corners of all four (4) locking tabs as shown in Fig. 4. With all four (4)
tabs locked securely in place, turn the wastebasket right side up and
place the shredder head securely on top.

LED
does not light up, lift the shredder out of the
wastebasket and place it back in so that it sits flush inside of the
wastebasket.
Operating the shredder:
The
Main Switch
is located on the top of the shredder. The
Main Switch
has three (3) settings and one
Clear Botton

When
AUTO
is selected, the shredding process is started automatically
by inserting the paper into the feed opening. The shredder will stop
automatically when the paper has completed its travel through the feed
opening.
2.
REV
is used to assist in the removal of a paper jam, which reverses the
shredding process prior to a completed cycle, thus clearing the cutters.
3.
OFF
position is recommended when emptying the wastebasket or when
the shredder is not in use for a prolonged period of time.
4.
Clear
removes any paper left in the cutters.
NOTE: The LED lights up in AUTO position only.

If continuous use is required, it is recommend that the shredding time
should be 2 minute on and 4 minute off to allow for proper cooling of
the motor.

Paper jams and overload protection:
AG77x is equipped with a motor overload protection device. The normal short
duty cycle for continuous shredding at maximum capacity is 2 minutes on and
4 minutes off. The power may terminate automatically in case of the following
abnormal situations:
1.
Operating the shredder at the maximum capacity continuously for a
prolonged period of time, eg. more than 2 minutes without stopping.
2.
Exceeding the shredding capacity, eg. inserting more than seven (7) sheets
of 20-lb. paper at 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 motor
overload protection, which terminates the power to the unit. If this occurs you
should:
1.
Unplug the power cord from the AC outlet and wait at least 4 minutes
for the overload protection to reset. Tear or cut off any excess paper from
the top of the shredder.
2.
Plug the power cord back into the AC outlet and place the Main Switch in
REV.
Pull the remaining paper out of the cutters. Place the Main Switch
back to the
Auto
position and if neccessary, press the
CLEAR
button to
clear the feed opening of any remaining shredded pieces of paper. Keep
fingers away from feed opening to avoid harm.
3.
With the Main Switch in the
AUTO
position and the feed opening clear, you
are now ready to resume normal shredding.
