* ONE FOLDED SHEET OF PAPER EQUATES TO 2 SHEETS OF PAPER
Heavier paper, humidity or other than rated voltage may reduce shredding capacity.
Mount the shredder securely to the rim of the waste basket. (FIGURE 1)
A socket-outlet should be near the equipment and be easily accessible.
Connect the power cord to any standard 120 volt AC outlet.
ATTENTION:
This model includes a built-in safety interlock mechanism, which requires the shredder to be correctly
mounted on to the included wastebasket. Located on the back center of the shredder, next to the power
cord, there is a curved flap-like shape that must
FIT OVER THE OUTSIDE
matching ridge of the
wastebasket. (FIGURE #1)
THE SHREDDER WILL NOT OPERATE UNLESS IT IS PROPERLY
MOUNTED AS PICTURED!
It is not designed to operate with any other wastebaskets. An activation sensor located on the head
unit automatically shuts off the shredder when it is lifted or removed. The supplied wastebasket activates
this switch, which allows the shredder to be operable. Lining the wastebasket with a plastic bag will
interfere and may keep the shredder from functioning.
Caution:
Crosscut shredders have very sharp exposed blades on the underside.
Use care when mounting the shredder on the wastebasket.

WARNING
-
RISK OF FIRE.
Never use any petroleum based or flammable oils or lubricants in or around the
machine as some oils can combust causing serious injury.
ONLY USE NON-AEROLSOL VEGETABLE BASED OILS TO OIL YOUR CUTTERS.
- NEVER dispose of flammable chemicals or materials that have come into contact with flammable
chemicals (for example, nail polish, acetone, gasoline) in the shredder basket.

flaps), adhesive materials (labels, decals/stickers, glued paper), newsprint,
transparencies, laminated documents, continuous forms, cardboard, or hard and
plastic materials (except Credit Cards).

- A socket-outlet should be near the equipment and be easily accessible.
- Always turn the shredder off and unplug the power cord from the AC outlet before cleaning it,
moving it, or emptying the waste basket.
- Never let the wastebasket become full. This will lead to shredded material being pulled back up into
the shredder and cause jams.
- Never place the shredder near water or any heat source.
- Keep wastebasket emptied so that the shredder output is not impeded.
- Do not use the shredder if the power cord is damaged in any way.
- Do not attempt to service this product yourself as doing so may expose you to
sharp cutting blades and/or electricity and will void the manufacturers warranty.
- Never try to clean or clear the shredder blade.
- Never shred beyond the specified sheet capacity. May result in extensive damage to the machine.
