Storage

Follow the steps below to prepare the electric wood c 

shredder for storage:

1. 

Disconnect the power supply to the wood c shredder.  

2. 

Clean the wood c shredder with a damp cloth or 

hand brush.

3. 

Inspect the wood c shredder carefully for worn, 

loose, or damaged parts. Check connections and screws 

and tighten if necessary. Pay special attention to the blade 

and replace if it shows signs of wear. Refer to the Care + 

Maintenance section.

4. 

Store the wood c shredder indoors in a dry, clean, 

and cool area out of the reach of children. Do not store the 

unit next to corrosive materials, such as fertilizer and rock 

salt.

5. 

Wipe the extension cord to remove any foreign 

substances, such as oil or stains. Replace the extension 

cord immediately if it is cut or damaged in any way.

6. 

Do not cover the wood c shredder with a solid 

plastic sheet. Plastic coverings trap moisture around the 

shredder, which can damage the unit.
