Anti-Jam Technology
GBC
®
ShredMaster
®
Shredders will only shred stacks of paper
that are within the shredders sheet capacity. For example,
a shredder with a capacity of 22 sheets will not allow the
shredding of more sheets than this.
Sensors in the paper feed area measure the thickness of
paper about to be shredded. The ability to shred or not is
communicated through red and green lighting. Green means
that the stack of paper is within the shredders sheet capacity
and OK to shred. Red means that you have too much paper,
remove some sheets in order to shred.
Given that you are unable to shred more sheets of paper
than the shredder is capable of shredding, paper jams
are prevented.
This prevents time wasted through reversing paper and
unblocking jams not to mention the mess it can create.
Rare Occasions of Jamming
In the unlikely event of the shredder jamming, use the reverse
function to unblock the shredder.
Alternating between the reverse and forward functions will help
unblock the feed area.
This means oil level.
This means oiling in operation.
Initial Setup of SelfOil™
The shredder is designed to automatically lubricate the cutting
mechanism as required to ensure the product continues to
work to its maximum performance and to extend the product
life. Before turning on the machine for the first time, please
open the oil reservoir cap on the head of the shredder (j) and
pour in the 60ml bottle of oil provided as standard. This is
sufficient to allow the shredder to start for the first time and to
operate continuously for approximately one hour of shredding
before the reservoir will need refilling. Press and hold down the
Auto button (f) for 5 seconds to start the pump and prime the
system. This operation is only required the very first time the
shredder is used. When the ‘Oil Refill’ indicator is illuminated
, flip up the oil reservoir cap (j) and refill the oil reservoir
using a bottle of standard GBC oil (1760049). The automatic
oiling operation
lasts approximately 2 seconds and you
will hear the distribution pump during this time. Auto-oiling
operates after 15 minutes of shredding.
This means do not shred credit cards.
We only recommend the use of GBC®
ShredMaster® shredder lubricant to maintain
optimum performance and safety. GBC
accepts no liability for product performance
or safety if anything other than GBC®
ShredMaster® branded shredder lubricant is
used (Order Code 1760049).
WARNING
Do not use flammable oil.
Only GBC part number 1760049 is recommended.
