• The cable wire colours, or a letter, will be

marked at the connection points of most good

quality plugs. Attach the wires to their respective

points in the plug (see above). Brown is for ‘Live’

(L) and blue is for ‘Neutral’ (N).

• The recommended fuse to use with this product

is 13 amps. Please ensure that the plug being

fitted is equipped with a fuse of the correct rating.

Note: Fuses do not give personal protection

against electric shock.

• Before replacing the top cover of the mains plug

ensure that the cable restraint is holding the

outer sheath on the cable firmly and that the two

leads are correctly fixed at the terminal screws.

• Do not wire an extension cable directly into your

machine yourself. Instead, take your machine to

your nearest Black & Decker service centre.

• Warning! Never connect live or neutral wires

to the earth pin marked ‘E’ or .

Additional electrical safety

Increased safety can be obtained by having a

qualified electrician install a high sensitivity circuit

breaker in the house wiring. If you do not have such

a circuit breaker installed, or you do not wish to have

one installed, then we strongly recommend that the

electrical power to the machine be supplied through

a high sensitivity residual current device (RCD) with a

tripping current of not more than 30mA. The RCD is

designed to provide a high degree of personal

protection against harmful electric current should

fault conditions occur.

Warning! The use of an RCD or other circuit breaker

unit does not release the operator of the machine

from the safety instructions and safe working

practices given in this manual.

Operating the shredder (Figs. C & D)

• To switch the unit on, press the white

switch located on the side of the

shredder motor.

• To switch the unit off, press the red switch

located above the white ‘on’ switch.

In normal use, do not switch the shredder

off until all shredded material has been

cleared from the cutter assembly. If the unit

is switched off too quickly, remaining bits of

material may clog and stall the motor when

it is switched on again. If this does occur,

follow the procedure outlined below.

• The shredder is equipped with an integral

safety switch to protect the motor from

damage if it is overloaded. If this occurs,

the shredder will automatically be

switched off. It will automatically reset

after a delay of about 1 or 2 minutes

which allows the motor to cool.

If the motor refuses to start after this period,

the following procedure should be followed:

• Ensure the shredder is switched off.

• Disconnect the shredder from the

power supply.

• Disconnect the motor plug connection.

• The shredder has been fitted with a

safety-interlock device.

• The device ensures that the power is

disconnected from the shredder if the

funnel has been removed. The unit

cannot be operated with the cutting

blades exposed.

• To remove the funnel, it is necessary to

pull the interlock device away from the

motor housing as shown in Fig. D. The

reverse of this procedure must be

followed after the funnel has been

reconnected.

• Loosen the thumbscrew and remove the

feeder body.

• Clean out all material left in the shredder.

• Replace feeder body, tighten the screw

and reconnect the motor plug

• Reconnect the power supply.

Why shred?

The material should be shredded to assist in quicker

decomposition.

The relatively short duration of this decomposition

process is made possible by the numerous ruptures

resulting from the shredding process which provide

excellent points of attack for the micro-organisms. In

a short time the natural decomposition process of the

shredded material will produce a rich healthy humus.

For the growth of leaves, flowers, fruits and roots,

plants need important nutritive elements, which they

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 transformed into the important

nutrients absorbed by the plants.

Humus regulates the water balance in the fertile

topsoil, allows for sufficient aeration of the soil and

facilitates growth of radicles.

Well fertilised soil produces better growth and a

richer harvest. When used in conjunction with good,

systematic rotation, humus will enrich poor soil.
