TROUBLESHOOTING
1.
Clearing a Jam If paper is not inserted properly into the shredder, or if you exceed the sheet
capacity a jam may result. Move the switch to the REVERSE (<<) position, and remove the excess
paper from the top and pull it out. TO PREVENT ANY INJURIES, DO NOT PLACE YOUR HANDS
NEAR THE FEED OPENING. Once the paper is cleared, normal shredding operation can resume. If
the shredder jams while in reverse, press the switch to the AUTO position and let shredder run
to dear the jammed paper. If jam does not clear, slide the switch back and forth between the REV
and AUTO until the jam is cleared. If the jam cannot be cleared following this procedure, unplug
the unit and carefully remove the jammed paper manually.
2. Overheating If your shredder overheats, the unit will automatically shut off and all functions
will cease in order to protect the motor. Turn off and unplug the shredder from the outlet. Allow
enough time for the motor to cool down. The shredder will not resume normal function until the
motor cools down to a safe temperature. Once it is cooled down, plug the shredder back into the
outlet and turn the unit back on. Resume normal operation. Make sure to empty wastebasket to
avoid overloading the basket and damaging the cutting mechanism.
3. Emptying Basket AAlways tum the shredder off and unplug the power cord from the AC outlet
before cleaning, moving, or emptying the wastebasket. Always keep wastebasket emptied so
that the shredder’s output is not impeded. Never let the wastebasket get full. This will lead to
shredded material being pulled back up into the shredder and cause jams.
4. Bin Full Function Some shredders are equipped with a mechanical or optical Bin Full sensor.
When the basket becomes full, the shredder will cease operation. Empty basket and resume
operation.
5. Staples & Paper Clips Our shredders are designed primarily to shred paper and single credit
cards or CDs (as indicated). Although our shredders are safe to shred the occasional standard
staples, staples should still remove whenever possible to prolong the life of the unit. Industrial or
non-standard, large staples MUST be removed. DO NOT shred paper clips at any time as this will
cause damage to the blades.
MAINTENANCE
Use shredder lubricant regularly.
• Only use lubricants specifically designed for your shredder, such as shredder lubricant or shredder
lubricant sheets
• NEVER use spray lubricants
• Follow directions on the shredder lubricant sheets
• Do not touch the cutting surface
CAUTION
