• Caution: If the shredding material becomes jammed,
use the switch to change the rotational direction of the
cylinder (Fig.1, No.18) so it runs anti-clockwise.
• Make sure the shredder has completely shredded
the input material before adding new.
• Do not use your hands to push in more shredding
material. Use the special pushing device or other
shredding material.
• When you have finished working with the shredder,
turn it off and disconnect it from the mains.
Emptying the collection box
• Stop the shredder using the off button (Fig.1, No.7).
• Set the locking device (Fig.1, No.3) to the lowest
position.
• Pull out the collection box (Fig.1, No.2) and empty it.
• Re-insert the collection box (Fig.1, No.2) and push
the locking device (Fig.1, No.3) up again.
Setting the counter blade
The counter blade and the blade cylinder have been
ideally adjusted by the manufacturer. Re-adjusting
the counter blade is only required if it becomes
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 (Fig.1, No.9) clockwise
until you can hear slight grinding sounds.
• When turning the adjustment wheel (Fig.1, No.9)
clockwise by half a turn, the blade cylinder is positi-
oned closer to the counter blade by 0.50 mm.
WARNING: If the shredder blade touches the
counter 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 re-
quired 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 (Fig.1, pos 6)

Electrical connection

The electrical motor installed is connected and
ready for operation. The connection complies with
the applicable VDE and DIN provisions.
The customer's mains connection as well as the
extension cable used must also comply with these
regulations.
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.
Check the electrical connection cables for damage reg-
ularly. 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 2.5 mm .

Cleaning and maintenance

Leave all work not described in this manual to an
authorised customer service centre. Only use origi-
