Putting Into Operation - Scheppach biostar 2000 Originalanleitung

• Cuts resulting from being run over
• Insulation damages caused by pulling the cable out
of wall sockets.
• Cracks resulting from aging of the insulation.
Such insulation damaged electrical connection ca-
bles cannot be used and are, as a result of their insu-
lation damage. LIFETHREATENING!!
Check the electrical cable connections on a regular
basis. When checking the cables, make sure that the
cables are not stuck to the electrical network.
Electrical cable connections built with seal contacts
must meet the relevant VDE and DIN requirements.
Only use electrical cable connections with a rating of
at least H 07 RN or a rubber sheathed cable.
The type rating of the connection cable must be print-
ed on the cable.
Single-phase motor
• The single-phase motor turns in the direction
shown in Fig. C.
• The mains voltage must comply with the specifica-
tions on the motor nameplate.
• Extension cables up to 25 m in length must have a
cross section of at least 1,5 mm² , above 25 m at
least 2,5 mm²
• Mains fuse protection is 10 Amps slow-blow.
In accordance with safety regulations, the motor is
equipped with a switch featuring an integrated pro-
tective circuitbreaker, which cuts off the current in the
event of overload.
Overload may be caused by the following:
• longer-duration blockage of the knife disc
• alternately switching on/off of the motor in rapid
succession In the event of a blocked knife disc,
remove the cause to the overload. Disconnect the
mains plug.
After a short cooling-off time , switch back on the
motor.

Putting into operation

Observe safety notes before putting into operation.
The machine may only be operated with fully mount-
ed protection and infeed system.
Starting protection, Fig. B
Your BIOSTAR can only be started when the top of
the housing is correctly closed.
The butterfly nut is simultaneously the nut which fas-
tens the upper and lower housing unit together and
the security nut for the starting safeguard.
In tightening the butterfly nut to the stud (1), contact is
made to the circuit breaker and the circuit closer. The
motor starts when the on-button is pressed.
If the butterfly nut is not quite screwed in or the hous-
ing is open, the electric circuit is interrupted by the
starting safeguard. In pressing the on-button, the mo-
tor should not start.
Switching on/off
• The machine can be switched on by pressing the
button to „I".
• In order to switch the machine off again, press the
button to „0".

Motor braking unit
The BIOSTAR is fitted with an automatic motor brak-
ing unit which becomes effective as soon as the driv-
ing motor is switched off.
Operating instructions
Excellent work results require wellsharpened blades.
Please note:
Dull blades reduce cutting capacity and impair work
performance!
Reduced intake is a certain sign for dull blades.
The motor overheats and it triggers the overload pro-
tection.
See maintenance for the changing and sharpening of
blade.
Infeed of material to be chopped, Fig. E
Always switch on the motor first!
• We recommend: Wear work gloves, goggles and
ear protection.
• Watch for stones and earth when collecting the
material.
• Do not put hard objects such as stones, glass,
metal parts etc. into your garden shredder.
• Earth wears the cutting blades down fast and
should therefore be removed from the material.
• Do not put roots with adhering earth into your gar-
den shredder.
• Wood such as tree cutting etc. requires sharp
blades and should be shredded separatly to pro-
long the service life of the knives.
• Feed branches in thick end first and push them
onto the downstroke part of the knife disc if pos-
sible (kickback).
• Pull the material back forcefully, counteracting the
automatic pull of the machine, in order to avoid kill-
ing the motor when the speed reduces.
• Freshly cut wood requires less force, so large di-
ameter cuttings can be shredded easily.
• Hedge cuttings must be fed in gradually. Some
types tend to jam. Push them in with a long piece
of wood.
• Shrubs tend to be woody and require sharp blades.
• Bark is easy to shred when damp. We recommend
gradual shredding.
• If you want finer shredded results, put the shred-
ded material back into the shredder a second time.
• Paper should be shredded damp and rolled up.
Remove the metal staples from cardboard boxes.
• Vegetable waste is normally easy to shred, but may
stick due to moisture.
• It is best to save some dry material for the final run.
It absorbs the moisture in the machine and cleans
the inside of the housing.
• Important: Remove remaining waste from the ma-
chine after finishing work. Caution: PULL ELEC-
TRIC PLUG
• To start up the machine again after an interruption
of work, the blade housing has to be cleared of
shredded material.
• DO NOT SPRAY DOWN WITH WATER!
