SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
This symbol indicates WARNING.
Personal injury and/or damage to property
may result if the instructions are not
followed carefully.
GENERAL
• Study the warning stickers on the machine.
Replace damaged or illegible warning stickers.
• Please read through these instructions carefully.
Learn all the controls and the correct use of the
machine. Keep these instructions.
• Never use the machine if others, particularly
children or animals, are in the vicinity. Anyone
who is not aware of these regulations may not
use the machine. Never let children use the ma-
chine.
• The user is responsible for accidents that happen
to other people or their property.
PREPARATIONS
• Wear protective gloves, protective glasses and
hearing protectors. Avoid loose clothing.
• Always stand steadily and in balance. Do not
stretch towards the machine. Never stand at a
higher level than the machine during use.
• During use, the machine should be flat and on a
firm surface.
• Ensure that all screws and nuts are properly
tightened before use.
• Only use the machine in dry conditions and never
outdoors when it is raining.
• Never use the machine with damaged safety
devices or without protection.
USING THE MACHINE
• Hard objects such as stones, bottle, cans or pieces
of metal must not be fed into the feeding hopper.
This can cause damage to the machine.
• If the machine becomes blocked, stop the motor
and disconnect the plug. Pull out any objects and
check for damage.
• Do not tug on the connection cable. Do not hold
the cable taught. This can cause damage in the
plugs or in the cable’s insulation. Such damage is
invisible but can be dangerous.
• Always keep the connection cable away from the
machine. Disconnect the plug from the electric
socket and check the cable regularly for signs of
damage or ageing. Do not use the machine with a
damaged connection cable.
• If the cable is damaged, it must be replaced by an
authorised service dealer in order to avoid a
hazard.
• If the fuse blows or if the overload protection is
triggered, this is a sign that the machine is
overloaded and/or that two many appliances are
connected to the same lead. Check the cause and
remedy. Do not install a more powerful fuse.
• Keep hands, other parts of your body and cloth-
ing away from the feeding hopper and the dis-
charge chute. Never wear loose clothing or
clothes with belts or straps when using the ma-
chine.
• Keep away from the discharge zone when start-
ing the motor.
• Do not allow the pile of processed material to
build up inside the discharge chute. This blocks
new material and can cause the machine to
change its direction of rotation.
• Keep your face and the rest of your body away
from the feeding hopper.
• Never move the machine by pulling the cable.
The machine must not be moved with the motor
running.
• Do not leave the machine unsupervised, but first
switch off the motor and disconnect the plug.
MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
• During cleaning and maintenance, wear
protective gloves to avoid injury.
• Switch off the motor and disconnect the plug
before carrying out checks or maintenance on the
machine.
• If a foreign object comes into contact with the
spiral cutter or if the machine produces an
abnormal noise level or abnormal vibrations,
switch off the motor immediately. Disconnect the
plug and check for any damage.
• The manufacturer’s obligations and liability
(according to the Product Liability Act) only
apply on the condition that only spare parts
approved by the manufacturer or spare parts of at
least the same quality are used.
• Store the machine in a dry place.
