  • Keep onlookers, especially children, and pets at a safe distance when using the product.
  • Wear ear protection and safety glasses.
  • Do not wear loose-fitting clothing, ties, scarves, etc., that can get caught in moving parts.
  • Only use the product in an open area (not near a wall or other fixed object) and on a firm, level surface.
  • Do not use the machine in areas where ejected material could cause personal injury.
  • Always check before use that all the screw unions and other unions are properly tightened, and that all the safety devices are in place and working. Replace any stickers that have become illegible or lost.
  • Place the product on a level, stable surface.

HOW TO USE

  • Risk of personal injury as a result of parts being ejected. Keep at a safe distance. The minimum safe distance for onlookers is 15 metres when the product is in use.

  • Check before starting that the infeed is empty.

  • Keep your head and other parts of your body away from the infeed opening.

  • Keep your hands and other parts of your body, including your clothing, away from the infeed, the ejector and moving parts.

  • Always maintain a firm footing and good balance. Do not overreach. Never stand higher up than the product when feeding.

  • When feeding make sure that no metal, stones, glass, soil, plastic or other foreign objects get into the product.

  • If the roller knocks against a foreign object, or if the product starts vibrating or making an abnormal noise, switch off the product immediately, pull out the plug, and wait until all moving parts have completely stopped. Pull out the plug and take the following precautions.
    – Check the product for damage.
    – Check and tighten any loose unions.
    – Have any damaged parts repaired or replaced with parts of the same type.

  • Do not allow processed material to collect in the ejector. This can prevent proper emptying and can result in material being thrown out through the infeed opening.

  • If the product gets blocked, switch off the product, pull out the plug and wait until all moving parts have completely stopped before clearing the blockage. Keep the motor free from debris and other deposits to prevent a fire and/or material damage.

  • The safety devices must be fitted correctly and work properly.

  • Do not transport the product when the motor is running.

  • Switch off the product, pull out the plug and wait until all moving parts have completely stopped before leaving the product unattended.

MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE

  • Switch off the product, pull out the plug, and wait until all moving parts have completely stopped before checking, adjusting, maintenance and/or replacing accessories, and before putting into storage. Allow the product to cool before checking, adjusting, maintenance or replacing accessories, and before putting into storage.
  • Be careful when working near the roller and the fixed blade. The roller can move even when the motor is not running.
  • Be careful when cleaning and/or carrying out maintenance. Wear safety gloves – risk of cut injuries.
  • Allow the product to cool before putting into storage.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

  • Check that the rated voltage of the product corresponds to the mains supply voltage.
  • The product must be connected to the mains supply with a residual current device with a maximum tripping current of 30 mA.

Always wear ear protection!
The declared values for vibration and noise, which have been measured by a standardised test method, can be used to compare different tools with each other and for a  preliminary assessment of exposure. The measurement values have been determined in accordance with EN 50434:2014.
WARNING!
The actual vibration and noise level when using tools may differ from the specified maximum value, depending on how the tool is used and the material. It is therefore necessary to determine which safety precautions are required to protect the user, based on an estimate of exposure in actual operating conditions (taking into account all stages of the work cycle, e.g. the time when the tool is switched off and when it is idling, in addition to the start- up time).
