unfavourable power supply conditions.
In this case, appropriate steps should be
taken (e.g. connection to a different circuit
than the one used by the affected device,
or operation of the machine using a circuit
with a lower impedance).
Working:
Risk of injury!
Never place your hands or feet
above, underneath or on rotating
parts.
When the machine is running, never put
your face or any other part of your body
above the feed chute or in front of the
ejection opening. Always keep you head
and body away from the feed opening.
Never put your hands or any
other part of your body or
clothing into the feed chute or
ejection chute. There is a
considerable risk of injury to eyes, face,
fingers, hands etc.
Always maintain your balance and firm
footing. Do not stretch forward.
If the machine falls over during operation,
immediately switch off the motor and
disconnect the mains plug.
Risk of injury:
Shredding material may be ejected back
up during operation. Always wear safety
glasses and keep your face away from the
feed opening.
Never tilt the machine when the engine or
motor is running.
Make sure that there is no shredding
material blocking the ejection chute, as
this could result in a poor shredding
performance or kickbacks.

When feeding the garden shredder, pay
particular attention to ensuring that no
foreign objects such as bits of metal,
stones, plastic, glass, etc. get into the
shredding chamber as this could result in
damage or kickbacks from the feed chute.
Remove blockages for the same reason.
Kickbacks can occur when feeding the
garden shredder with branch material.
Wear gloves.
Beware of the cutting tool
running on for several seconds
before coming to a standstill.
Switch off the motor, disconnect
the mains plug and allow all
rotating tools to reach a complete standstill
– before leaving the machine unattended
– before repositioning, lifting, carrying,
tilting, pushing or pulling the machine
– before transporting the machine
– before removing blockages
– before checking or cleaning the
machine or before carrying out any
other work on it.
If foreign objects get into the cutting tool or
if the machine makes unusual noises or
vibrates in an unusual way, switch off the
motor immediately and allow the machine
to come to rest. Disconnect the mains plug
and perform the following steps:
– check the machine for damage and
have any necessary repairs carried out
by a technician before restarting and
working with the machine.
– Have damaged parts replaced or
repaired by a technician; the parts must
be of similar quality.
Remove the transparent shredder box and
empty if it is completely full of shredding
material or if the filling level is preventing
shredding material from being ejected.
Before removing the shredder box, switch
off the machine and wait until the blade
roller has come to a standstill.

4.7 Maintenance and repairs

Before carrying out any

maintenance operations

(cleaning, repair, etc.) and
before checking whether the electric cable
is entwined or damaged, park the machine
on firm, level ground, switch off the motor
and disconnect the mains plug.
Leave the machine to cool down for
approx. 5 minutes before performing any
maintenance operations.
The power cable must only be repaired or
replaced by authorised electricians.
Components or guards that are removed
for maintenance operations must be
properly reinstalled immediately.

The complete machine must be cleaned
thoroughly following use. (
Never use high-pressure cleaners and do
not clean the machine under running water
