Residual risks Even if used properly, residual risks can exist even if the relevant safety regulations are complied with due to the design determined by the intended purpose. Residual risks can be minimised if the “Safety information” and the “Intended usage” as well as the whole of the operating instructions are observed. Risk of injury to the fingers and hands, if your hand grasps through an opening and reaches the blade unit. Risk of injury to the fingers and hands, when carrying out assembly work and cleaning on the blade unit. Injury by the chopped material spinning away near the hopper. Risk from electricity, by using non-standard electrical connections. Touching live parts of opened electrical components. Impairment of hearing when working on the machine for longer periods of time without ear protection. In addition, in spite of all the precautionary measures taken, non-obvious residual risks can still exist.

Safe working Before commissioning this product, read and keep to the following advice. Also observe the preventive regulations of your professional association and the safety provisions applicable in the respective country, in order to protect yourself and others from possible injury.

L L L Pass the safety instructions on to all persons who work with the machine. Keep these safety instructions in a safe place. Machine including safety cut-out The safety cut-out, including an automatic motor brake, which is attached to the shredder is used for the safety of the machine, preventing the motor being started when the machine is open and the rotating knives could be reached by the operator’s hand. Repairs on the safety cut-out must be done by the producer or by a company designated by the producer.

Make yourself familiar with the equipment before using it, by reading and understanding the operating instructions. Do not use the machine for unsuitable purposes (see 'Normal intended use' and 'Working with the garden shredder'). 12

Switch the machine off and remove the mains plug from the socket when − carrying out repair works − carrying out servicing and repair works, removal of faults − changing the blades − Transporting − leaving unattended (even during short interruptions) Check the machine for possible damage − Before continuing to use the machine, the protective devices must be inspected to ensure that they work perfectly and with their intended function − Check whether the parts are damaged. All parts must be correctly installed and fulfil all conditions to ensure perfect operation of the saw − Damaged guards and parts must be properly repaired or exchanged by a recognized, specialist workshop; insofar as nothing else is stated in the instructions for use. − Damaged or illegible safety warning labels should be replaced immediately.

Repairs to other parts of the machine must be carried out by the manufacturer or one of his customer service points. Use only original spare parts and accessories. Accidents can arise for the user through the use of other spare parts. The manufacturer is not liable for any damage or injury resulting from such action.

Start-up Check that the machine is completely and correctly assembled. To avoid toppling, place the chopper on a firm horizontal surface. Do not place the equipment on ground which is paved or surfaced with gravel. The machine should only be operated in the open. Always maintain a safe distance (at least 2 m) from walls or other fixed objects. Before using the shredder, make sure each time that − there are no faulty connections (tears, cuts, etc.) − there are no damage at the machine − all screws are tight

Design of the connection cable according to IEC 60245 (H 07 RN-F) with a core cross-profile section of at least − 1.5 mm2 for cable lengths up to 25m − 2.5 mm2 for cable lengths over 25m When laying the connecting attachments, be sure that they do get crushed or bent, and that the plugand-socket connection does not get wet. Do not use the cable for purposes for which it is not meant. Protect the cable against heat, oil and sharp edges. Do not use the cable to pull the plug from the socket. Regularly check the extension cables and replace them if they are damaged Do not use any defective connection cables When working outdoors, only use extension cables especially approved and appropriately labelled for outdoor use Do not set up any provisional electrical connections Never bypass protective devices or deactivate them.

Compare the voltage given on the machine model plate e.g. 230 V with the mains voltage and connect the machine to the relevant and properly earthed plug. Only use connection cables with sufficient diameters Fuse protection 2000 W 16 A

only UK / Switzerland 13 A inert

Electrical mains supply impedance When conditions in the electrical mains supply are unfavourable, voltage reductions for short periods can occur during the process of turning on the equipment, which can adversely affect other equipment (e.g., the flickering of a lamp). No breakdowns are to be expected if the maximum, electrical mains supply impedances given in the table are met.

The electrical connection or repairs to electrical parts of the machine must be carried out by a certified electrician or one of our customer service points. Local regulations – especially regarding protective measures – must be observed.

No: • glass, metal, plastic, plastic bags, stones, cloth, roots with soil, food left-overs, fish or meat.

Switching on Press the green 'I' button. The equipment will switch off automatically if there is a power cut (no-voltage release). Repress the green button to switch it on again.

Special informations on the chopping procedure: Branches, twigs and wood should be broken down immediately after they have been cut − material of this kinds gets very hard when it is dry, and it therefore makers sense to reduce the maximum branch diameters, so that it is ready for chopping. Remove any side shoots from branches with a large number of twigs. How to chop garden and kitchen waste with hight water content and a tendency to clog − to prevent the machine from clogging, alternate waste with wood containing material. Do not allow the chopped material to pile up too high in the area of the ejection opening. This can lead to shredded material blocking the ejection channel, and backing up to the filler opening. Clean out the filler opening and ejection channel thoroughly if the machine becomes blocked. Before doing this, switch the motor off and disconnect the machine from the mains power supply. Please do not exceed the maximum branch diameter specified for your appliance (∅ see p. 16). The blades largely pull the material into the machine by themselves. Strong branches may cause overloading. This can be avoided by pulling them back from time to time. If the machine is overloaded, a protective motor switch ensures that the machine turns itself off automatically − turn the shredder on again after about 5 minutes − during those five minutes you cannot turn the machine, see point „Operational faults“.

Switching off You can switch off the saw by pressing the red lower button of the switch Motor guard The motor is equipped with a guard switch and it switches off automatically when overloaded. The motor can be switched on again after a cooling-down period (approximately 5 min.). Repress the green button too.

Working with the garden chopper Choose a working position alongside the equipment or behind it. Never stand near the ejecting opening. Never reach into the filling or ejection opening. Keep your face and body away from the filling opening. Never place hands, other parts of the body or clothing into the filler funnel, ejection channel or in the vicinity of other moving parts. Check that no chopped residues are in the filling hopper before switching on the equipment. Do not tip or tilt the machine when the motor is running. When filling, be careful that no pieces of metal, stones, bottles or other objects unintended for processing, enter the filling hopper. Immediately switch off the equipment and allow it to come to a stop, if foreign objects enter the filling hopper or if the equipment starts to make unusual noises or vibrates. Remove the mains plug and carry out the following checks: − inspect for damage, − replace or repair damaged parts, − check the equipment and tighten loose parts. You must not repair the equipment yourself if you are unauthorized to do so. What can I chop? Yes: • organic household and garden waste e. g. hedge and tree cuttings, dead flowers and vegetable kitchen waste.

Maintenance and Care

Remove the mains plug before maintenance and care.

Remove the mains plug before maintenance and care.

Risk of injury to the fingers and hands when carrying out work on the blade unit. Wear protective gloves.
