Choose a working position alongside the equipment or behind
it. Never stand near the ejection opening.
Longer material that is protruding from the device could
spring back when it is drawn in by the blades! Observe safety
distance!
Never reach into the filling or ejection opening.
Keep your face and body away from the filling opening.
Never place hands, other parts of the body or clothing into the
filler funnel, ejection channel or in the vicinity of other moving
parts.
Check before powering the device up that:
no material residues are in the filling hopper,
−
− the retaining basket is locked.
Do not tip or tilt the machine when the motor is running.
When filling, be careful that no pieces of metal, stones, bottles
or other objects unintended for processing, enter the filling
hopper.
Immediately switch off the equipment and allow it to come to a
stop, if foreign objects enter the filling hopper or if the equip-
ment starts to make unusual noises or vibrates. Remove the
mains plug and carry out the following checks:
inspect for damage,
−
replace or repair damaged parts,
−
− check the equipment and tighten loose parts.
You must not repair the equipment yourself if you are
unauthorized to do so.

shredded into the filling hopper
from the right.
Branches,
twigs
and

of twigs.
