Operational Faults - ATIKA ALF 2600 Originalbetriebsanleitung

Generally garden shredders require little maintenance. To maintain their efficiency and a long life, observe the following:
•
Keep vent slits clean and free from obstructions.
−
Check the locking screws (tighten where necessary).
−
Clean the device after shredding.
−
To clean your product only use a warm moist cloth and a soft brush.
Never use cleaning agents or solvents. Otherwise the device may be damaged irreversibly. Plastic parts may be corroded by
chemicals.
Do not clean the machine with running water or high-pressure cleaners.
−
After each operation treat bare metal parts with an environment-compatible biodegradable spray oil to protect them against cor-
−
rosion.
the cutting roller and shaving plate are expendable parts, though with normal use and correct adjustment they have a service life
−
of many years.
Before each fault elimination:
Switch off device.
−
Wait for standstill of the device.
−
Pull out mains plug.
−
