GBC Shredmaster 3220S, Operating Procedures Manual

Page: 3 / 11

SET UP-
FIGURE 2.A.
Caution! Shredders are heavy equipment (see “Shredder Head Weight”
in the “Specifications” section of this Manual). To insure proper instal-
lation and avoid injury GBC recommends that two people set up this unit.
To protect against damage your shredder has been shipped in two parts, the
shredder head (A) and the cabinet (B).
FIGURE 1.A.
Caution! Use care not to pinch your fingers between the shredder head
and cabinet. Handle shredder head as illustrated.
FIGURE 1.B. Open the cabinet door fully, lift the shredder head by the outside
front and back edges using two people on each side. Angle the shredder head
slightly downwards from the front and lower onto the cabinet. Once properly
installed, a uniform gap of approximately a 1/4" will be visible from the front.
FIGURE 2. Remove the wire bag rim and place one of the starter bags onto
the rim. Slide the rim with bag back into the cabinet. Close the cabinet door.
Your shredder is ready for use!
OPERATION-
FIGURE 3.
Connect power cord to an appropriate power source. Press the rocker
switch (A) to the on "I" position. When the shredder is properly set up
with cabinet door fully closed, the Power On light (B) will illuminate.
You are now ready to shred!
To shred simply insert paper into the throat of the unit. Once your document
has activated the Automatic On switch the unit will start and then will stop
once your document is shredded.
To destroy a compact disc or dvd, ( straight-cut models only)
insert the media into the center of the throat area. Once your
media has activated the automatic on switch, the unit will start and then will
stop once your media is shredded.
BIN FULL
In order to prevent shreds from backing up into the cutters and jamming your
shredder this unit features an automatic bin full shut off. Once the
shred bin is full the unit will shut off automatically and the Bin Full light
(C) will illuminate. You can now either compact the shreds and continue
shredding, or empty the shred bag.
NOTE: For safety reasons, whenever the cabinet door has been opened this
unit will not operate until the door is closed and the unit is switched off and
then back on.
DOOR AJAR
Your shredder is equipped with a safety interlock which will not allow the unit
to operate if the cabinet door is open. The Door Ajar light (D) will illuminate if
your cabinet door is not fully closed.
OVERLOAD
If too much paper is inserted into the throat of the unit the shredder will sense
an overload and shut off automatically to avoid unnecessary motor heating
and the Overload Light (E) will illuminate. To clear the overload, switch the
unit to Reverse "R" mode until the paper is clear of the throat area. Switch your
unit back into the Power On position, separate your pages into smaller sets and
shred.
