GS/ VIPER 50DS
A. The chassis.
The shredder’s chassis serves as support to the various components of the VIPER. It
allows moving the machine independently.
2) Shredding rotor:
Key element of the machine, it shreds the matter brought by the feed roller.
It is put in rotation by progressively activating the clutch levier.
Its speed is set.
B. The shredding unit.
It is composed of a feed hopper (
1
) , a me-
tallic belt (
2
) , a feed roller (
3
) with serrat-
ed bars and a rotor that shreds materials.
1) Feed belt and roller:
They lead the material at con-
stant speed toward the shredding rotor.
An anti-jam system stops it when the ro-
tor’s speed descends too low (jamming at
shredding level), they are automatically
put in rotation when the rotor regains suf-
ficient speed to shred correctly.
They can be activated in both ro-
tation directions (forward and reverse
run) With red or black and yellow push
buttons a the backside of the feed hopper
Their rotation speed is adaptable with a
tooth wheel (4) at the left backside of the
security cover and will depend on the di-
ameter of the material to shred
