before use (risk of overturning).
• Use the appliance only in the external environment. A
minimum safe distance from other walls (outdoor) or
other solid obstacles is 2 m.
• Check before each use:
− the power supply cable for any defective points
(cracks, cuts, etc.);
do not use defective cables
− the apparatus for damage (see the section Safety
of work)

Mains impedance
In the case of unfavourable conditions in the mains, a
short drop of voltage may occur at appliance turning
on which may affect other appliances (such as light
dimming). If the maximum mains impedance specified in
the table is complied with, no defects are expected.

Protection against restarting
in the case of power failure
The appliance is turned off automatically in the case of
the power supply failure (zero voltage switch). To restart
the appliance, it is necessary to depress the green
button again.
Motor protection
The motor is provided with a circuit breaker which is tripped
automatically in the case of overload. The motor can be re-
started after a cooling down phase (approximately 5 minutes).

1. The reset button (motor protection)
2. The green button I for restarting.
Rotation direction switch
Use the rotation direction switch only if the chipper is
turned off.
Forward operation – position
Material is pulled in and chipped with a cylindrical
cutter.
Reverse operation – position
The cutter is revolving in the opposite direction and blocked
material is released. After you change the rotation direction
switch to the position , hold the green button of the switch/
circuit breaker depressed. Cutter revolving is switched over to
the opposite direction. If you release the switch/circuit breaker,
the chipper stops automatically.
Tips
• Large objects and pieces of wood are removed after
repeated turning on in both the direction of chipping
and the direction of releasing.
• Use a wooden rod or hook for the removal of blocked
objects from the hopper or ejection opening.
Before you start the chipper again, wait until
the machine is stopped.

a locking device with unit safety turning off.
Turn the machine always off before the installation
or removal of the collection basket.
