corresponding to specifications, must not
be employed. Remove the plug immediately
from the plug socket in case of damage to
the mains cable.
■If it is not possible to avoid using the
electrical tool in a damp environment, use a
residual current circuit-breaker with a trigger
current of 30 mA or lower. The use of a
residual current circuit-breaker reduces the
risk of an electrical shock.
■Arrange the connecting cable in such a way
that it cannot be caught by branches or
similar when cutting.
■Do not overload the device. Use the
appropriate electrical tool for the job in hand.
■Using the correct electrical tool allows you to
work better and more safety in the specified
performance range.
■Do not use an electrical tool with a defective
switch. An electrical tool that cannot be
switched on or off is dangerous and must be
repaired.
■Do not transport or tip the shredder with the
motor running.
■Keep electrical tools that are not in use well
out of the reach of children. Do not allow
people who are unfamiliar with the device or
who have not read these instructions to use
the device.
■Electrical tools are dangerous if they are
used by inexperienced persons.
■Switch the shredder off and pull the plug
under the following circumstances:
- When you are not using the device,
- Transporting it or leaving it unattended;
- Before releasing a jammed blade.
- When you are checking the device,
cleaning it or removing blockages;
- When you are carrying out cleaning
or maintenance work or replacing
accessories;
SAFETY INFORMATION
Please read these instructions fully before operating or maintaining your machine
- Before moving or lifting the shredder
- If foreign objects should enter the
shredder, if the shredder is making
unfamiliar noises or vibrations (check the
shredder for damage before starting it up
again).
■Ensure that your cutting tools are sharp
and clean. Properly cared for cutting tools
with sharp cutting edges are less likely to
become jammed and are easier to operate.
■Use the electrical tool, accessories,
adjustment tools etc. in accordance with
these instructions. Take the working
conditions and the tasks to be completed
into account. The use of electrical tools for
tasks other than the one they are intended
for can lead to dangerous situations.
■Pay attention to what you are doing and
be sensible when working with an electrical
tool. Do not use an electrical tool if you are
tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol
or prescription drugs. A single moment of
inattention when using an electrical tool can
lead to serious injuries.
■Wear personal protective gear and always
wear goggles. Wearing personal protective
clothing, such as breathing masks, non-
slip safety shoes, protective helmet or ear
defenders, according to type and use of the
electrical tool, will reduce the risk of injuries.
■Avoid starting the tool accidentally. Ensure
that the electrical tool is switched off before
you connect it to the power supply and/
or battery, or transport it. If you have your
finger on the switch when moving the device
or have it switched on when connecting
to the power supply, this may lead to
accidents.
