앬 Entangled branches and leaves should be tho-
roughly shredded before loading any more materi-
al.
앬 Do not allow the discharge opening to become
clogged with shredded material – risk of pile-ups.
앬 Do not cover the ventilation slits.
앬 Do not place heavy material or thick branches into
the machine continuously. This may cause the
blade to jam.
앬 Use a plunger or hook to remove jammed objects
from the funnel or discharge openings.
Important: The material will be crushed, mashed
and shredded by the cutting unit, thus accelerating
the decomposition process for composting.
6.7. Emptying the shredded material debris box
The level of material in the shredded material debris
box can be checked by looking through the slots on
the side of the cover.
Always empty the shredded material debris box in
good time to prevent it from overfilling.
To empty it, proceed as follows:
앬 Switch off the device at the ON/OFF switch.
앬 Release the shredded material debris box. To do
so, press the safety switch (Fig. 12/Item A) down.
앬 Take the shredded material debris box out at the
front.
6.8 Adjusting the counter blade (Fig. 14)
The counter blade and cutting unit are perfectly
adjusted at the factory. Only if it suffers wear does
the counter blade require adjustment (switch the
machine on for this purpose). To ensure the best
possible results from your shredder, the gap between
the counter blade (item B) and the shredding blade
(item A) should be approx. 0.50 mm.
There is an adjustment device on the right-hand side
of the plastic housing for this purpose. Turn the knob
clockwise so that the screw (item C) moves towards
the shredding blade. After a half-turn the counter
blade will have moved 0.50 mm closer to the
shredding blade. After completing this adjustment
check whether the blade produces the desired
results.
CAUTION! Be careful not to adjust the blade until it
touches the counter blade as this will damage the
blade.
7. Maintenance and storage
앬 Clean the machine regularly. This will help to keep
the machine in good working order and is the
basis for a long working life.
앬 Keep the vent slots clean while you work.
앬 Clean the plastic body and other plastic parts with
a mild household cleaning agent and a damp
cloth. Do not use any aggressive agents or
solvents for cleaning purposes.
앬 Never clean the shredder by spraying with water.
앬 Prevent water getting inside the machine at all
cost.
앬 Check the chassis securing screws from time to
time to ensure that they are tight.
앬 If you do not intend to use the shredder for a
lengthy period, protect it from corrosion using
environmentally friendly oil.
앬 Store the device in a dry room.
앬 Store the device out of reach of children.
8. Waste disposal
Accessories and packaging should be disposed of in
an environment-friendly fashion, i.e. by taking them
to a recycling depot. Plastic parts are coded for
purposes of separation when recycling.
