I have an Al-Ko SP4000 shredder that is about seven years old and has done sterling service in getting the jungle that was the garden fairly clear. However it is now starting to not quite cut thick branches (I was shredding a confer at the weekend) instead turning it into a flexible almost tentacle-like strip. It appears that the gap between rotating cutter and the nylon drum is too large.
I stripped it down at the weekend expecting to find some form of adjustment for the gap but both cutter and roller seem to be in fixed positions. Does anyone know this shredder and is there any adjustment that I can do or do I just have to replace both cutter and roller even though there should be plenty of life in them. Neither look as if they are significantly worn.
Thanks,
Andrew
