Check all the material you want to shred carefully. Make sure it
doesn’t contain any stones or nails as this might severely damage
the shredder.
Be aware of vibrations. Heavy vibrations are caused by damaged
or worn out blades. Store the shredder indoors in a dry place.
Adjusting the cutting gear
The anvil blade should be adjusted the have a distance of 0.5 to
1mm from the cutting blade. This distance should be kept to
guarantee effective operation of the shredder.
note:
Soft materials or wet twigs can get torn instead of cut
properly due to incorrect blade adjustment. Also a blunt anvil
blade from frequent use produces the same problem.
On the right hand side of the shredder you will find the blade
adjustment knob. To adjust the distance, turn the screw to the right.
1. For lighter material, you can cut through the material
completely turn the allen key clockwise half a turn.
2. If you are shredding heavy materials (such as harder or large
materials) they may need to be put through the shredder
twice, to crush the material before cutting it completely. To
loosen the adjusting screw, turn the knob anti-clockwise half
a turn.
3. After you have completed the adjustment, check if the blade
cuts efficiently. To avoid and damage to the shredder make
sure that the cutting blade does not come into contact with
the anvil blade.
NOTE.
1. Do not allow garden waste to accumulate before shredding
as it will begin to compost, become too damp and clog the
cutting assembly. Dry material will help most material to clear
the ejection chute. Save some dry sticks until last to help
clean the blade area.
2. Frequently monitor the build up/collection of shredded
material.
3. Do not allow shredded material to build up and fill the inside
of the shredders discharge chute.
4. When the collection box is full, press the On/Off switch to
turn the garden shredder Off before emptying.
