Each time before starting maintenance work:
Switch off the motor and pull out the mains plug.
Wear protective gloves to prevent injury.
The cutters will not come to a standstill immediately after
cut-off. Before starting any service work wait until all parts
are stationary.
Be sure to have removed any tools from the machine after
completion of service work.
Generally garden shredders require little maintenance. To
maintain their efficiency and a long life, observe the fol-
lowing:
Keep vent slits clean and free from obstructions.
Check the locking screws (tighten where necessary).
Clean the device after shredding.
To clean your product only use a warm moist cloth and a soft
brush.
Never use cleaning agents or solvents. Otherwise the device
may be damaged irreversibly. Plastic parts may be corroded
by chemicals.
Do not clean the machine with running water or high-pressure
cleaners.
After each operation treat bare metal parts with an environment-
compatible biodegradable spray oil to protect them against corro-
sion.
