• For safety reasons, the shredder will
not operate without a correctly at-
tached collector box ( A 2).
• Keep hold of branches while feeding
them into the shredder until they are
automatically drawn in.
• Be aware of the possible intake speed
of the cutter and do not overload the
equipment.
• Keep to the working speed of the
shredder and do not overload it.
• To protect the shredder from clogging,
shred wilted garden waste that has
been left for a few days and shred thin
twigs alternately with branches.
• Before you shred roots, remove any
remaining soil and stones from them
• Do not shred soft, damp material such
as kitchen waste, grass or leaves:
compost it directly.
• Keep a few dry branches for the end,
as they will help clean the shredder.
• Only switch the shredder off when all
of the shredding material has passed
through the cylinder. Otherwise, the cyl-
inder may jam the next time you switch
the shredder on.
Freeing up a jam

tion switch ( A 9) lock and turn the

Jammed chopping material is released.
The direction of rotation is to be changed
only until the chopping material is re-
leased.
• For stubborn blockages, the distance
of the pressure plate from the blade
cylinder can be increased by turning
the adjusting screw ( A 11) anticlock-
wise. To switch the device back on,
turn the operating mode selection
switch ( A 9). When the jammed chop-
ping material has been released, the
pressure plate must be readjusted by
turning the adjusting screw ( A 11)
clockwise.

Exceptionally, if this process fails
to remove the blockage, the follow-
ing option remains:
• Remove the four Allen screw (14) on
the housing plate (16).
• Take off the housing plate. This may
require light jerking movements, as
the housing plate also contains two
counter bearings.
• The blockage can now be removed
from the equipment.
• When replacing the housing plate
(16), ensure that it is positioned cor-
rectly. This is determined by the blade
shaft (18), pressure plate rod (17) and
four threads (15).
• Screw on the housing plate (16) firmly
with the four Allen screws (14).
