OPERATION
WARNING!
THE SHREDDER IS NOT RECOMMENDED
FOR MATERIALS INCLUDING GLASS, METAL,
PLASTIC BAGS, STONES, FABRIC, EARTH COVERED
ROOTS, SOFT LEAFY MATERIAL AND WASTE WITHOUT
A FIRM CONSISTENCY (EG. KITCHEN WASTE).
WARNING!
TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO THE
MACHINE IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT GARDEN
MATERIAL GREATER THAN 40MM IS NOT FED INTO
THE SHREDDER.
The following types of material
can be used in the shredder:
• Twigs.
• Branches.
• Waste from cut bushes.
• Waste from hedge trimming.
1. Feed the material to be

automatically pull the
material through the rolling
cutter head, shred it and
extract it through the
discharge chute.
40mm Ø
Maximum
¥
Branches and twigs should be shredded shortly after they are cut.
They become extremely hard once dry and the maximum cutting
diameter is reduced.
¥
Garden waste such as fresh foliage, creepers and vines contain a
lot of moisture, this can result in material sticking to the cutter head.
Such material should be allowed to dry for a few days before being
fed into the shredder.
¥
Always check material before shredding, ensure it does not contain
any stones or nails as this may severely damage the shredder.
¥
Judge the quantity of material which you put into the hopper so that
the funnel does not clog.
¥
Do not shred soft waste (e.g. kitchen waste) – put it straight in the
compost box.
¥
Entangled branches and leaves should be thoroughly shredded
before loading any more material.
¥
Do not allow the discharge opening to become clogged with
shredded material – risk of pile-ups.
¥
Do not cover the ventilation slits.
¥
Do not place heavy material or thick branches into the machine
continuously. This may cause the blade to jam.
¥
Always store the shredder indoors in a dry place.
