protected against splashing water, and may only be a
three-core cable which is connected to the protected
earth conductor.
16. Cables must be at least H05RNF to DIN 57282 Part
817/VDE 0282 Part 817 or be rubber hose cables,
and have a cross section of at least 1.5 mm
plug and coupling must be approved for use in the
open air. Keep the connection cable away from the
cutting tools.
C. Information about Safe Use
17. While using the machine, watch out for foreign
bodies. Do not put any stones, glass, iron, bones,
plastics, etc. in the machine as these can lead to
damage and kick back through the filler funnel.
Remove all blockages for the same reason.
18. Never reach into the space where the cutters are or
the ejector.
19. When switching on the machine and while working,
do not stand in front of the ejection opening.
Furthermore, there should not be any shredded
material in the machine.
20. While the machine is running, never stand with your
face or other parts of your body above the filler funnel
and in front of the ejector, never reach into the filler
funnel or ejection chute with your hands. There is
a significant risk of injury to your eyes, face and
fingers.
21. The cutting tools must be checked regularly for a
secure fit and for damage.
22. Before leaving the machine unattended, the motor
must always be switched off and the machine
disconnected from the mains. All moving parts must
come to a complete stop:
- before you undo any blockages or remove
blockages in the ejector chute.
- before you check, clean or carry out work on the
shredder.
- before you leave the shredder unattended.
23. If the shredder develops unusual noises or begins
to vibrate a lot, you must carry out an immediate
inspection. Ensure that you remember to wait for
the cutting tools after run to stop, this lasts for a few
seconds after switching off the motor.
24. Do not switch off the motor until the shredder is
completely empty. Otherwise problems can occur
when you restart the machine.
25. If the motor stops because of overload or insufficient
voltage, switch off the motor and leave it to cool for
3 to 5 minutes. Then press the circuit breaker and
switch the appliance back on again.
D. Servicing and Storage
26. Servicing and cleaning work may only be carried out
on the machine when the motor is switched off and
the plug has been disconnected from the mains.
27. Attention! There is a risk of cutting injuries when the
filler funnel is removed!
28. Only carry out servicing works which are described in
the instructions for use.
29. If components or safety equipment have been
removed in order to carry out servicing works, they
must be immediately and properly installed again as
soon as these works are finished.
30. Keep the shredder in a dry, secure place out of reach
of children.

2
1. Put the shredder's main housing on a level surface
with the handle pointing upwards. Insert the ends of
the trolley in the provided holes (Fig. 1). The trolley
must be put into the holes in such a way that the stand
is located below the ejection funnel. Caution: Do not
insert in the wrong way!
2. Fix it with the two screws (5) (Fig. 2).
3. Remove the locknuts from the provided axle and then
remove all parts that have been slid on the axle. Now
slide the axle into the provided holes of the trolley and
slide all parts on the axle as shown in Fig. 3 – on both
ends of the axle. The wheels must be put on in such
a way that the protruding wheel hub is located on the
inner side and the flat side on the outer side (Fig. 4).
Tighten the lock nuts firmly and finally push the wheel
caps onto the wheels.

Working with the Garden Shredder

Attention! Before starting up the machine,
familiarise yourself with its proper use by
carefully reading through the instructions for
use.
Attention! Before starting up the machine, you must
always check whether it has been properly closed.
• Connect the machine's connection cable to the gar-
den shredder. Before staring up, the machine's con-
nection cable must be checked for signs of damage
and may only be used in a perfect condition. Only
socket outlets with earthing contacts with a 16A safety
fuse are permitted to be used.
• Place the collection bag/basket directly under the
ejection chute.
• While working with the garden shredder you should
wear sensible clothing. This consists of closefitting
work clothes, firm gloves and heeled shoes with a
well-gripping sole. You should also wear safety gog-
gles and hearing protection!
• Press the switch B (Fig. 5) in position "I". Ensure that
there is no shredding material in the machine when
you switch it on.
• The garden shredder is equipped with an integrated
overload cut-out C (Fig. 5) that automatically switches
in case there is an overload or the cutting blade is
blocked. After the reason for the overload or blocking
has been removed and the device has sufficiently
cooled down, the shredder will be ready for operation
again. Push the overload cut-out to activate this
protection feature again. Only then switch on the device
using the mains switch.
• If the motor stops because of overload or insufficient
voltage, switch off the motor and leave it to cool for 3
to 5 minutes. Then press the no-volt switch and switch
the appliance back on again.
• To switch off, simply turn the switch knob B (Fig. 5) to
the Position "O". The integrated motor brake brings
the motor to a stop within a few seconds.
