9.1 Preliminary checks
Caution :
Before starting to shred, always run through the checkli st below.
Checkli s t
1. Check the oil level of the machine. (see § 11.3.1 Checking the oil level of the engine).
2. Ensure there is enough petrol in the tank. If necessary, fill up the tank with petrol.
(see Chapter 9.2 Filling up with petrol)
Check whether the air fil ter is not too dirty. (if considered necessary, see Chapter 11.3.3 Cleaning
the air fil ter)
4. Satisfy yourself that the shredding knives are firmly in place and in good condition. If
they need to be sharpened, this must be done first (Chapter 11.4.1).
If one detects cracks or fractures in a blade, this blade must be immediately renewed.
(see Chapter 11.4.2 Reversing and renewing the shredding knives).
For safety’s sake, tighten the balde bolts. (see the li st in annex for bolt torque loading)
5. Check whether all safety provisions on the machine still operate.
(see Chapter 7.2 Safety features).
Once these items have been checked and approved, you can prepare the area of operation (see
Chapter 9.3) and m ove the machine to the work site.
9.2 Filling up with petrol
Top up if the machine runs short of petrol. It’s a good idea to only use fresh petrol (see Appendix A).
Use lead-free petrol, preferably 98 or 99 octane. Any other fuels are prohibi ted. (read the engine
manual).
Warning :
Under certain conditions, petrol is highly flammable and extremely explosive. Fire
and explosion caused by petrol can result in serious burns or damage to
