If you interrupt your work to move to a different
position it is imperative to switch off the shredder
while you are moving there.
앬
Never use the shredder in the rain or in moist or
wet conditions.
앬
Protect the shredder from the damp and rain.
앬
Always wear suitable clothing to protect your
head, hands and feet from injury. Wear a helmet,
goggles or visor, high boots or strong shoes, long
trousers made of tough material, and work gloves.
앬
Keep the shredder away from other persons,
particularly children and pets.
CAUTION! The guard is vital for your safety
and for the safety of others, and it is also
essential for the shredder to work correctly.
Failure to observe this instruction will not
only create a potential hazard, it will also
result in the loss of your rights under the
warranty.
앬
Keep the air vents clear of dirt.
앬
After use, unplug the machine and check it for
damage.
앬
When you are not using the shredder, keep it in a
dry place out of the reach of children.
앬
Check the screws regularly to see that they are
properly tightened.
앬
The mains voltage must be the same as the
voltage specified on the rating plate.
앬
Plug connectors must be equipped with earthing
contacts and the coupling must be rain-water
protected.
It is recommended that an RCD
(Residual Current Device) is fitted into the mains
supply for added safety.
- Do not use 2-core extension leads with power
tools which require an earth - always use 3-core
leads with an earth supply marked for outdoor
use.
- Always unwind any extension reels fully.
- For extension reels up to 15 metres use a wire
cross section of 1.5mm
2
. For extension cords over
15 metres but less than 40 metres, use a wire

앬
Use only original replacement parts for repair and
maintenance purposes.
앬
Have repairs carried out only by a qualified
electrician.
앬
Examine the shredder for signs of wear or
damage each time before you use it and after any
collisions. Have essential repairs carried out
without delay.
앬
Never use replacement parts or accessories which
are not foreseen or recommended by the
manufacturer.
앬
Pull out the power plug before carrying out any
inspection, cleaning or other work on the shredder
and whenever it is not being used.
앬
Before you begin your work, examine the material

Keep the machine away from other persons,
particularly children and pets.

socket which has been installed in accordance
with regulations and which is protected by a 16A
fuse as a minimum.
앬
The efficiency of the machine will be greatly

25 m long, and one of at least 3x2.5 mm
2
for
cables longer than 25 m.

loading funnel is properly connected to the motor
housing and the release screw tightened.
