Original accessory equipment to be used only.
Do not wear any loose clothing, long laces and ties.

surface.
Never use the machine on a paved and gravel
surface. Any thrown-off material may cause injuries.
Before putting the machine into operation, check all
screws, nuts and other fixing parts if tightened and check
all the protective equipment if fitted properly. Replace any
damaged or illegible warning and information plates.
Before starting the machine, make sure the feeding hopper
is empty.
Keep your face and body beyond feeding hopper reach.
Prevent your hands, other body party and clothing
from getting near the feeding hopper and ejection hole. To
insert a branch in the opening, use the feeding help.
Switch the machine off before collection box hanging or
unhanging.
Provide balance and safe posture at all times. Do not
incline too much forward and never stand higher than the
machine foot when filling.
Keep distance from the ejection zone at all times.
Make sure, with maximum care, that the processed
material does not contain any metal parts, stones, bottles,
tins and other undesirable items.
Switch the machine immediately off if any undesirable item
gets to the cutting mechanism, if the machine makes
strange noise or starts vibrating. Unplug the machine and
proceed as follows:
- Review the damage
- Replace any damaged part or have it repaired.
- Check if the parts are not loosened and tighten
them if necessary.
Never try to repair the machine, even if you are properly
trained in it.
Make sure the processed material does not accumulate in
the ejection shaft as this would prevent the transport and
could cause a backlash in the feeding hopper.
If the machine is blocked, switch it off and wait until the
cutting mechanism stops. Unplug the machine before
taking the shredded material out of the machine.
Make sure the covers and protective equipment are not
damaged and check them if fitted properly. Provide any
