Default Dead shredder

My shredding addiction has suffered a setback - the shredder died this
morning.
Bosch 2000 working brilliantly then it started clogging - husband
dismantled, cleared clog. On restart it just isn't doing the job any more

it
appears to be blunt. At £200 for about 6hrs shredding this seems a bit
expensive. Anyone else had the same problem?

You may find it is just a case of readjusting the plate the blades cut
against, if its like mine there is a key on one side which winds it in and
out, it will clog if a lot of green stuff goes through so we normally have
some stick to help it on its way (soft green stuff is better straight in the
compost bin anyway)
We normally only have to adjust if something a bit too big goes through but
I do seem to remember had to readjust soon after buying.
