1.3 Stipulated usage
The shearing plant’s intended purpose of use is described in Chapter 2.2,
“Purpose of use”. Use for any other purposes, particularly on people and
dangerous types of animals, especially predators, is expressly forbidden.
The shearing plant must only be used in dry areas.
The details contained in Chapter 2.3, “Technical data”, are to be considered
as legally binding limit values and characteristic data.
The safety check refers only to the portable shearing plant and not to the
mechanical shaft and the shearing handpiece.
1.4 Basic safety principles
1.4.1 Power supply connections
WARNING!
- Never plug the equipment into damaged sockets. Observe the relevant regulations applicable in your country.
- Maintenance and cleaning work must only be carried out when the equipment is not plugged in.
- Sockets must be equipped with a circuit breaker (FI).
- If the SUPPLY CORD is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
1.4.2 Safety precautions
WARNING!
- Avoid touching machinery that has come into contact with water or other liquids.
- Never shear wet animals.
- Children are forbidden from operating the equipment.
- Lay out the power cable cleanly.
- Check the power cable occasionally for damage.
- Keep the power cable well away from machinery & equipment operating in close proximity.
- Switch off the plant before pulling out the plug.
- After use remove the plug from its socket. The plant should only be cleaned or the cutter replaced when the plug is removed from the power socket.
- Avoid kinks or coils in the cable. Never wind the power cable around the plant during periods of storage. This can result in breaks and damage to the insulation.
- Ensure that animals do not stand on or walk over the cable, and that they do not get caught up in the cable.
- Keep children away from shearing areas.
- Never use a damaged plant. Have the machine checked for faults and repaired immediately by an authorised service agent.
- The air intake for the ventilation holes (Diag. 2+3, pos. a) must be kept clear. Never insert any object into the shearing plant’s ventilation holes.
- Never shear in the vicinity of explosive objects or gases.
- Never shear with blunt or broken shearing combs and cutters.
- Avoid any contact with the moving shearing cutters.
- Store the plant in a clean, dry place to which children and animals have no access.
- This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
- Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the equipment.
1.4.3 Noise emission / personal protective equipment
1.4.4 Residual dangers
Should dangers and hazards occur during operation which are not directly
related to the shearing of animals, we request that you inform us of this.
This also applies in the event of a technical failure that causes a hazard.
1.4.5 Replacement power cable
NOTE!
If the power cable of this equipment is damaged, it must be re- placed by the manufacturer or its after-sales service or a similarly qualified person to avoid dangers.
1.4.6 Supervision of children
WARNING!
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the equipment.

- The operator has experience in dealing with the animals being shorn.
- The operator has read and understood the operating instructions, or has been indoctrinated into the operation of the machine by a skilled person, and the risks and dangers have been pointed out to him.

Initial start-up
3.1 Important notes
WARNING!
- The Voltage specified on the maker’s plate and that of the local power supply must match. The plant may only be connected to an AC power supply.
- It is a compulsory that the operator has read the safety regulations.
- In the event that the plant is operated from a generator, the mains supply voltage must not exceed that specified on the maker‘s rating plate.
3.2 Assembling the shearing plant
Pay attention to sufficient fastening of the shearing plant.
3.2.1 Securing / suspending the shearing plant
The shearing plant can be suspended by means of a strong rope or chain. The
hole provided in the handle should be used to secure the plant (Diag. 2, pos.
c).
3.3 Switching the shearing plant on / off
CAUTION!
Make sure that the ventilation holes are always clear (Diag. 2+3, pos. a). The shears drive remains switched off after the connection to the power supply. The shearing plant is switched on and off respectively via the cord / lever (Diag. 2, pos. b). The drive is switched on by means of one downward pull, and is switched off again by repeating this operation.
Should the power supply be interrupted whilst the drive is running, for safety reasons the motor switches off automatically, which means that the unit must be switched on again via the cord / lever when the power supply is re- established.
Maintenance
4.1 Cleaning
Before commencing any maintenance work disconnect the electrical power supply
by pulling out the plug!
Remove any oil and dirt from the shearing plant by means of a dry cloth. Do
not use liquids!
4.2 Service
WARNING!
For safety reasons the portable shearing plant should be subjected to an annual inspection. It is important that the self-tensioning belt is checked periodically, since the functionality of the patented safety cut-out device is dependent on this.
4.3 Lubrication
Lubricate the machine in accordance with the following specification since a
lack of lubrication is the most common source of faults for unsatisfactory
shearing results.
4.3.1 Portable shearing plant
Requires no lubrication.
4.3.2 Flexible drive
prior to each period of operation
Oil the flexible drive prior to use, and at least each time the cutters are re
placed (Diag. 4, pos. a).
after 100 hours of operation
The flexible drive is fitted with sealed and permanently lubricated ball
bearings. The rotating shaft bore must, however, be greased at regular
intervals (after approximately 100 hours of operation or every 2 years). To
perform this task dismantle the flexible drive in residue from the shaft
bore. Then re-lubricate the shaft bore along its whole length with fresh,
high-quality mineral grease.
4.3.3 Shearing handpiece
See operating instructions for shearing handpiece.
4.4 Storing the machine
CAUTION!
Get into the habit of always giving the shearing plant a good clean after use, store the unit in a dry and clean location out of the reach of children.
