11.2 Cleaning the machine
Maintenance interval:
After each use
Clean the machine thoroughly each time it
has been used. Care of the machine will
protect it against damage and extend its
service life.
The machine may only be cleaned in the
position shown.
Never spray water onto
motor components, seals,
bearing points or electrical
parts such as switches. This
would result in expensive
repairs.
If you are unable to remove
the dirt and accumulated
deposits with a brush, a damp
cloth or a stick, VIKING
recommends the use of a
special cleaner (e.g. STIHL
special cleaner).
Do not use aggressive cleaning agents.
Electric motors are splashproof.
Protect shredding tools, incl. the shredding
chamber using a commercially available
anti-corrosion agent (e.g. rapeseed oil).
11.3 Service intervals
We recommend that you have your garden
shredder serviced
once a year by a
specialist dealer.
VIKING recommends VIKING specialist
dealers.
