Non-Stop Jam Free
Anti-Jam Technology
Jam Free Shredders will only shred stacks of paper that are
within the shredder’s sheet capacity. For example, a shredder
with a capacity of 22 sheets will not allow the shredding of more
sheets than this.
Sensors in the paper feed area measure the thickness of
paper about to be shredded. The ability to shred or not is
communicated through red and green lighting. Green means
that the stack of paper is within the shredders sheet capacity
and OK to shred. Red means that you have too much paper,
remove some sheets in order to shred.
Since you are unable to shred more sheets of paper than the
shredder is capable of shredding, paper jams are prevented.
Rare Occasions of Jamming
In the unlikely event of the shredder jamming, use the reverse
function to unblock the shredder (see Reverse function section).
Alternating between the reverse and continuous forward
functions will help unblock the feed area.
Door Open Protection
If the door is opened during shredding as a precaution the
shredder will instantly stop, and the door open symbol/indicator
will glow red.
Over Heating
If small office models (SS20-08, SX16-08 and SM12-08)
are used continuously for long periods of time the shredder
may overheat. If this occurs the thermometer symbol on the
indicator panel will illuminate.
When the shredder is ready to be used again the thermometer
symbol will not illuminate.

Initial Setup of SelfOil
For models with SelfOil: DX18-13, DM12-13, DSM07-13 and
DX20-19 only. Not available on: SS20-08, SX16-08, SM12-08,
DS22-13 and DS22-19.
The shredder is designed to automatically lubricate the cutting
mechanism as required to ensure the product continues to
work to its maximum performance and to extend the product
life. Before turning on the machine for the first time, please
open the oil reservoir cap on the head of the shredder (
J
)
and pour in the 60ml bottle of oil provided as standard. This is
sufficient to allow the shredder to start for the first time and to
operate continuously for approximately one hour of shredding
before the reservoir will need refilling. Press and hold down the
Auto button (
E
) for 5 seconds to start the pump and prime the
system. This operation is only required the very first time the
shredder is used. When the ‘Oil Refill’ indicator is illuminated
, flip up the oil reservoir cap (
J
) and refill the oil reservoir
using a bottle of Swingline oil (1760049). The automatic oiling
operation
lasts approximately 2 seconds and you will hear
the distribution pump during this time. Auto-oiling operates
after 15 minutes of shredding.
CAUTION
We only recommend the use of Swingline
®
shredder lubricant
to maintain optimum performance and safety. ACCO accepts no
liability for product performance or safety if anything other than
Swingline branded shredder lubricant is used (Item# 1760049).
WARNING – Do not use flammable oil.
Only Swingline part number 1760049 is recommended.
