● Damaged or buckled blades (very likely to break during operation) should not be used.
● Always wear work gloves to protect your hands while replacing worn blades/ham-
mers.
● Strictly ask a skilled licensed electrician for any intervention on the electric system.

med or skewed branched/sticks inside the hopper or the side spout. Ne-
ver reach with your hands inside the hopper or side infeed spout when
the machine is running.
Never attempt to remove a jammed piece of wood or material before
disconnecting/unplugging the machine from the power and before the
cutting tools (blades and hammers) have come to a complete stop.
● Do not try to defeat or override any safety features. Never operate the
machine without its protection safeties.
● Do not provide any additional customised protections or tools on board of
the machine, other than the ones designed and supplied by the manufac-
turer.
● Strictly use original spare parts of the manufacturer.

Mandatory application field
Garden shredders are designed to reduce brush, stalks, tree-bark and gar-
den waste to fine particle size. All other applications are forbidden and
considered as “misuse”. Make sure that no foreign matter (nails, screws,
stones or alike) in or on wooden material gets trapped in the machine.
This machine is not suitable for chipping stones, metals and glass,
plastic ropes/lines and other similar workshop material. Grass
and vignards waste should be stored for at least one week before
shredding.
This shredder can handle up to 65 mm diameter branches through the side
infeed spout and up to maximum 50 mm diameter in the upper hopper.
This machine is one-man operation only. Never use the machine indoor. It
is strictly designed for outdoor or very well aerated places.
Any other use or shredding method is considered by the
manufacturer as “misuse”. In case of misuse the manufacturer will
not be liable for any injuries or damages and the operator will be
held entirely responsible.
Misuse will immediately void your warranty!
