A. Going down a slope:
Always point the hopper of the machine towards the bottom of the slope so that it descends
in reverse.
Warning:
On steeper slopes, the machine may pick up speed on its own due to
its own weight. This may result in losing control over the speed of the machine.
As soon as you notice this happening, quickly turn the handle in the opposite
direction to slow down the machine and regain control over its speed.
Always remain alert and focused on what you are doing! Ensure that there is enough free
space at the bottom of the slope (at least 3x the length of the machine).
B. How to move the machine in the event of engine failure:
The wheels/tracks are driven by the oil pressure created by the hydraulic pump. This pump
is powered by the engine. If the engine is not running, the hydraulic power will not function
either. External force can be used to push or pull the machine forwards or backwards. Ho-
wever, this requires the circulation of oil in the wheel motors. To make this happen, turn the
driving handle in the same direction in which you wish to move the machine.
In the Cross Country version with tracks, you will encounter greater resistance. The pulling
or pushing force will need to be significant in order to move the machine. As such: try first to
repair the engine on site to move it properly instead of hauling it away.
9.6. Working with the machine
9.6.1. Before you start working
• Wear proper clothing, protective gloves and other accessories as instructed in this manual. See
“7.3. Safety precautions”, page 20.
• A good gardener should plan out their work and be well-organised. This will enable you to have
perfect control over your work and to avoid accidents.
• The waste to be shredded should be systematically sorted before commencing the work: big
branches, small branches, leaves and any damp objects. Ensure that the material does not
contain any foreign objects.
• Do not use the machine in an enclosed or poorly-ventilated space. Otherwise, there is a serious
risk of being poisoned by the toxic exhaust fumes from the engine.
• Always shred at full throttle.
• The parking brake should be set as soon as the machine is in the work area.
