Clearing a blockage (g. C)
If the appliance becomes jammed by branches which are too
thick or hard, or foreign bodies, the shredder will most of the
time release itself automatically. The rotating direction will
automatically reverse thereby releasing the material back
through the top. To return the rotation back to normal, proceed
as follows:
u Switch off and wait until the cutting blade has stopped
completely.
u Switch on again with and the appliance will be back to
forward rotation.
When the material is jammed:
u Switch the appliance off.
u Set the direction selector (2) to the right position.
u Press the I button until the blockage is removed.
Warning! Branches may be ejected from the inlet funnel when
the appliance is running in reverse.
If the blockage has not cleared:
u Switch off and unplug the appliance.
u Use a piece of wood to loosen the debris within the cutting
chamber.
u Replace the plug in the mains socket and operate the
appliance as described above to remove any debris.
Warning! Always switch off and unplug the appliance when
removing a blockage. Do not attempt to remove blockages by
hand through the inlet funnel or outlet opening. Keep your
hands clear of the cutting chamber.
Hints for optimum use
u Shred dry materials last, as this will help to clear moist
material from the shredder.
u Do not allow material to pile up and compost prior to
shredding.
u You may feed shreddings into the shredder for a second
time to further reduce their volume.
