b) Operation
Material suitable for shredding: Cut flowers, hedge trimmings, branches no more than 45 mm in dia-
meter.
You must not put glass, stones, metal or plastic in the shredder. you must therefore check that the plant
matter to be shredded does not contain any foreign objects.
If a foreign object accidentally gets into the shredder, stop it immediately, disconnect the spark plug
cable, inspect the machine and if necessary have repairs carried out by an approved service agent.
- Wait until the motor has reached its maximum speed. Only work when at maximum speed.
- Place plant matter in the plastic feeding chute, standing to the right of it to avoid any possible kickback
of material.
- make sure no-one is standing in the discharge zone.
- !!WARNING!! Never operate the shredder without the discharge pipe deflector (risk of projectiles and
possibility of coming into contact with the cutting assembly).
- Always give the shredder time to discharge plant matter before adding more (risk of jamming).
- If necessary remove a branch to allow the shredder to get back up to maximum speed.
- If the shredder has a tendency to swallow branches and then stall, hold them back slightly.
c) Tips
- Avoid shredding damp plant matter (risk of jamming).
- Avoid shredding very dry wood
(when harder it puts more stress on the blades).
- Ideal for large diameter freshly cut wood.
For very leafy branches, allow to dry out for 2 days.
- For easier operating conditions, always work with well-
sharpened blades.
