Intended Use

The product is intended for cutting of fibrous and woody garden waste for composting.

When operating the machine with a generator, a unit with a power rating of 4kVA is necessary.

For Your Safety

Warning! Switch off, remove plug from mains before adjusting, cleaning or if cable is cut, damaged or entangled.

The blades continue to rotate for a few seconds after the machine is switched off.

Caution - do not touch rotating blades.

Electrical Safety

Your machine is double insulated for safety and requires no earth connection. The operating voltage is 230V AC, 50Hz (for non-EU countries 220V , 240V as applicable). Only use approved extension cables. Contact your service agent for details.

Extension cords/leads should only be used if they comply with H05VV-F or H05RN-F types.

If you want to use an extension cable when operating your product, only the following cable dimensions should be used:

• 1.0mm^2 : max length 40 m
• 1.5mm^2 : max length 60 m
• 2.5 mm²: max length 100 m

It is recommended for increased electrical safety to use a Residual Current Device (RCD) with a tripping current of not more than 30mA . Always check your RCD every time you use it.

The couplings of connection leads must be protected against splashes and the coupling sockets on the leads must be made of rubber or coated with rubber.

Fixing means for the connection leads must be used.

The connection lead must be inspected for signs of damage at regular intervals and may only be used if in perfect condition.

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a Bosch Service Centre.

Products sold in GB only: Your machine is fitted with an approved 13 A (BS 1363/A) electric plug and is protected by a 13 A fuse (ASTA Approved to BS 1362).

If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its place.

The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a possible shock hazard and should never be inserted into a 13 A socket elsewhere.

Assembly

A Remove the machine from the package.
Mount the wheels and the undercarriage.
Fit the Allen key 12 as shown.

Starting and Stopping

The blade continues to rotate for a few seconds after the machine is switched off. Allow the motor/blade to stop rotating before switching "on" again. Do not rapidly switch off and on.

Starting:

To start your Shredder, rotate the On/Off switch 2 from position "0" to position "1". Allow machine to start and release switch, which will return to position "1" (the normal run position).

Important note: The machine will not start if the On/Off switch 2 is pushed in slightly, whilst being rotated.

As a safety feature the machine will not start unless the hopper securing knob 3 is fully tightened.

Stopping:

Rotate the On/Off switch 2 to position "0".

Note: The blade will stop automatically before the cover 11 can be removed.

Emergency Stop:

Press the On/Off switch 2.

Restart Protection

After a mains failure, or if the product cuts out due to overloads, the machine cannot restart on its own when the power returns or when protector resets.

To restart the machine:

Set the On/Off switch 2 to "0".

Rotate the On/Off switch 2 to position "I", allow the machine to start and release the switch. It will now move to position "I" (the normal run position).

Important note: The machine will not start if the On/Off switch 2 is pushed in slightly, whilst being rotated.

Overload Protection

Overloading (e. g. blocking up of the cutter) can lead to a standstill of the machine after a few seconds. After a short period, the machine can be switched on again. If the machine blocks again turn it off.

Remove blockage (see "Removing blockage"), and restart.

Shredding

In order to collect the chopped material, fasten the carrying straps of the collecting bag 7 (accessory) to the two hooks 9 while the shredder is switched off.

Feed the material to be chopped through the feed intake.

Longer material standing out from the machine could lash out when being cut! Small pieces of shredded material may be ejected from the feed intake. Ensure eye protection, protective gloves and ear protection are used when using the machine.

Only insert as much material so that the feed intake 1 will not be blocked up.

Do not fill soft waste such as kitchen rubbish into the shredder but compost directly.

Take care that the chopped material can fall freely from the discharge chute 8 - danger of backing up!

The ventilation slots 5 must not be covered by the collecting bag or the chopped material.

Avoid blocking the discharge chute 8 with shredded material as this could result in kickback of material through the feed intake opening.

Removing Blockage

Stop and remove plug from the power supply.

After fully unscrewing the securing knob 3, remove cover 11 and clean the blade area. If debris is compacted in the blade area, remove with a wooden or plastic implement. Also clean the discharge chute 8 of any debris.

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 after they have been cut.

The use of the prodder 13 will help with the feeding of soft material.

Soft garden waste should be shredded in smaller loads, particularly when wet.

Any blockages can be avoided by intermittently shredding branches.

Maintenance

Stop and remove plug from the power supply.

Note: To ensure long and reliable service, carry out the following maintenance regularly.

Regularly check for obvious defects such as loose, dislodged or damaged blade, loose fixings, and worn or damaged components.

Check that covers and guards are undamaged and correctly fitted. Carry out necessary maintenance or repairs before using.

If the machine should happen to fail despite the care taken in manufacture and testing, repair should be carried out by an authorised customer service agent for Bosch garden products.

For all correspondence and spare parts orders, always include the 10-digit part number (TYP) from the nameplate of the machine!

Blade Maintenance

Stop and remove plug from the power supply.

The blade has a double sided cutting edge.

When the cutting edges become blunt, the blade can be turned over. When both sides are blunt replace the blade.

Use the following procedure to remove, turnover or replace the blade:

1 Unscrew securing knob 3.
2 Remove cover 11 as shown in fig. E.

Wearing a pair of garden gloves (not supplied) turn the blade 13 so that it aligns with the markings on the reaction plate 17.

Insert a screw driver into the hole 14 to lock the drive.
Use the allen key 12 to remove the blade bolt 16, and the blade washer 15.

Remove the blade 13 by lifting and sliding downwards as shown in fig. E

Fit the blade, blade washer and the blade bolt.

Only use a Bosch approved blade bolt.

Tighten the bolt firmly (tightening torque 12 Nm).

Ensure that the allen key 12 and screw driver are removed, also ensure that the cover 11 and securing knob 3 are fitted before attempting to turn the machine on.
