HERKULES Schredder 4000 Profi Bedienungsanleitung Seite 8

Working system
• Soft material, leaves and twigs can be shreddered
directly in the main hopper.
• Thick material and branches must be fed using the side
hopper.
• Do not operate the machine unless the engine, or
electric motor, is running at full speed. Do not allow
the engine to labour but feed at a rate which allows it
to maintain rates speed throughout the operation cycle.
• Do not force material into the hopper as this could
overload the machine and cause damage not covered by
the warranty.
Main Hopper
Material fed into the main hopper, reaches the hammers
directly. Because of this only light weight material should
be fed in this way.
Important:
The hammer action generally pulls material through the
hopper without manual assistance. In the case of blockages
use the feeding tools supplied and under no circumstances
attempt to push it down manually.
Side Hopper (Branch-Cutter)
Use this for all long material and thick branches up to the
capacity limit of the machine. Do not force material in so
fast that the engine is forced to labour.
Cutting screen (optional)
This should only be used with dry material which is then
re-chopped until it is quite fine..
Important:
Never use this for damp material, which will otherwise
block up and jam it.
Note:
Damp material should be shreddered with the screen
folded down in the horizontal position.
Prevention of pile-up during ejection
Keep outlet clear. Always check that there is enough space
from outlet for the material being chopped.
The Shredder 4000 Profi is not a soil
processing machine
Do not shred earth, manure or compost in this unit.

Extract the hammer shaft from the left hand side of the
machine. Take care to keep the removed parts in order by
threading them on a wire or other bar so they can be
replaced in the correct sequence. After turning or replacing
the hammers, please assemble all the components in the
correct order. Refit the safety ring and secure with a new
location pin. Check for free rotation whenever the
