• Open the maintenance hatch (Read “11.2.4 Opening the AxeleroTM chamber” on page 42)
• The sieve that closes off the shredder chamber and shredders that are calibrated to size,
comprise two components. An upper sieve and a lower sieve. They are connected together via
a hinge.
• The lower sieve is secured to the machine with a
pin.
• The upper sieve is clamped into the machine via
two tensioning hooks. The tension on the hooks can
be eliminated by pulling the black lever (1) towards
you.
Caution:
When releasing the tension on the hooks, the upper sieve may pop open. The
upper sieve often stays in position because the fixed shredders hold it fast. Try
to open the sieve using the handle. If the sieve is too tightly fixed, the black lever
can be used to provide leverage. Place the specially formed pressure foot (2) on
the axle against the handle. Pushing downwards on the black lever now exerts
additional pressure on the upper sieve in order to push it open.
Caution:
Do not hold onto the sieve using the handle otherwise your fingers could become
jammed between the handle and the lock.
• The upper sieve can be re-
moved from the machine by
unhooking it from the hinge
with the lower sieve.
Warning:
The blades are extremely sharp. Avoid contact with the blades and always wear the
necessary, appropriate protective gear, such as gloves.
