MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
If the device stops suddenly during operation and does not produce any suction, then it is to
be switched off immediately. Make sure that no material is wedged in between the shredder
impeller and the casing. Carry out the work as described in the chapter “Cleaning and
Maintenance”. If the appliance will not start, consult Service Centre.
Emptying the collection bag:
With full collection bag, the suction pumping capacity decreases considerably and the collection bag
must be emptied when the bag is full or interferes with the suction capacity of the device.
1. Wait until the impeller wheel comes to a standstill.
2. To remove the collection bag, remove the retainer loop and press the coupler lever on the
frame ( 12).
3. Open the zip-fastener on the collection bag and empty it completely.
4. Fix the emptied collection bag again (see also “Assembly Instructions”).
Such cleaning work is not covered by the guarantee.
Removal of clogging and blockage
Leaf material and fresh plant parts may clog / block the device.
Cleaning the impeller wheel:
1. Use the key to open the screw on the impeller wheel cover and tip up the cover.
2. Carefully remove residues or clogging materials from the impeller wheel.
3. Check to make sure the impeller wheel is easier to turn and is in undamaged condition.
Let replace a defective impeller wheel by a qualified Service Center.
Clean the device in each case immediately after working, since otherwise mud with leaf
residues hardens and sets and can possibly no longer be removed without dismantling the
motor casing.
