3 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
3.1 Intended use
The machine is intended for the shredding of
twigs and branches from trees and bushes with a
maximum diameter of 40 mm.
This trailer is intended solely for use in non-com-
mercial applications. Any other use (as well as
unauthorised conversions or add-ons) are re-
garded as contrary to the intended use and will
result in exclusion of the warranty as well as loss
of conformity (CE mark); the manufacturer will
thus decline any responsibility for damage and/or
injury suffered by the user or third parties.
P40: continuous operation with interruptions
The appliance can be operated continuously but
with regular interruptions at high loads. If it is op-
erated for too long at high loads, the overload

ance has been tested and approved for operation
at full load for 40 s followed by an idling time of
60 s.
