Maintenance
Regular emptying of the basket
is important to ensure the smooth operation of the
cutting cylinders. If you can see paper in the basket window (F), turn off and unplug the
shredder, remove the shredder head and empty the basket.
Regular oiling of the confetti-cut model
(PS60C-2) is also necessary to ensure proper
performance. If you are running the shredder at or near capacity, we recommend oiling it
monthly. Using Fellowes Powershred Lubricant #35250 or other non-aerosol vegetable-
based oil in a long-nozzle container:
• Apply oil over full width of paper entry (E) with shredder in off [O] position.
• Press control switch to automatic [I] position which will cause shredder to run for
about 2 seconds.
• Press and hold control switch in reverse [R] position for 3-5 seconds.
• Repeat above automatic [I] and reverse [R] sequence three times.
REMINDER:
Do not use flammable synthetic oil, petroleum-based products or aerosol
lubricants of any kind in or near the shredder at any time.

cannot solve the problem this way, contact Fellowes Customer Service.
