b) operation
- Wait until the motor has reached its maximum speed. Only work
when at maximum speed.
- Place plant matter in the plastic feeding chute, standing to the
right of it to avoid any possible kickback of material.
- make sure no-one is standing in the discharge zone.
Material suitable for shredding:
Cut flowers, hedge trimmings,
branches no more than 35 mm in diameter.
You must not
put glass, stones, metal or plastic in the shredder.
you must therefore check that the plant matter to be shredded
does not contain any foreign objects.
If a foreign object has just been inadvertently introduced, stop the
shredder immediately, unplug the power cord and inspect the ma-
chine and have the repairs carried out if necessary by an authori-
zed repairman.
- !!WarnIng!!
Never operate the shredder without the discharge pipe deflector (risk of
projectiles and possibility of coming into contact with the cutting assembly).
- always give the shredder time to discharge plant matter before adding more (risk of
jamming).
- If necessary remove a branch to allow the shredder to get back up to maximum speed.
- If the shredder has a tendency to swallow branches and then stall, hold them back slightly.
c) Tips
- avoid shredding damp plant matter (risk of jamming).
- avoid shredding very dry wood (when harder it puts more stress on the blades).
- For easier operating conditions, always work with well sharpened blades.
- Ideal :
For large diameter
freshly cut wood.
For very leafy branches,
allow to dry out for 2 days.
d) stopping the motor
Wait until the shredder is empty before stopping it as plant matter left in the feeding chute or blade casing
could jam the rotor when restarting the machine.
Warning:
because of rotor inertia, the stop time is relatively long.
