autofeed technology
The OfficeAssist™ A6000 has been designed to automatically shred up to 600 sheets from the auto-
feed chamber and up to 9/10 sheets through the manual feed slot. The auto-feed mechanism has
been designed to handle paper fastened with staples and paper clips and to only pull a few sheets of
paper into the cutting mechanism to minimise the risk of paper jams.
