Each time before starting maintenance work:
−
Switch off the motor and pull out the mains plug.
−
Wear protective gloves to prevent injury.
The cutters will not come to a standstill immediately after
cut-off. Before starting any service work wait until all parts
are stationary.
Be sure to have removed any tools from the machine after
completion of service work.
•
Generally garden shredders require little maintenance. To
maintain their efficiency and a long life, observe the fol-
lowing:
−
Keep vent slits clean and free from obstructions.
−
Check the locking screws (tighten where necessary).
−
Clean the device after shredding.
To clean your product only use a warm moist cloth and a soft
brush.
Never use cleaning agents or solvents. Otherwise the device
may be damaged irreversibly. Plastic parts may be corroded
by chemicals.
−
Do not clean the machine with running water or high-pressure
cleaners.
After each operation treat bare metal parts with an environment-
compatible biodegradable spray oil to protect them against corro-
sion.
