SHREDDING GUIDE

For best results when shredding, follow the guidelines 
shown in the table below.

MATERIAL

SHREDDING METHOD

Twigs and up to 
6 mm diameter.

Feed into the feeding hopper 
at a rate which the product will 
accept without overloading.

Branches and up to 
45 mm in diameter.

Clip off all side growth with 
secateurs before feeding into 
the feeding hopper.

Bedding plants, 
weeds and shrubby 
growth.

Knock soil and stones off the 
roots to avoid damage to the 
blades.

Freshly cut foliage, 
hedge, and kitchen 
waste.(I.e. cabbage 
leaves, vegetable 
peelings etc.)

With any material having a high 
moisture content it is advised 
to feed in some drier sticks at 
regular intervals to help push 
the material through the cutting 
assembly and prevent it from 
clogging.

Dry sticks and twigs

By inserting these at the end 
of your shredding task, this 
will help to clean the moisture 
and plant sap from the inside 
of the product and the cutting 
assembly.

 

Ŷ

Do not allow garden waste to accumulate before 
shredding as it will begin to compost, become too damp 
and clog the cutting assembly. Dry material will help 
most material to clear the ejection chute. Save some 
dry sticks until last to help clean the blade area. 

 

Ŷ

Frequently monitor the build up/collection of shredded 
material. 

 

Ŷ

The exit of the discharge chute must be clear at all 
times to prevent blockages.

 

Ŷ

When the collection box is full, turn the product Off 
before emptying.

 WARNING

Do not put your hands up inside the shredder’s discharge 
chute to clear away shredded material while the product 
is switched on or connected to the mains supply. The 
blades are sharp. Wear heavy-duty gloves and exercise 
extreme caution when cleaning and clearing blockages.

 WARNING

When feeding long woody branches/stems into the 
product be careful of whip and vibrations as they get 
caught by the cutter. The operator must wear eye 
protection whenever using the product.

 WARNING

The cutting device has a tendency to pull branches/
stems into the product. Do not try to impede entry of 
the material being cut once feeding has started. Always 
wear gloves to prevent skin lacerations when feeding 
material into the product.

NOTE:

 In normal use, do not switch off the product until all 

of the shredded material has cleared the cutter assembly. If 
the product is switched off too quickly, remaining pieces of 
material may clog the blade assembly and stall the motor 
when the product is switched back on.
