Reversing switch
Caution! The reversing switch can only be operated when the shredder is switched off.
Position F
(12)
The reversing switch has been set to position F. The chopping knife will pull in the material
and chop it. The switch is set to position R after the manufacturer's test.
Position R
(13)
When the chopping knife is jammed so that the motor cannot keep running, first press the red
button of the on/off switch to stop the motor. Then completely turn the reversing switch to left
position R and press the on/off switch (the green button). Keep the green button of the on/off
switch pressed, the chopping knife will rotate into the reverse direction and release the
material to enable you to remove it. When you release the on/off switch the shredder will stop
automatically.
Overload protection
If the appliance is overloaded, it stops automatically. Overload (e.g. blocking up of the
chopping knife) will lead to a standstill of the machine after a few seconds. To protect the
motor from getting damaged, the overload switch will automatically cut off the mains supply.
Wait at least 1 minute before restarting by first pressing the reset button (1) and then the
on/off switch.
If the chopping knife is blocked turn the reversing switch to left position R before switching on
the shredder again.

WARNING:
Your fingers must never enter the feeding funnel. Never use this machine if the top
hopper is not fitted. Do not overreach. (Fig 11B)
Feed the material to be chopped into the right side of the feed intake opening. The material is
automatically pulled in by the chopping knife.
