General points on shredding and composting

draw chiefly from the soil. This extraction of food

is reduced to a minimum by the return of organic

humus naturally to the soil.

Organic fertilisers are decomposed in the soil by

bacteria, and are transfor med into the important

nutrients absor bed by the plants.

Humus regulates the water-balance in the fertile

topsoil, allows for sufficient aeration of the soil and

facilitates growth of roots.

Well-fertilised soil produces better growth and a

richer harvest. When used in conjunction with

good, systematic rotation, humus can in many ca-

ses prevent soil fatigue.

Proper shredding material

Organic substances, when shredded and mixed

into the soil, become biological fertilisers and

make excellent compost.

Organic substabce include e.g.: branches, twigs,

shrubs, flowerstalks, vegetable waste, leaves, pa-

per, cardboard ets.

ADVICE

Do not shred:

Roots of any kind with soil and sto-

nes attached (will damaged the cut-

ters), plastic materials, plastic bags,

glass, metal objects, bones, box-

wood, rags etc..

Garden waste with a high seed con-

tent is not suitable for suface com-

posting!

Feeding

Always switch on the motor prior to feeding mate-

rial into the shredder.

Use Top Feed for:

Twigs, branches, shrubs up to 13 mm Ø

Vegetable and flower waste, paper, card-

board

Paper and cardboard:

Do not fold too thickly when feeding into the

funnel. Should be fed in try.

CAUTION!

Remove metal clips and staples

from cardboard before shredding.

Do not feed in colour publication,

mail order catalogues etc., as these

contain substances which are unsui-

table for composting.

Garden and kitchen waste with a high water con-

tent, for example vegetable leaves, flowerstalks

etc. tend to stick, and can clog the ejector slot and

block the motor. Allowing waste of this kind to dry

for a few days will make shredding easier.

Several single twigs at a time may be fed in

through top funnel.

Use SIDE FEED for:

All branches up to approx. 35 (40) mm Ø.

Save the thinner twigs at the end of the

branch for top feed.

CAUTION!

When the cutters are sharp they

pull in the waste material with con-

siderable force, and thicker bran-

ches must befirmly held back to

avoid overloading the motor.

We recommend the wearing of gl-

oves and protective glasses while

shredding.

Twigs and branches should be shredded imme-

diately after cutting, while they are still full of sap

and we recommend either shredding dra material

from the time to time during this operation, or re-

serving the dry material until last.

This will absorb the moisture in the shredder and

clean the inside automatically. Do not however,

neglect to remove any residue from the shred-

der once the task is finished (First disconnect the

main plug).

If finer shredding is required, feed the material

through the funnel a second time.
