Safe operating practices
1) Training
Become familiar with the owner’s manual
before attempting to operate this equipment.
2) Preparation
1) Do not allow children to operate this
equipment.
2) Do not operate this equipment in the
vicinity of bystanders.
3) Wear ear protection and safety glasses at all times while operating the machine.
4) Avoid wearing clothing that is loose
fitting or that has hanging cords or
ties.
5) Only operate the machine in open
space (e.g. not close to a wall or other
fixed object) and on a firm, level surface.
6) Do not operate the machine on a
paved or gavel surface where ejected
material could cause injury.
7) Before starting the machine, check that
all screws, nuts, bolts, and other fasteners are properly secured and that
guards and screens are in place. Replace damaged or unreadable labels.
8) Before starting the product, make certain that the feed inlet is empty.
9) Do not operate the product in the vicinity of bystanders.
3) Operation
1) Keep your face and body away from
the feed inlet opening.
2) Do not allow hands or any other part
of the body or clothing inside the feeding chamber, discharge chute, or near
any moving part.
3) Keep proper balance and footing at all
times. Do not overreach. Never stand
at a higher level than the base of the
machine when feeding material into
it.
4) Always stand clear of the discharge
zone when operating this machine.
5) When feeding material into the machine be extremely careful that pieces
of metal, rocks, bottles, cans or other
foreign objects are not included.
6) If the cutting mechanism strikes any
foreign objects or if the machine
should start making any unusual noise
or vibration, shut off the power source
2500W SHREDDER BBB202SHR
and allow the machine to stop. Disconnect from supply and take the following steps:
- inspect for damage.
- check for and tighten any loose parts.
- have any damaged parts replaced or
repaired with parts having equivalent
specifications.
7) Do not allow processed material to
build up in the discharge zone; this
may prevent proper discharge and can
result in kickback of material through
the feed intake opening.
8) If the machine becomes clogged, shutoff the power source and disconnect
from supply before clearing debris.
Keep the power source clear of debris
and other accumulations to prevent
damage to the power source or possible fire. Remember that operating
the starting mechanism on engine
powered machines will still cause the
cutting means to move.
9) Keep all guards and deflectors in place
and in good working condition.
10) Do not tamper with the power source
governor settings; the governor controls the safe maximum operating
speed and protects the power source
and all moving parts from damage
caused by over-speed. Seek authorised service if a problem exists.
11) Do not transport this machine while
the power source is running.
12) Shut off the power source and disconnect from supply whenever you leave
the work area.
13) Do not tilt the machine while the power source is running.
14) When feeding material into the product be extremely careful that the
mains cable is not accidently fed into
the product.
15) Keep hands and feet away from the
cutting means at all times and especially when switching on the motor.
16) Do not touch the cutting means before
the machine is disconnected from the
supply and the cutting means have
come to a complete stop.
17) Whilst using the product ensure the
cable does not become trapped under
the wheels or support feet.
4) Maintenance and storage
1) When the machine is stopped for
servicing, inspection, or storage, or
to change an accessory, shut off the
power source, disconnect form supply, make sure that all moving parts
have come to a complete stop and,
where a key is fitted remove the key.
Allow the machine to cool before making any inspections, adjustments, etc.
2) When servicing the cutting means be
aware that, even though the power
source will not start due to the interlock feature of the guard, the cutting
means can still be moved by a manual
starting mechanism.
3) use only approved replacement parts.
5) Additional safety instructions for
units with bagging attachments
1) Shut-off the power unit before attaching or removing the bag.

the information quoted on the tool
identification plate.
1. We recommend that you always
use the appliance supplied via a Residual Current Device (RCD) with a
tripping current of not more than 30mA.
2. Use only extension cables suitable
for outdoor use, preferably with a high
visibility cord colour. With the following
specification:
• For extension cables up to 25 meters, use
a wire cross section of 1.5mm
2
• For extension cables over 25 meters
and less than 40 meters, use a wire cross
section of 2.5mm

OVERLOAD PROTECTION
Overload (e.g. blocking up of the cutting
blades) leads to a standstill of the machine after a few seconds. To protect the
motor from being damaged, the overload
switch will cut the mains automatically.
Wait at least 1 minute before restarting
by first pressing the reset button(8) and
then the on/off switch(9).
SAFETY INTERLOCK
The shredder is fitted with safety switch
on the closure between the hopper and
lower plate.
When the hopper is open or not fitted
well, the machine will not run.
Note: Make sure the hopper was fitted well, after you check the hopper.

Checking the plate hopper and
blade (Fig I-J)
Fig I
Fig J
Warning! Always wear glove
when cleaning or replacing
blade.
1. Ensure the switch is turned off,
disconnect the plug from mains
2. Unscrew the knob anticlockwise and
open the hopper.
3. Clean cut and discharge area and
remove wood sticks or objects with may
clog the blades.
4. Check the blade, when you find the
blade was damaged or blunt, Call help
line to get the spare blade.
5. Re-place the hopper and tighten up the
knob before operate the machine.
Blade replacement (See Fig K)
Fig K
The reversible blade are fixed to rotary
plate with two screws, before any
maintenance or cleaning work on the
blades, always turn the switch off and
disconnect the plug from the mains.
Warning! The blade replacement
should be carried out by qualified
people. Regrinding or Sharpening
of the blades is not recommended
unless completed by a service agent
or a similarly qualified person.
Align the slots on the board and the blade
support; insert the end of the supplied
spanner into slots to prevent rotating
when replacing the blade, then use the
supplied hex key to unscrew the screws.
Note: Always use the original spare
part for replacement.
Shredding material (See Fig L)
Fig L
Feed the material to be chopped into
the right side of the feeding funnel, the
material is pulled in by the cutting blade
automatically.
Caution! Longer material standing
out from the machine could lash out
when being pulled in by the blades!
Keep at safety distance!
Caution! When using the machine and
feeding branches into the shredder,
sometime the blades snatch and pull
the material into the machine. Watch
out your hand as it could cause
serious injury.
Only insert as much material so as to
prevent blockage of the feeding funnel.
Chop garden waste that has been stored
for some days and is wilted and damp
alternately with branches. This prevents
the cutting blades from blocking up.
Do not fill soft waste such as kitchen
rubbish into the shredder but compost
them.
Widely branched material with leaves
must be completely chopped before
new material is fed.
Take care that the chopped material can
fall freely from the ejection slot - danger
of backing up!
Caution! The ventilation must not be
covered
ADVICE ON SHREDDING
• Heavy material or branches result in
blocking of the cutting blades during
continuous cutting.
• Soft materials, such as leaves or stems
may block the feeding opening. Feed the
soft material using the supplied push
bar.
• Always feed the material to be
chopped from the right corner of the
feeding funnel.
• Check the material to be chopped
carefully. Make sure there are no stones
or nails as these could damage the
shredder seriously.
• Check for signs of vibration. Heavy
vibration is caused by damaged or worn
blades. Change the blades if necessary.
MAINTENANCE
• Take care of your machine and clean it
regularly to obtain long-lasting efficiency
and performance.
• Keep the air vents clean and free from
dust.
• Use only a warm damp cloth and a soft
brush to clean your machine.
• Never wet or spray water on the machine.
• Do not use detergents or solvents as
these could cause irreparable damage to
your machine. Chemicals can destroy the
plastic parts.
• The tightness of the fastening screws
of the undercarriage should be checked
from time to time.
• To protect the shredder from corrosion
when storing for a longer period, treat
the cutting blade with harmless oil to the
environment.
