ROYAL 100X PAPER SHREDDER
Setup:
1. The 100X shredder should be placed on a flat level surface.
2. Place the shredder head securely on top of the wastebasket.
3. Make sure that the wastebasket is completely inserted in to the shredder cabinet
and that it fits flush with the shredder cabinet.
4. Plug the power cord into any standard 115-volt AC outlet.
5. Place the slide switch in the
auto
position. The ready
LED
should light
up. You are now ready to start shredding.
Operating the shredder:
With the electrical cord plugged in, the slide switch in the
auto
position and the shredder
wastebasket properly in place, the ready
LED
will light up. This means that the shredder
is now ready for operation. When the paper is inserted into the feed opening, the
shredding process will start automatically and stop when the paper has completed its
travel through the feed opening.
The Royal 100X slide switch is located on the top of the shredder. Also located on top
of the shredder is the ready
LED
. Their purposes of the slide switch is:
1. When the slide switch is in the
auto
position, the shredding process will start
when paper is inserted into the feed opening and will continue until it has completely
passes through the feed opening.
2. The
rev
position on the slide switch is used to assist in the removal of a paper
jam, which reverses the shredding process prior to a completed forward cycle,
thus clearing the cutters. When switching from
auto
to
rev
, always
stop
in the
momentarily to prevent possible damage to the motor.
3. The
off
position is used to terminate the AC power to the shredder. It is
recommended to turn the shredder off when the shredder is not being used for
a prolonged period of time.
4. When the ready
LED
is lit it lets the user know that the wastebasket
is inserted correctly and that the shredder is turned on and ready for use. If the
ready
LED
does not light up, make sure that the plug is plugged in, the
basket is inserted correctly and the slide switch is in the
auto
position.
Shredder capacity:
The Royal 100X will shred up to ten (10) sheets of 20-lb. bond paper and will accept
paper widths up to 8 3/4”. When shredding small material like envelopes, credit cards
or receipts, insert them in the middle of the feed opening.
Cautions:
1. Keep all loose articles of clothing, ties, jewelry, hair or other small items
away from the feed opening to prevent injury.
2. Keep the shredder turned off or unplugged when not in use for prolonged
periods of time.
3. The Royal 100X will cut staples, small paper clips and credit cards; however,
proper discretion is recommended.

4. Do not place hands or fingers into the shredder throat as serious injury
could result.
5. When manually changing feed direction, pause long enough for the motor
to stop.
6. Continuous shredding of computer paper should not exceed 10 minutes.
If continuous use is required at the maximum sheet capacity (10 sheets), it
is recommend that shredding time should be 10 minutes on and 20 minutes
off to allow for proper cooling of the motor.
7. Always turn off or unplug the shredder prior to moving, cleaning or emptying
the wastebasket.
8. Empty wastebasket frequently.
9. Never allow children to shred or play with or around a paper shredder or
else serious injury could occur.
Paper jams and motor overload situations:
The Royal 100X is equipped with an automatic motor overload protection circuit. The
100X will automatically terminate power case of the following abnormal situations:
1. Operating the shredder at the maximum 10-sheet capacity continuously for a
prolonged period of time, eg. more than 3 minutes without stopping.
2. Exceeding the shredding capacity, eg. Inserting more than ten (10) sheets of
20-lbs. paper in one pass, or if the paper is not fed squarely into the feed opening.
Both abnormal operations may result in the activation of the automatic thermal motor
overload protection circuit, which terminates the power to the shredder. A paper jam
could cause the thermal motor overload protection to terminate AC power to the motor.
Never allow the shredder to remain in a jammed condition with the AC power turned on.
If this occurs you should:
In case of a minor paper jam:
1. Place the slide switch in the
rev
position and pull the remaining sheets of paper
out of the feed opening. Remove the unshredded portion of paper from the top
and clear any excess paper shreds from the feed opening.
Be sure to keep
fingers and any personal effects away from the throat of the feed opening
while the shredder cutters are in motion.
In case of a major paper jam:
1. Turn off or unplug the power cord from the AC outlet and wait at least 20 minutes
for the thermal overload protection to reset.
2. Plug in the AC power cord and place switch in the
auto
position. If paper was
left inside the feed opening prior to the overload, place the slide switch in the
rev
position and grasp the excess paper from the top and pull it out. Be careful not
to place your fingers near the feed opening or serious harm could result. Clear
any excess paper shreds from the feed opening.
3. Place the slide in the
auto
position. You are now ready to resume normal
shredding.
