8.4 Working area for operator
● For safety reasons, the operator
must stay within the working area
(grey area X) for the entire operating
period (while the motor is switched on
or the engine is running), particularly in
order to prevent injuries due to
shredding material that is ejected
backwards.
8.5 Correct machine load
The load on the motor or engine of the
garden shredder must never cause the
speed to drop significantly. Always feed
the garden shredder continuously and
steadily. If the speed drops when working
with the garden shredder, stop feeding the
machine in order to relieve the load on the
motor or engine.
8.6 Overload protection
If an overload of the motor occurs during
operation, the built-in overload protection
device automatically switches off the
motor.
The garden shredder can be started up
again after a cooling period of
approx. 10 minutes. Frequent triggering
of the overload protection may be
attributable to the following causes:
– Unsuitable electric cable (
– Power overload
– Machine overloaded due to excessive
quantities of shredding material or blunt
blades

8.7 If the cutting unit of the garden
shredder is blocked
9
If the cutting unit of the garden shredder
becomes blocked during shredding,
immediately switch off the motor and
disconnect the power cable. Then remove
the feed chute and eliminate the cause of
the fault.
8.8 Feeding the garden shredder
Soft material:
● Feed organic plant trimmings
such as fruit and vegetable waste,
flower cuttings, leaves, thin branches,
etc. into large rectangular opening (1).
Hard material:
Cut up thick branches and
branches with numerous side
shoots beforehand using loppers.
● Feed tree and hedge cuttings and
branch material slowly into the STIHL
cloverleaf opening (2), guiding it along
the right chute wall to the blade unit.
The hard material is automatically
drawn in by the machine.
9. Safety devices
10.1)
9.1 Motor restart inhibitor
The machine can only be started via the
switch and not by plugging the electric
cable into the mains socket.
9.2 Safety interlock
The motor/shredding tool may only be
operated when the feed chute has been
properly closed. If the right closure screw
(machine viewed from the front) becomes
loose during operation, the motor is
switched off automatically and after a few
seconds the shredding tool comes to a
standstill.
9.3 Motor run-down brake
10
The motor run-down brake shortens the
run-down time from when the machine is
switched off until the blades stop to a few
seconds.
9.4 Protective covers
The garden shredder is equipped with
protective covers in the feeding and
ejection areas. These include the
complete feed chute with the upper chute
and splash guard, the ejection chute
extension and the discharge flap.
The protective covers ensure that a safe
distance is maintained from the shredding
blades.
