Electrical Safety
Your machine is double insulated for safety and re-
quires no earth connection. The operating voltage is
230 V AC, 50 Hz (for non-EU countries 220 V,
240 V as applicable). Only use approved extension
cables.
Extension cords/leads should only be used if they
comply with H05VV-F or H05RN-F types.
If you want to use an extension cable when operat-
ing your product, only the following cable dimen-
sions should be used:
2
– 1.0 mm : max length 40 m
2
– 1.5 mm : max length 60 m
2
– 2.5 mm : max length 100 m
It is recommended for increased electrical safety to
use a Residual Current Device (RCD) with a tripping
current of not more than 30 mA. Always check your
RCD every time you use it.
The couplings of connection leads must be pro-
tected against splashes and the coupling sockets on
the leads must be made of rubber or coated with rub-
ber.
Fixing means for the connection leads must be used.
The connection lead must be inspected for signs of
damage at regular intervals and may only be used if
in perfect condition.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by
a Bosch Service Centre.
Products sold in GB only: Your machine is fitted with
an approved 13 A (BS 1363/A) electric plug and is
protected by a 13 A fuse (ASTA Approved to
BS 1362).
If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket out-
lets, it should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted
in its place by an authorized customer service agent.

Starting and Stopping

C
The blade continues to rotate for a few
seconds after the machine is switched off.
Allow the motor/blade to stop rotating be-
fore switching "on" again.
Do not rapidly switch off and on.
Starting:
To start your Shredder, rotate the On/Off switch 2
from position "0" to position "II". Allow machine to
start and release switch, which will return to posi-
tion "I" (the normal run position).
Important note: The machine will not start if the
On/Off switch 2 is pushed in slightly, whilst be-
ing rotated.
As a safety feature the machine will not start unless
the hopper securing knob 3 is fully tightened.
Stopping:
Rotate the On/Off switch 2 to position "0".
Note: The blade will stop automatically before the
cover 11 can be removed.
Emergency Stop:
Press the On/Off switch 2.
Restart Protection
After a mains failure, or if the product cuts out due to
overloads, the machine cannot restart on its own
when the power returns or when protector resets.
To restart the machine:
Set the On/Off switch 2 to "0".
Rotate the On/Off switch 2 to position "II", al-
low the machine to start and release the
switch. It will now move to position "I" (the nor-
mal run position).
Important note: The machine will not start if the
On/Off switch 2 is pushed in slightly, whilst be-
ing rotated.
