Setting the counter blade
The counter blade and the blade cylinder have
been ideally adjusted by the manufacturer. Re-ad-
justing the counter blade is only required if it be-
comes worn. For maximum performance, it is
necessary that the distance between the counter
blade and blade cylinder is about 0.50 mm.
• Turn the shredder on.
• Turn the adjustment wheel (5) clockwise until you
can hear slight grinding sounds.
• When turning the adjustment wheel (5) clockwise by
half a turn, the blade cylinder is positioned closer to
the counter blade by 0.50 mm.
WARNING: If the shredder blade touches the coun-
ter blade, it will be trimmed and small pieces of
swarf may fall out of the ejection opening. This
is not an error, but it has to be re-adjusted to the
required degree because otherwise the counter
blade will wear too early.
Overload protection
In the event of overload, e.g. due to branches that are
too thick, the equipment automatically switches off.
After a short cooling period (approximately 5 minutes),
press the reset switch (12).
10. Electrical connection
The electrical motor installed is connected and
ready for operation. The connection complies with
the applicable VDE and DIN provisions. The cus-
tomer's mains connection as well as the exten-
sion cable used must also comply with these reg-
ulations.
Damaged electrical connection cable
The insulation on electrical connection cables is often
damaged.
This may have the following causes
• Passage points, where connection cables are
passed through windows or doors.
• Kinks where the connection cable has been improp-
erly fastened or routed.
• Places where the connection cables have been cut
due to being driven over.
• Insulation damage due to being ripped out of the wall
outlet.
• Cracks due to the insulation ageing.
Such damaged electrical connection cables must not
be used and are life-threatening due to the insulation
damage.
28 | GB
Check the electrical connection cables for damage
regularly. Make sure that the connection cable does
not hang on the power network during the inspection.
Electrical connection cables must comply with the ap-
plicable VDE and DIN provisions. Only use connection
cables with the marking „H05VV-F".
The printing of the type designation on the connection
cable is mandatory.
AC motor
• The mains voltage must be 230 V~
• Extension cables up to 25 m long must have a
cross-section of 1.5 mm
Connection type X
If the mains connection cable of this product is dam-
aged, it must be replaced by a specially prepared
mains connection cable which can be obtained from
the manufacturer or its service department.
Connections and repairs of electrical equipment may

lectable connection point is not allowed.
• Given unfavorable conditions in the power supply
the product can cause the voltage to fluctuate tem-
porarily.
• The product is intended solely for use at connection
points that
a) do not exceed a maximum permitted supply im-
pedance "Z" (Zmax. = 0,3535 Ω), or
b) have a continuous current-carrying capacity of
the mains of at least 100 A per phase.
• As the user, you are required to ensure, in consulta-
tion with your electric power company if necessary,
that the connection point at which you wish to oper-
ate the product meets one of the two requirements,
a) or b), named above.
