until the machine has run down if the cutting mech-
anism hits a foreign object or if the machine starts
to make unusual noises or vibrate. Disconnect the
machine from the mains or remove the batteries
and take the following steps before restarting and
operating the machine:
– check for damage;
– replace or repair damaged parts;

chine has been disconnected from the mains power
connection or the batteries have been removed
from the machine and the moving dangerous parts
have come to a complete stop.
• In the event of an accident or a fault during opera-
tion, switch the device off immediately. Treat inju-
ries properly or consult a doctor. To rectify faults,
read chapter Troubleshooting or contact our service

the power source, disconnect the machine from the
mains or remove the battery and ensure that all
moving parts have run out. Allow the machine to
cool down before inspections, adjustments, etc.
Maintain the machine with care and keep it clean.
• Always allow the machine to cool down before stor-

• Due to the interlocking function of the protective de-
vice, even though the energy source is switched off,
the shredder may still be moving. Be aware of this
when maintaining the shredder.
• Never attempt to bypass the interlocking function of
the safety guard.
Additional safety instructions:

WARNING
This power tool generates an electromagnetic field
during operation. This field can impair active or pas-
sive medical implants under certain circumstances. In
order to prevent the risk of serious or deadly injuries,
we recommend that persons with medical implants
consult with their physician and the manufacturer of
the medical implant prior to operating the power tool.
WARNING
In case of extended working periods, the operating
personnel may suffer circulatory disturbances in their
hands (vibration white finger) due to vibrations.
Raynaud's syndrome is a vascular disease that caus-
es the small blood vessels on the fingers and toes to
cramp in spasms. The affected areas are no longer
supplied with sufficient blood and therefore appear
extremely pale. The frequent use of vibrating prod-
ucts can cause nerve damage in people whose circu-
lation is impaired (e.g. smokers, diabetics).
If you notice unusual adverse effects, stop working
immediately and seek medical advice.
