I have a Ryobi garden shredder which has stopped working. It hasn't been used much and the fuse is intact. I wondered if it has a trip out device to protect the motor but I can't see a reset button. Any advice would be gratefully received.

    What's the engine make & model. I had a edger with a Honda engine. It tripped out when it was tilted too far forward. Does the angle of the machine change things?

your carburetor needs cleaning,after years they get gunk in the carb passages and cannot pass the fuel any longer, sometimes you can just clean them if not to severe

SOURCE: I have a Ryobi ESR 2240 garden shredder and need

There are 4 terminals on the back of the switch, numbered 13 / 23 and 14 / 24. Terminal 24 is the neutral wire from the cut off switch. Terminal 14 is the live wire from the mains. Terminal 13 is the brown live wire which comes out of the choc block with a black wire. Terminal 23 is the other brown wire that comes from the choc block.

SOURCE: I plug my shredder in

The breaker is tripping on an over current condition. This could be caused by the motor being stuck and not moving or some sort of short circuit. I suggest, with it unplugged, that you find a way to rotate the chipper head or the motor. May have to disassemble to accomplish this. If it will not turn it may be bound up and you are going to have to take apart anyway to remove the item.

Good luck, hope this helps.

I have a cobra "qs2500"electric garden shredder. It blows fuses at the plug. Have replaced the capacitor but hasn't made any difference. Should I replace the mini circuit breaker? Any ideas?

If your Cobra QS2500 electric garden shredder is blowing fuses at the plug, even after you've replaced the capacitor, there may be an issue with the mini circuit breaker. Before attempting any repairs, it's important to take safety precautions, such as unplugging the shredder and handling electrical components with care.
To troubleshoot the problem, start by checking the power cord for any damage or fraying. If the cord is damaged, it will need to be replaced. Next, inspect the shredder blades to ensure that they are not jammed or damaged. Damaged blades can cause the motor to draw too much power, which can trip the circuit breaker.
If the power cord and blades are in good condition, you can test the mini circuit breaker using a multimeter. If the circuit breaker is faulty, it will need to be replaced. However, if you're not comfortable working with electrical components, it's best to consult a professional to diagnose and fix the problem.
Overall, it's important to always prioritize safety when working with electrical devices. Take the necessary precautions to prevent injury or damage to the shredder or other property.

Ryobi 1900 W chainsaw jus stopped working. No smell, plenty of oil but just stopped firing up next time I tried to use it.

Did you run it dry last time like you are supposed to?
Old gas will clog the carburetor.

Ge Microwave stopped cooking, lights inside went out and the keypad doesn't lite

Check to make sure that a circuit breaker hasn't been tripped in your breaker box. If that's not the case, you can pull the microwave out and check the back for a fuse. Generally fuse access is located next to where the power cord enters the device.
