8.5 Feeding the garden shredder
Risk of injury!
Branch material kickback may
result in serious injury to the user.
In order to prevent injuries caused
by kickback, the garden shredder
must be fed in the correct manner.
When feeding, note the maximum
branch diameter specified. Thin out
any branches with numerous twigs
and remove side shoots. The large
feed opening is designed to better
accommodate branch material with
numerous twigs and side shoots.
● Before feeding the garden shredder,
note the working area. ( 8.1)
● Observe the maximum branch
diameter. ( 8.4)
● Insert the branch material at a slight
angle and guide it along the left-hand
chute wall to the blade unit.
The hard material is automatically
drawn in by the machine. You should
support and guide longer branches with
your hand when shredding.
8.6 Correct machine load
14
The load on the motor or engine of the
garden shredder must never cause the
speed to drop significantly. Always feed
the garden shredder continuously and
steadily. If the speed drops when working
with the garden shredder, stop feeding the
machine in order to relieve the load on the
motor or engine.
9. Safety devices
9.1 Motorstop
The engine/shredding tool can only be
operated when the feed chute has been
properly closed.
When loosening the engine-side closure
screw during operation, the ignition
contact is interrupted and the
engine/shredding tool come to a standstill
after a few seconds.
9.2 Protective covers
The garden shredder is equipped with
protective covers in the feeding and
ejection areas. These include the
complete feed chute with the upper chute
and splash guard, the ejection chute
extension and the discharge flap.
The protective covers ensure that a safe
distance is maintained from the shredding
blades.
