Working Advice

Wear eye protection, hearing protection
and safety gloves at all times while operat-
ing the machine.
Always check before use that the collection
box and chute assembly are fitted correct-
ly.
The machine is fitted with sensors, unless the
collection box 11 is fitted correctly and the
chute assembly 8 is correctly positioned, the
machine will not start and the buzzer beeps (on
AXT 23 TC/25 TC also the 2 LEDs 14 flash).
Insert the material to be shredded. The material
will be fed by the cutter roller 16 without further
assistance.
Longer material standing out from the ma-
chine could lash out when being pulled in by
the knives! Please keep at safe distance!
– Only insert as much material so that the
chute assembly 8 will not be blocked up.
– Shred withered, moist material and garden
waste which has been stored for some days
alternately with branches.
This prevents the cutting roller 16 from clog-
ging.
– Do not fill soft waste such as kitchen rubbish
into the shredder but compost directly.
– Take care that the shredded material can fall
freely from the discharge chute – danger of
backing up!
– The ventilation slots 3 must not be covered
by the shredded material.
– Avoid blocking the discharge chute with
shredded material as this could result in kick-
back of material through the chute assembly
8 opening.
Advice on Shredding
Branches become harder to shred depending on
the type, age and dryness of the wood.
For best results, shred fresh branches soon af-
ter they have been cut.
Soft garden waste should be shredded in small-
er loads, particularly when wet. Any blockages
can be avoided by intermittently shredding
branches.

Pressure Plate Adjustment
The pressure plate 15 is factory adjusted and
does not require adjustment before the first
use.
Adjustment of the pressure plate 15 is neces-
sary as a result of wear (shredded material, e. g.
branches, hangs together as a chain and is not
properly cut through).
With the motor running, turn the adjustment
knob 10 a small amout at a time in a clock wise
direction until a light grinding sound can be
heard (the cutting roller 16 cuts the pressure
plate 15 to the proper clearance, and some
small aluminium shavings fall out of the ejection
chute).
Readjust only to the required extent, otherwise
the pressure plate 15 could wear unnecessarily.
