Caution:
If long branches are fed into the machine there is a risk that they will whip
and thrash around – keep a safe distance.
• Feed the material to be shredded into the right-hand side of the hopper mouth.
• Do not overload the shredder or clog the hopper by feeding in too much material
at once.
• To avoid the unit clogging up, mix freshly cut branches or leafy material with drier
materials such as twigs.
• Kitchen waste and soft materials must not be fed into the shredder.
• Let branches with lots of twigs and leaves feed all the way into the hopper before
attempting to feed in any more material.
• Make sure to empty the collection box before it becomes full to prevent
the material in the box from hindering new material from passing through.
• Keep the motor housing ventilation slots free from debris.

cleaning operations.
