•  Use unit only for its intended purpose.

•  Only use the cord provided with the unit in an appropriate receptacle. Avoid

•  Disconnect the unit from power (remove the cord from the wall and the unit) before

Overview and Intended Use

SEM paper shredders are designed for the destruction of paper. While all high security 
(P-7) paper shredders ONLY accept paper, other models accept paper clips, staples, 
and even optical media and plastic credit or ID cards. Please see the table below.

NOTE:

 It is very important to oil frequently when shredding optical media in any of the 

strip cut and/or 4 x 40mm cross-cut systems.

SEM paper shredders can be ordered at 230V 10A or 120V 15A and both voltages 
should be plugged into a dedicated line.
