This service manual covers adjustment, disassembly, operation, preventative maintenance, trou-
bleshooting procedures and contains an illustrated parts list for the GBC Shredmaster 2230S-/2250X
shredder. The GBC Shredmaster 2230S/2250X shredders are designed for small offices and low
volume requirements.
Innovative engineering has provided these shredders with the following operating and safety fea-
tures:
1.
Automatic Operation
- The unit begins to operate when paper actuates the trigger in the shred-
der throat area. The motor stops running when the paper has cleared the cutting head and after the
shredder has timed out.
2.
Overload Warning
- Whenever the capacity of the shredder is exceeded the unit will stop shred-
ding and the "Reverse" icon will illuminate.
3.
Bin Full
- When the shred bag becomes full, the motor automatically turns off and the "Bin full"
icon will illuminate. The shredder will not operate until the shredded material is either compacted or
emptied.
4.
Door Ajar
- When the door of the shredder is not fully closed, the "Door Ajar" icon will illuminate.
This is a safety feature that will only allow the shredder to operate when the cabinet door is in the
closed position.
Before attempting any repairs on the 2230S-1/2250X shredder, review the operating instructions first
to gain experience and familiarity with its operation. You will then be better prepared to use the
remaining sections of this manual to troubleshoot and repair the shredder.
