Auto shred and stop

  

Place the paper or credit card into the centre of the entry 
slot - shredding will start automatically (fig 2).

  

Paper smaller than A4 in width should be placed in the 
middle of the entry slot to ensure the shredder works 
automatically.

  

The cutters will stop rotating automatically after finishing 
shredding

  

Don’t shred more than 5 sheets of paper at a time. Do not 
attempt to shred more than one credit card at a time.

If too many sheets are inserted at a time, the shredder can 
become jammed. If the shredder becomes jammed, switch 
the button to REV position to clear the jam by reversing the 
paper. If the paper has become so entangled in the cutter 
that it can’t be reversed, turn off the power and pull out 
the paper by hand. Restart with fewer sheets and feed the 
nonshredded end of the paper in first.

CAUTION: Don’t let the machine operate 
continuously for more than 2 minutes. When 
the motor has overheated, the thermal safety 
switch will start working automatically. If the 
thermal switch trips, do not use the machine 
for about 30 minutes while the thermal 
sensitive safety switch cools down so the 
shredder can be safely used again.

CAUTION: 

t

 

Never insert fingers into the entry slot of the 

shredder.

t

 

Turn the power off immediately if your hair, 
tie or sleeve becomes entangled in the 
shredder.

t

 

The shredder bin must be fully pushed closed 
for the machine to operate.

t

 

Empty the shredder bin when it is full 
otherwise the shredder’s performance will be 
adversely affected. Operating the shredder 
with a full shredder bin can result in paper 
jamming in the cutters, which will increase 
the machine’s noise level.

t

 

Don’t force down shredder paper in the bin 
using your feet.

If the paper shredder will not start, please check the following:

 

Is the machine plugged in correctly?

 

Is the switch pushed to the ‘ON/AUTO’ mode?

 

Is the machine jammed with paper?

Has the motor overheated?

In case of jammed paper, please follow the procedure below:

  Check if the basket is too full with paper - the basket should 

be emptied regularly to avoid paper becoming jammed in 
the cutters.

  Slide the switch to ‘REV’ position to reverse the jammed 

paper.

  If the paper is so jammed that it will not come out in 

reverse function, slowly push the switch between ‘REV’ and 
ON/AUTO. Don’t do this too quickly as this can damage the 
shredder.

  WARNING – Do not under any circumstances use any metal 

objects (scissors, letter openers etc.) in an attempt to clear 
the entry – this model has mains voltage inside the casing, 
which could cause serious injury.

This machine does not require lubricant. ACCO Brands accepts no liability for product performance or safety should any lubricant be 
used on any part(s) of this machine.
