3 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

3.1

Designated use

The garden shredder is only intended for use in
shredding organic materials that are incurred in
the home and garden. No other use is permitted.
Only work with the trailer when it is fully assem-
bled.
This trailer is intended solely for use in non-com-
mercial applications. Any other use (as well as
unauthorised conversions or add-ons) are re-
garded as contrary to the intended use and will
result in exclusion of the warranty as well as loss
of conformity (CE mark); the manufacturer will
thus decline any responsibility for damage and/or
injury suffered by the user or third parties.
P40: continuous operation with interruptions
The appliance can be operated continuously but
with regular interruptions at high loads. If it is op-
erated for too long at high loads, the overload
protection switches the appliance off. The appli-
ance has been tested and approved for operation
at full load for 40 s followed by an idling time of
60 s.

3.4.1

Safety circuit breaker

When the securing bolt (02/1) is pulled out, the
safety circuit breaker is tripped. As a result, the
motor can no longer be started by actuating the
on/off switch.
The shredder can only be started with by actuat-
ing the on/off switch again when the feed tube
has been fastened on the housing again using
the original securing bolt.
3.4.2

Switch with overload protection

According to the VDE regulations, the appliance
is equipped with a switch with an integrated safe-
ty switch that shuts off the current in the event of
overloading. Overloading can occur if the blade is
blocked for a long time.
For safety purposes, the safety switch is de-
signed so that you have to wait for around 1 - 3
minutes before the motor can be switched on
again. However, you must eliminate the cause of
the overloading beforehand.
First, the switch must always be switched off in
order to switch on the motor again. After the wait-
ing time, the appliance can be started again by
actuating the switch.
