ASSEMBLY
Always disconnect the plug from the
electric socket before assembly. Always
wear protective gloves to avoid injury.
LEGS
1. The legs are different on the left and right sides.
Check that the legs are assembled so that they
are angled outwards (fig. 1).
2. Thread the wheel axle through the holes in the
legs and through the tube (fig. 2).
3. Install the wheels on the wheel axle with wash-
ers, spacers and nuts (fig. 3). Do not tighten the
nuts yet.
4. Screw the mounting plate into the front holes on
the leg frame using washers and long screws
(fig. 4). Tighten properly.
5. Turn the motor housing upside down.
6. Insert the leg frame in the opening and ensure
that the front nut heads go down into the holes
in the motor plate.
7. Secure the leg frame to the machine with wash-
ers and long screws (fig. 5). Do not tighten the
screws yet.
8. Insert your hand in the discharge opening and
screw the short screw and the washer into the
hole (fig. 6). Tighten properly.
9. Tighten the long screws properly.
10.Turn the shredder and place it on a flat surface.
11.Tighten the wheels by putting your weight on
the other wheel (fig. 7). Screw each wheel ap-
proximately the same amount.
12.Press the wheel caps onto the wheels (fig. 8)
USING THE MACHINE
GENERAL
This machine is only intended for private use, not
to be used professionally.
The compost shredder is designed to shred organic
material such as dry plant residue, twigs, sticks and
branches.
TRANSPORT
Take great care during transport and when the
machine is to be lifted. Lift the machine by taking
a firm grip of the legs by the mounting to the motor
housing, under the compost shredder, and lift
carefully. Never lift the machine using the cover.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Only use the machine with the cable supplied with
your shredder.
If the cable is damaged, it must be replaced by an
authorised service dealer.
Connect the machine to a single phase electric
socket with a protective conductor (earth). The
electric circuit should be fused with a 10A inert
fuse.
You are recommended to use an earth leakage
circuit breaker which interrupts the current in the
event of something happening to the machine or
connection cable.
If a portable earth leakage circuit breaker is used,
it should always be placed between the electric
socket and the connection cable.
Even if an earth leakage circuit breaker is used,
safety cannot be guaranteed. Always follow the
safety instructions provided. Ideally wear shoes
with thick rubber soles.
Test the operation of the earth leakage circuit
breaker before each use.
In the event of unfavourable electrical mains
conditions, brief voltage drops can occur when you
start the apparatus which can affect other
appliances (e.g. causing lights to flicker).
With a mains impedance of Z
max
< 0,30+j0,19
ohm, such disturbances are unlikely.
STARTING THE MOTOR
Ensure that the shredder is empty
before starting the motor.
Start the motor by first turning the control
anti-clockwise and then turning on the
main switch (1) (fig. 9).
