6.4 Safety
The shredder has a safety switch (Fig. 9/Item C)
in its interior on the motor housing. The control
unit (release screw) (Fig. 9/Item 12) for it is loca-
ted on the loading funnel.
If the loading hopping is not perfectly position or
if it is not pressed against the motor housing, the
safety switch will trip and prevent the motor from
working. If this situation occurs, open the loading
funnel as described above. Carefully clean the
interior. Close the loading funnel again as descri-
bed above and ensure that when you switch on
the machine again the loading funnel is correctly
position and the safety screw is screwed right in.
CAUTION! NEVER undo the release screw
(Figure 1/Item 12) without fi rst switching off the
machine at the ON/OFF switch (Figure 1/Item 11)
and disconnecting the coupling on the machine
connection cable (extension) from the machine
plug.
When using the device the shredded material
debris box must be securely in its position and the
safety switch locked as shown in Fig. 7b.
7. Replacing the power cable
Danger!
If the power cable for this equipment is damaged,
it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its
after-sales service or similarly trained personnel
to avoid danger.
8. Cleaning, maintenance and
ordering of spare parts
Danger!
Always pull out the mains power plug before star-
ting any cleaning work.
8.1 Maintenance and storage
•
Clean the machine regularly. This will help to
keep the machine in good working order and
is the basis for a long working life.
•
Keep the vent slots clean while you work.
•
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.
•
Never clean the shredder by spraying with
water.
•
Prevent water getting inside the machine at
all cost.
•
Check the chassis securing screws from time
to time to ensure that they are tight.
•
If you do not intend to use the shredder for a
lengthy period, protect it from corrosion using
environmentally friendly oil.
•
Store the device in a dry room.
•
Store the device out of reach of children.
•
When you have finished your work, pull the
loading funnel forwards and clean the inside.
Use a brush to remove deposits from metal
parts on the inside. Apply a thin coating of oil
to the cleaned blade plate and blades.
•
When you close the loading funnel, make
sure that the safety switch and the release
screw are clean.
8.2 Replace, sharp and change blades
The blades on the blade plate are replaceable. If
you have to replace any blade, you must only use
genuine blades to ensure that they meet the rele-
vant quality and safety criteria.
Please note: For safety reasons we recommend
that you have all sharpening and blade replace-
ment work carried out by a specialist workshop.
Always wear heavy duty working gloves
•
Swing open the loading funnel (Fig. 8/Item 2)
by opening the release screw (Fig. 8/Item 12)
and remove it.
•
Undo the six Philips screws (Fig. 10a/Item D)
and remove the cover plate
•
Secure the rotary disk so that it cannot rotate
(for example by jamming it with a screwdriver,
see Figure 10b)
•
Undo the four blade screws (Fig. 10b/Item E)
and remove the blades (Fig. 10b/Item F)
•
Each of the blades can be turned once as
they are ground sharp on both ends. Then
they must be replaced by new blades.
To assemble, proceed in reverse order.
