Tips
Large objects or woody pieces will be re moved after several operations in both cutting
and releasing directions.
Use a pusher or clearing hook to remove blocked objects from the feeding funnel and
ejection slot
DANGER! Do never try to loosen blocked objects with your hands! Do
never touch the feeding hopper or the discharge chute when the machine
is plugged in!
Caution! Always wait for the shredder to become idle before switching it
on again.
Longer material standing out from the shredder could lash out when
being drawn in by the cutting blade. Please keep at safe distance!
Don’t push hardware into the shredder

Overload protection
When the shredder is blocked by objects such as branches., it will automatically switch
to reverse to release the blocked material.
After 5 seconds, the shredder will stop automatically.
To continu working, re-
press ‘forward’.
If it’s still blocked you can try above procedure again.
In case it is still blocked and still switches to reverse or does not turn at all anymore,
first perform paragraph “adjusting the anvil distance” and try reverse run to free the
blocked material.
