Emptying the shredded material debris box
The level of material in the shredded material debris box can be checked
by looking through the clear box.
Always empty the shredded material debris box in good time to prevent
it from overfilling. To empty it, proceed as follows:
•
Switch off the device at the ON/OFF switch.
•
Release the shredded material debris box. To do so, press the safety switch
(Fig. 12/Item A) down.
•
Take the shredded material debris box out at the front.
Adjusting the counter blade (Fig. 14)
The counter blade and cutting unit are perfectly adjusted at the factory. Only if it
suffers wear does the counter blade require adjustment (switch the machine on
for this purpose). To ensure the best possible results from your shredder, the gap
between the counter blade (item B) and the shredding blade (item A) should be
approx. 0.50 mm.
There is an adjustment device on the right-hand side of the plastic housing for
this purpose. Turn the knob clockwise so that the screw (item C) moves towards
the shredding blade. After a half-turn the counter blade will have moved 0.50 mm
closer to the shredding blade. After completing this adjustment check whether the
blade produces the desired results.
