It is recommended for increased electrical 
safety to use a Residual Current Device (RCD) 
with a tripping current of not more than 
30 mA. Always check your RCD every time you 
use it.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be re-
placed by a Bosch Service Centre.
When using cable drums, these must be com-
pletely unreeled.
Products sold in GB only: Your product is fit-
ted with a BS 1363/A approved electric plug 
with internal fuse (ASTA approved to 
BS 1362).
If the plug is not suitable for your socket out-
lets, it should be cut off and an appropriate 
plug fitted in its place by an authorised cus-
tomer service agent. The replacement plug 
should have the same fuse rating as the origi-
nal plug.
The severed plug must be disposed of to 
avoid a possible shock hazard and should nev-
er be inserted into a mains socket elsewhere.
Assembly
Remove the machine from the package 
(see figures A–D).
Assemble the chute (see figures E–F)
Operation
Starting Operation (see figure G)
f
Always place the machine on firm level 
ground. During operation, do not tilt or 
move.
f
The motor will coast after switching off!
Remove earth from roots. Foreign material 
such as stones, glass, metals, fabrics or plas-
tics must not enter the chute assembly 8. Oth-
erwise this could damage the cutting roller 
16.
The chute assembly 8 must be empty.
Starting
Press green button 4.
Stopping
Press red “stop” button 5.
Restarting Protection
A mains failure causes machine to switch off. 
The machine cannot restart on its own when 
the power returns.
Return Motion
Press and hold the yellow button 6 to reverse 
the feed.
The cutting roller 16 runs backward and frees 
jammed material.
Overload Protection
Overloading (e. g. blocking of the cutting roll-
er 16) causes the machine to stop after a few 
seconds. Press and hold the yellow button 6 
to reverse the cutter to unblock. If the block-
age cannot be cleared the pressure plate 15 
will need to moved away from the cutter.
The adjustment knob 10 will need to be 
turned a anti clock wise direction a small 
amount until the “jammed” material is clear. 
The pressure plate 15 will need adjustment 
(see “Pressure Plate Adjustment 
(see figure H)”).
Working Advice
f
Wear eye protection, hearing protection 
and safety gloves at all times while oper-
ating the machine.
f
Always check before use that the collec-
tion box and chute assembly are fitted 
correctly.
The machine is fitted with sensors, unless the 
collection box 11 is fitted correctly and the 
chute assembly 8 is correctly positioned, the 
machine will not start and the buzzer beeps 
(on AXT 23 TC/25 TC also the 2 LEDs 14 
flash).
Insert the material to be shredded. The mate-
rial will be fed by the cutter roller 16 without 
further assistance.
f
Longer material standing out from the 
machine could lash out when being pulled 
in by the knives! Please keep at safe dis-
tance!
– Only insert as much material so that the 
chute assembly 8 will not be blocked up.
– Shred withered, moist material and garden 
waste which has been stored for some 
days alternately with branches.
This prevents the cutting roller 16 from 
clogging.
– Do not fill soft waste such as kitchen rub-
bish into the shredder but compost direct-
ly.
– Take care that the shredded material can 
fall freely from the discharge chute – dan-
ger of backing up!
– The ventilation slots 3 must not be covered 
by the shredded material.
– Avoid blocking the discharge chute with 
shredded material as this could result in 
kickback of material through the chute as-
sembly 8 opening.
Advice on Shredding
Branches become harder to shred depending 
on the type, age and dryness of the wood.
For best results, shred fresh branches soon 
after they have been cut.
Soft garden waste should be shredded in 
smaller loads, particularly when wet. Any 
blockages can be avoided by intermittently 
shredding branches.
