operating interval.
a) Setting up
1. Place the product on an even horizontal surface.
2. Place the cutting unit onto the collection container. The shredder will not operate if the collector does not
make complete contact with the safety interlock switch on the shredder.
3. Prepare material for shredding by removing labels, paper clips, staples, or any other foreign objects.
b) Shredding
1. Check that the switch is in the
Off
position.
2. Connect the shredder to the power supply.
3. Observe the shred capacity per pass:
- Paper: max 10 sheets (80 g/m

c) Clearing paper jams
Always disconnect the shredder from the power supply before attempting to manually
remove blocked paper.
Never use objects of any kind to clear jammed CDs, credit cards, or paper.
Overloading the shredder, damp paper or improper alignment can cause the shredder to jam, if this happens:
1. Set the switch to
Rev
to back the paper out of the unit.
2. If paper will not clear using this method:
- Switch the power
Off
.
- Disconnect the shredder from the power supply.
- Manually remove any stuck paper by pulling it out.
d) Overheat protection
1. The
Overheat
warning LED will turn on if the shredder overheats. If this happens the power will be cut
off to allow the shredder to cool down.
2. Switch the power
Off
and let it cool for approximately 30 minutes, then try the shredder again.
Troubleshooting
Error
Cause
Solution
Shredding does
not start or
switches off dur-
ing shredding.
Plug not properly connected
to power supply.
Check the connection.
Overheat protection has
been triggered.
See section “Operation
→ d) Overheat protection”.
The paper input slot jammed. See section “Operation
→ c) Clearing paper jams”.
The collector is not making
contact with the safety inter-
lock switch on the shredder.
• Check that the shredder is aligned with the
notches on the collection container and sits
flush against it.
• A full collector may cause the shredder to lift up
and break the interlock switch contact. Empty
the collector.
Shredding does
not stop after
the paper has
passed through.
The mechanical sensor may
be jammed by paper.
See section “Operation
→ c) Clearing paper jams”.
Paper will not
shred.
Too much paper has been
inserted.
Check that you have not exceeded max. number
of sheets.
Paper may be too thick.
Reduce the number of sheets being shredded.
Paper may be too thin, soft
or creased to reliably activate
the detection sensor.
1. Set the switch to
Rev
to back the paper out
of the unit.
2. Fold the paper.
3. Try again.
Paper is inserted at an angle.
4. Set the switch to
