Reverse Function
• Should you wish to reverse the shredding direction while
shredding a document, a reverse button (f) has been fitted for
your convenience.
• By pressing the reverse button the shredding cutters will
change direction allowing the retrieval of the document being
shredded. The anti-jam indicator will turn to red.
• The reverse function will only run whilst the button is being
pressed. When the reverse button has been released the
shredder will revert to stand by mode.
• To turn back to auto mode, press the auto button (e).
CD and Credit Card Shredding
Models GSM128, GDM1013 and GDHS713 can not shred CD’s
or credit cards, therefore this section is not applicable to these
three models. All other Jam Free models can shred CD’s and
credit cards as follows:
• A separate CD tray is provided on some models to collect the
shredded CD shards. Ensure that this is correctly mounted
onto the bin rail or internal bin before shredding CDs or credit
cards. CD and credit card shards should be disposed of
separately to paper.
• Pull up the CD guide (h) located in the centre of the feed area
and flip it into position over the shredder mouth.
• For credit card shredding, switch the shredder to auto mode
and insert the card in line with the arrow marked on the
shredder mouth. Only shred 1 credit card at a time.
• For CD shredding, extend the sides of the CD guide, switch
the shredder to auto mode and place the CD into the centre
of the CD slot. Only shred 1 CD at a time.
• Empty the CD tray (where provided) after 8 credit cards or
CD’s to avoid waste spilling over into the paper waste bin.
Remove the CD tray before recommencing to shred paper.
Operation
• After unpacking the product, pull out the shredder bin or bag
frame (depending on model) and remove the CD shard tray,
which sits on top of the bag frame on departmental models
or bin on small office models. Store this tray on the external
location points (i) and use when you shred CD’s or credit
cards to separate waste for recycling (not applicable for
GSM128, GDM1013 and GDHS713 models).
• Connect shredder to mains supply.
• Ensure the on/off button on the back of the machine is in the
on position (d).
• To commence shredding, press the central Auto button (e).
This will illuminate the anti jam indicator.
This sets the shredder into auto mode and initiates the Jam
Free anti jam mechanism. The standby symbol will illuminate
blue and the anti-jam indicator will glow green.
You are now able to shred.
• Insert paper to be shredded into the feed area. The Jam Free
anti jam mechanism will sense the thickness of the paper
being shredded.
If the paper thickness is within the shredder’s capacity, the
motor will start and your documents will be shredded. Cutters
will stop once the shredding process is complete.
If the paper thickness is greater than the shredder’s sheet
capacity, the anti-jam indicator will turn from green to red
and the motor will not run.
• If this happens, remove some of the sheets from the paper
stack and re-try until the anti-jam indicator reverts back to
green, the shredder will then automatically start and allow
the paper to be shredded.
• If the shredder is left in auto mode for more than 2 minutes
without being used, the shredder will automatically turn back
to standby mode in order to save power.
• The shredder will automatically ‘wake up’ from sleep mode
when paper is inserted into the shredder mouth. There is no
need to press the Auto button (e).
