Adjusting the pressure plate
The pressure plate factory setting is correct,
and only has to be adjusted with wear. You
will recognise that the cutting system has
become worn when the shredding material
is only compressed, and comes out in long
chains.
The running-in process may require that
you initially readjust the pressure plate in
short intervals.
1. To switch on the equipment, turn the
operating mode selection switch ( A 9)
to the right.
2. Turn the adjusting screw ( A 11) slowly
clockwise until you hear scraping nois-
es. Small aluminium shavings will come
out of the ejection chute.
Avoid unnecessary wear on the
pressure plate by not over-adjust-
ing.
Maintenance and cleaning
Leave all work not described
in this manual to an authorised
customer service centre. Only
use original parts.
Wear hand protection when work-
ing on the blade cylinder.
Switch the shredder off, unplug it
form the mains, and wait for the
blade cylinder to come to a com-
plete stop before working on it.
General cleaning and servicing
Do not spray water onto the
shredder. Electric shock hazard.
• Always keep the shredder, wheels and
air vents clean. Use a brush or cloth to
clean it, avoid cleaners and solvents.
• Always check that the shredder and
especially the guards are not worn
down or damaged but firmly attached
before use. Check that the nuts, bolts
and screws are tight.
• Check the covers and guards for dam-
age and improper attachment. If nec-
essary, change the components
• Keep the shredder in a dry place out
of children’s reach. Do not cover the
shredder in nylon bags, as moisture
may develop.

ly from our service centre (see address on

ment type and position number in the
