material and continue
rotating at the correct speed. f the roller continues to stall in the 'forward feed' or 'reverse feed'
position push the RED STOP BAR, turn the engine off, remove the ignition key and investigate.
WARNING Do not reach into the drum housing with unprotected hands. There
are sharp edges and any small movement of the drum may cause
serious injury.

WARNING Refer to the battery safety section on pages 18-19.
SPARES
Timberwolf TW SX200 models are subject to large vibrations during the normal course of operation.
Consequently there is always a possibility that nuts and bolts will work themselves loose. t is
important that periodic checks are made to ensure the security of all fasteners. Fasteners should be
tightened using a torque wrench to the required torque (see below). Uncalibrated torque wrenches
can be inaccurate by as much as 25%. It is therefore essential that a calibrated torque wrench
is used to achieve the tightening torques listed below.
SER ICE INSTRUCTIONS
HANDLE hammers with extreme caution
to avoid injury. Gloves should always be
worn when handling the hammers.
THE drive belts should be connected
while changing hammers, as this will
restrict sudden movement of the drum.
THE major components of this machine
are heavy. Lifting equipment must be
used for disassembly.
CLEAN machines are safer and easier to
service.
AVO D contact with hydraulic oil and fuel.
Only fit genuine Timberwolf replacement screws and shredder spares. Failure to do so will
result in the invalidation of the warranty and may result in damage to the shredder, personal
injury or even loss of life.

and prevent from tilting so that no acid can
escape.
- Store in a cool and dry place.
- Do not remove the protective cap from the
positive terminal.
- Run a F FO (first in-first out)warehouse
management system.
2. Initial operation
- The batteries are filled with acid at a density of
1.28g/ml during the manufacturing process and
are ready for use.
- Recharge in case of insufficient starting power
(cf. section 4).
3. Installation in the vehicle and removal from
the vehicle
- Switch off the engine and all electrical
equipment.
