Caution! Please read and follow the safety instructions carefully.

The shredder must be properly assembled before use.
Caution! This appliance must be earthed!
Caution! Use only a three-wire earthed extension cord.
Use only approved for outdoor use extension cords before use and check whether they are in good condition.
Protect you from any damage caused by excessive mechanical stress, sharp edges, moving parts contact with corrosive liquids, etc., the cable.
Caution! Do not use an extension cord, which shows signs of damage. Connect a completely new cable before you accept any permanent or temporary repairs. Let the cable be replaced from a qualified professional.
Before inserting the plug into the mains power socket, ensure that the mains voltage corresponds to the specifications on the nameplate of the chopper.
Never move the chopper by pulling the cables.
Disconnect the machine from the mains power socket always before transport.
Turn off the shredder before disconnecting any plug-in or extension cord.
Leave the shredder unattended while it is turned on. Turn off the engine and pull out the mains power socket before you leave the chopper. Do the same in case of a power failure.
Keep children and pets away from the chopper.

ATTENTION

ANY FINAL JAM NUT AND BOLT ON ANY DEAD TIGHT! WHILE OPERATING THE VIBRATING MACHINE NOT TIGHTENING THE SCREWS CAN BREAK OFF AND LOSS AND DANGEROUS SITUATION TO BE CARRIED!

Startup

Make sure that the device is completely and correctly assembled.
Set the shredder for use on firm, horizontal ground (tipping).
Use the device only in the open. Keep a safe distance (at least 2 m) from a wall or other rigid object.
Check before each use:
- the connection cables for defects (cracks, cuts, etc.) do not use damaged cables
- the device for damage (see Safety)
- that all screws are tightened

Electrical Connection

The supply voltage must comply with the specifications that are listed on the nameplate of your harvester. A chopper with a nominal value of 230 V can be connected to a mains voltage of 230V. The chopper is to be supplied via a residual current protective device with a tripping current not exceeding 30 mA. An extension cord with too small a cross-section causes a significant reduction in the efficiency of the machine. For cables with a length of up to 25 m, a diameter of at least 3 x 1.5 mm2 is required, for cables with a length of about 25 m, the cross section must be at least 2.5 mm2

Note!

When starting (start) this equipment, a brief voltage drop occurs, especially in poor network quality. These dips can affect other devices (eg flicker of a lamp). For a line impedance Zmax 0.42HM, such disturbances are not expected. (Please contact their local power company for further information).

- Make sure that the shredded material is free to fall out of the chute – there is the risk of back!
- The ventilation slots must not be covered by the collector or chopped

Adjust baffle

The best distance between the baffle ② and the cutting blades ① is 0 from 0,50 mm. This distance should be adhered to in order to achieve successful work. There is an adjustment on the right side of the plastic case. To adjust the distance, turn the knob ③ clockwise so that the bolt is to- wards blade rotates. With a half circle, the panel moved 0.50 mm toward the cutter. Perform after adjusting cutting tests to check whether the best result is achieved.
