9.3 Preparing the work site
• Clean up the area where the machine will be operated prior to starting the work.
• The routes used to bring in the cutting materials must be freed of any obstructions to avoid
tripping hazards. Here, too, operators must secure their safety.
• Never operate the machine on – forward, backward or lateral – slopes.
• The material to be chipped is to be sorted beforehand. This helps to avoid feeding foreign
objects into the machine.
• Foreign objects include: anything non-organic or which exceed the prescribed maximum
diameters (e.g. metal, stone, synthetic materials, ropes, textiles, etc.). Some of these items can
cause serious damage to the machine or could be ejected as projectiles towards the user.
9.4 Starting the engine
Caution:
Never start the machine when dust has settled on the engine or in between its
cooling fins. It reduces proper cooling of the engine and can cause a fire.
Warning:
The blade shaft is driven directly by the motor. The blades are never discon-
nected. Therefore, the machine becomes dangerous as soon as the engine
starts running. In any situation that could lead to loss of control over the
operation, the engine must be switched off immediately. How to quickly switch
off the machine:
1. pressing the emergency stop bracket backwards will stop the engine;
2. the engine can also be switched off with the stop switch or the
rotary knob
• Any chips still in the shredding chamber must be removed before starting the machine. Failure
to do so may damage the starting mechanism. If starting the engine is impossible nonetheless,
a check should reveal whether any stuck wood chips are obstructing the turbine.
• Ensure that the feed hopper is empty (no garden waste, no tools, etc).
• Please note that the engine will not start unless the emergency stop bracket and the cover
plate are in the correct position.
• The machine becomes a source of danger as soon as the engine is running. The cutting me-
chanism may eject wood chips at any moment. The machine therefore must be positioned with
care, ensuring that the deflector cap is pointing in the direction where any flying objects can
