Overload Protection
Overloading (e. g. blocking up of the cutter) can lead
to a standstill of the machine after a few seconds. Af-
ter a short period, the machine can be switched on
again. If the machine blocks again turn it off.
Remove blockage (see "Removing blockage"), and
restart.
Shredding
In order to collect the shredded material, fasten the
carrying straps of the collecting bag 7 (accessory) to
the two hooks 9 while the shredder is switched off.
Feed the material to be shredded through the feed
intake.
Longer material standing out from the ma-
chine could lash out when being cut! Small
pieces of shredded material may be
ejected from the feed intake. Ensure eye
protection, protective gloves and ear pro-
tection are used when using the machine.
Only insert as much material so that the feed in-
take 1 will not be blocked up.
Do not fill soft waste such as kitchen rubbish into the
shredder but compost directly.
Take care that the shredded material can fall freely
from the discharge chute 8 – danger of backing up!
The ventilation slots 5 must not be covered by the
collecting bag or the shredded material.
Avoid blocking the discharge chute 8 with shredded
material as this could result in kickback of material
through the feed intake opening.
Removing Blockage
Stop and remove plug from the power sup-
ply.
After fully unscrewing the securing knob 3, remove
cover 11 and clean the blade area. If debris is com-
pacted in the blade area, remove with a wooden or
plastic implement. Also clean the discharge chute 8
of any debris.
Advice on Shredding
Branches become harder to shred depending on the
type, age and dryness of the wood.
For best results, shred fresh branches soon after
they have been cut.
The use of the prodder 13 will help with the feeding
of soft material.
Soft garden waste should be shredded in smaller
loads, particularly when wet.
Any blockages can be avoided by intermittently
shredding branches.

Maintenance
Stop and remove plug from the power sup-
ply.
Note: To ensure long and reliable service, carry out
the following maintenance regularly.
Regularly check for obvious defects such as loose,
dislodged or damaged blade, loose fixings, and
worn or damaged components.
Check that covers and guards are undamaged and
correctly fitted. Carry out necessary maintenance or
repairs before using.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by
the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qual-
ified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
If the machine should happen to fail despite the care
taken in manufacture and testing, repair should be
carried out by an authorised customer service agend
for Bosch garden products.
For all correspondence and spare parts orders, al-
ways include the 10-digit part number (TYP) from
the nameplate of the machine!

Blade Maintenance

The blade has a double sided cutting edge.
When the cutting edges become blunt, the blade can
be turned over. When both sides are blunt replace
the blade.

replace the blade:

Wearing a pair of garden gloves (not supplied) turn
the blade 14 so that it aligns with the markings on
the reaction plate 18.
➌
Insert a screw driver into the hole 15 to lock the
drive.
➍
Use the allen key 12 to remove the blade
bolt 17, and the blade washer 16.
➎
Remove the blade 14 by lifting and sliding down-
wards as shown in fig.
Fit the blade, blade washer and the blade bolt.
Only use a Bosch approved blade bolt.
Tighten the bolt firmly (tightening torque 12 Nm).
Ensure that the allen key 12 and screw driver are re-
moved, also ensure that the cover 11 and securing
knob 3 are fitted before attempting to turn the ma-
