To ensure proper operation and function, periodic oiling of the cutting system is required. Failure to oil your cutting system could result in reduced
sheet capacity performance, excess noise, paper jams and possibly machine failure.
•
Oil your cutters every time you empty the bin. (Page 13)
•
Use only oil designed for use in shredders! Never use fl ammable or aerosol lubricants.
