Care & Maintenance

English

Do not try to force branches in that are too large for the machine.

The blades tend to pull the branches into the shredder but finer material such as leaves may need to be pushed through with the plunger.

If the machine is overloaded, an overload protection switch will cut the shredder off-leave it for about 5 minutes and try again it should then start. (See Fig. 6)

Place the collecting bag, a bucket or small bin under the chute to collect the shredding in.

Do not put your hand inside the hopper, when necessory use the plunger.

After use, unplug the shredder and clean it inside and out.

All un-painted metal parts should be greased to prevent rusting.

When closing the shredder take care to remove all dirt and debris from the thread of the hole of the securing knob for the cover.

If the cover is not closed properly, the shredder will not start.

Take care not to cross-thread the bolt when the cover is being bolted down.

If shredding is not coming out of the chute, stop and unplug the shredder, remove the lid and clear the chute.
