GENERAL USE

WARNING!

NEVER ATTEMPT TO PUT YOUR HAND INSIDE

THE SHREDDER INLET CAVITY. IF YOU WANT TO

PUSH MATERIAL INTO THE CUTTING CHAMBER

USE A SUITABLE STRONG STICK!

• Before starting the machine, look into the feeding

chamber to make certain that it is empty.

• Keep your face and body away from the feed inta-

ke opening.

• Do not allow hands or any other part of the body

or clothing inside the feeding chamber, discharge

chute, or near any moving part.

• Keep proper balance and footing at all times.

Do not overreach. Never stand at a higher level

than the base of the machine when feeding material

into it.

• Always stand clear of the discharge zone when

operating this machine.

• When feeding material into the machine be extre-

mely careful that pieces of metal, rocks, bottles,

cans or other foreign objects are not included.

• If the cutting mechanism strikes any foreign objects

or if the machine should start making any unusual

noise or vibration, shut off the power source and

allow the machine to stop (electric unit disconnect

from supply):

•inspect for damage

• check for and tighten any loose parts

• have any damaged parts replaced or repaired

with parts having equivalent specifications

• Do not allow processed material to build up in the

discharge zone; this may prevent proper discharge

and can result in kickback of material through the

feed intake opening.

•If the machine becomes clogged, shut-off the

power source (electric unit disconnect from sup-

ply) before clearing debris. Keep the power source

clear of debris and other accumulations to prevent

damage to the power source or possible fire.

Remember that operating the starting mechanism

on engine powered machines will still cause the

cutting means to move.

• Keep all guards and deflectors in place and in good

working condition

• Do not tamper with the power source governor

settings; the governor controls the safe maximum

operating speed and protects the power source

and all moving parts from damage caused by over-

speed. Seek authorised service if a problem exists.

• Do not transport this machine while the power

source is running.

• Shut off the power source and disconnect from

supply whenever you leave the work area.

• Do not tilt the machine while the power source is

running.

Your shredder must be placed on firm, level ground.

Never lay the shredder on its back, front or sides -

keep it upright at all times.

Do not overload the shredder - feed it slowly and let

it work at its own pace.

Before use, ensure the inlet cavity is empty. Do not

start the shredder with material in the shredder.

Unless there is an emergency, do not switch the

shredder off until it is completely empty of material.

Remove stones or other hard objects from plant roots

before shredding.

4 Ferm

60 Ferm

Hold large twigs or fine branches firmly when feeding

them into the shredder.

Do not allow the outlet to get covered or blocked at

any time (see ‘Blockages).

BLOCKAGES (fig. 2)

If your shredder gets blocked up at any

time, switch it off at the mains and remove

the plug from the power socket.

Turn the hood knob anti-clockwise until the hood

become loose. Pull it up and away from you to reveal

the inside of the shredder. Clear any blockages, (be

careful not to touch the sharp blades, replace the hood

and re-tighten by turning the hood knob fully clockwi-

se.

Changing a blade

If you suspect your blades need replacing, switch the

shredder off at the mains and remove the plug from

the power socket.

Turn the hood knob anti-clockwise until the hood

become loose. Pull it up and away from you to reveal

the inside of the shredder.

The blades have two edges so they can be turned

around to make use of the unused edge of the blade.

If this has already been done you will need to order

new blades.

Contact your local dealer for new blades.

MAINTENANCE

These appliances are designed to function without dif-

ficulty for a long time and to require minimum mainte-

nance. You will prolong the appliance’s life by cleaning

it regularly and using it correctly.

• When the machine is stopped for servicing, inspec-

tion, or storage, or to change an accessory, shut off

the power source (electric unit disconnect from

supply), make sure that all moving parts have come

to a complete stop and, where a key is fitted remo-

ve the key. Allow the machine to cool before

making any inspections, adjustments, etc.

• When servicing the cutting means be aware that,

even though the power source will not start due to

the interlock feature of the guard, the cutting means

can still be moved by a manual starting mechanism.

Cleaning

Clean the housing regularly with a soft cloth, prefera-

bly every time it is used. Keep the air vents free of dust

and dirt. Remove stubborn dirt with a soft rag moiste-

ned in soapy water. Do not use any solvents such as

petrol, alcohol, ammonia, etc. as such substances can

damage the plastic parts.
