The fine shredding reduce volume by 20% and will decompose 2-3 times faster than coarser shreddings. Finer shreddings are also ideal for mulching. For green garden waste and coarse shreddings, the fine shredding blades can be simply removed by two screws which hold them in place. Supplied with a 3 M Cable. The Comparison; Visibly finer shreddings through the latest AL-KO technology. Smart Technology; The ingenious fine shredding system produces finer shreddings with the help of 5 additional blades.

Quietly recycling garden debris – The average garden generates a large amount of waste throughout the year, much of which has traditionally been burnt as the most convenient form of disposal. However, the environmentally-conscious gardener knows that not only is this bad for the atmosphere but it is also a waste of natural composting material. Atco Quiet Shredders offer an environmentally friendly solution to this perennial problem. The Quiet 2000 model has a powerful 2000 Watt motor which enables it to shred branches up to 35mm thick. This model uses a cutting drum system that revolves at 40rpm and is extremely quiet at only 84dB(A)*, creating significantly less noise than a traditional impact blade shredder. It also comes complete with a strong fabric debris bag which conveniently locates onto integral bag hooks. This unique shredding action has the advantage of self-feed, automatically drawing in the material which reduces the manual feed time and increases throughput. Reverse running and a blockage release system clears blockages without the need for dismantling the hopper. The shredded material undergoes a “cut and crush” action producing small fractures in the chippings allowing access for micro-organisms and oxygen to accelerate the composting process. The shredded material can be used as a course layer in a compost heap or alternatively, shred and spread directly onto borders to provide a moisture retaining, weed suppressing layer. All Atco shredders have motor overload cut-out protection, a robust stand for stability, and wheels for superb manoeuvrability. (*84dB(A) LwA/91 dB(A) LwA (Ral U254). Guaranteed sound power 92 LwA (with dry wood 2000/14/EC).

With recycling becoming increasing popular, using an AL-KO Silent Power Shredder, garden refuse can be reduced into small pieces suitable for composting. The new anti-friction roller system reduces power consumption by up to 35% and also reduces noise pollution. Branches are drawn in automatically by the cutting mechanism and with its innovative cutting technique, the Silent Power 5000 can cut through wooden materials up to a diameter of 40 mm, whilst still maintaining an extremely high feeding performance. Reverse Feed Facility; Dual function on/off ensures blockage free operation. Anti-Friction Rolling System; A significant reduction in noise levels (83 dB(A)) is possible due to the new cutting/squashing mechanism. Cutting Capacity; With the Silent Power 5000, branches up to a diameter of 40 mm can be shredded, depending on the nature of the wood.
