Familiarise yourself with the sur-
roundings of your work ing
area. Check for possible risks
which might be not audible due
to the noise of the machine.
Only use the Shredder for the
purposes specified in these
instructions.
Make sure that there are no
other people (especially children)

Rotating tool! The tool does not
stop immediately after you have

Danger of trapping fingers!
Ensure that you have a secure
foothold when working. Keep
the mains cable away from the

der and to prevent fires starting,
keep the ventilation slits of the
motor free from particles of dirt.
The Shredder must not be tilted
or tipped when in operation.
Do not put stones, soil, glass,
textiles, plastics or metal parts
