Clearing a jam
If too much material is inserted in the respective cutting unit, it will cause a jam.
Proceed as follows:
-
Push the sliding switch to the REV position.
-
The cutting unit runs backwards and pushes the excess material back.
-
Reduce the quantity and slide the switch to AUTO again. The cutting unit runs
forward again and the residue remaining is shredded.
If the backwards and forwards movement does not remedy the jam, pull out the mains
plug and remove the remaining manually from the cutting unit.
Motor protection
The motor switches off automatically in the event of overloading. Pull out the mains
plug from the socket and allow the motor to cool down to room temperature. Plug the
mains cable back in and then continue operation.
Notes on care and maintenance
Caution:
maintenance work may only be performed when the
mains plug is pulled
out
.
To ensure your shredder enjoys a long working life, we recommend to clear residual
material from the cutting units at regular intervals and apply
special oil for paper
shredders
to the cutting unit. This special oil is available from specialist dealers or di-rectly
from our service centre in Hattingen. This will extend the service life of the device.
