Safety

•  Place the machine as close to a wall outlet as possible.
•  Always remove the plug from the wall socket before moving or 

cleaning the shredder.

•  Always remove the plug from the wall socket before emptying the 

waste collection bin. Empty the collector bin regularly in order to 
avoid jamming the machine because of the container being over 
full.

•  Never open the casing. If you should have problems with the 

shredder, contact Customer Services.

•  The product is designed exclusively for domestic use. The 

machine is not designed for commercial use.

Warning symbols

Getting started

1.  Place the shredder unit onto the waste container. The shredder 

unit is extendable on one side which means it can be used 
together with 275–380 mm wide waste containers.

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:
• 

ON/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.

• 

FWD 

Forward function. Used to clear the blades from paper remnants 
and dispose of them in the waste container. You can even use 
the FWD and REV modes to try to remove trapped remnants from 
the blades.

Capacity

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

The resulting strips will be 7 mm wide. If you run thicker paper 
stock the number of sheets the shredder can process is reduced. 
The maximum width of the paper should be 21.8 cm (A4).

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

in the centre of the shredder. 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 ON/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.
