the waste collector bin. Empty the collector bin regularly in order to

Warning symbols

Getting started

1.   Place the shredder unit onto the waste container. There is a safety 

lock on the underside edges of the shredder. These are depressed 
when the shredder is placed correctly on the waste container. 
These must be depressed in order for the shredder to work.

2.   Place the waste container on an even and stable surface.
3.  Connect the plug to a wall outlet with 220–240 V AC voltage rating.

Operation

The control switch has 3 settings:
•   

AUTO

 

Automatic start. When the switch is in this mode the shredder 
will start automatically when the paper is placed in the feeder 
opening. When the paper is fed through the machine will turn 
off automatically. If it does not turn off, make sure that the waste 
container is not full or that there are no paper remnants stuck in 
the shredder.

•   

REV

 

Reverse function. Used to remedy a paper jam. If you notice that 
the shredder is overloaded and starts to struggle or stop, you 
must immediately set the control switch in REV mode. This allows 
the blades to rotate backwards and the paper can be fed back 
out of the feeder opening.

•   

OFF

 

The machine is in the OFF position.

Capacity

•  The shredder can process up to 5 sheets (A4, 80 g) at one time. 

If you run thicker paper stock the number of sheets the shredder 
can process is reduced. The maximum width of the paper should 
be 22 cm (A4).

•  If you want to shred smaller sheets of paper, you should feed them 

in the centre of the feeder opening. Otherwise, the shredder will 
not start automatically.

Avoiding overloading and jamming

The shredder is equipped with overload protection. When activated 
the shredder shuts off when, for example, trying to feed more  
than 5 sheets in at a time.
To reset the shredder after the overload protection has tripped:
1.   Remove the plug from the wall socket and let the shredder cool 

for 30 min. Clear the blades of any paper remnants.

2.   Connect the plug to a wall socket and set the control switch to 

REV

 mode. Excess paper remnants will exit through the feeder 

opening. Remove the plug from the wall outlet and remove any 
paper remnants from the blades.

3.   Set the switch to 

AUTO

 mode.

Care and Maintenance

•  Always unplug the machine from the wall socket before cleaning.
•  The blades need no maintenance and do not need lubrication.
•  Clear the blades from paper remnants using a sharp object.
•  Dry the exterior and container using a dry cloth.
•  Never use flammable cleaning agents.
•  Empty the waste container regularly. A full waste container can 

contribute to a diminished functioning of the shredder.
