How to Maintain your Shredder
Use Shredder Lubricant Regularly
• Only use lubricants specifically designed for your shredder, such as shredder lubricant,
shredder lubricant sheets or shredder lubrication pouches.
• NEVER use spray lubricants.
• Follow directions on the shredder lubricant, shredder lubricant sheets or shredder
lubrication pouches.
• Do not touch the cutting surface.
• Continue to recycle waste paper in a normal manner.
When Using Shredder Lubricant Sheets or Pouch
Never tear or open a shredder lubricant sheet. Please, empty waste basket prior to use. Shred one
shredder lubricant sheet by feeding sheet in the direction on the arrows, directly into the paper
feed entrance as per the instructions that came with your shredder. After shredding the lubricant
sheet run the shredder in reverse for 10 seconds for optimal performance. Align the first lubricant
sheet to the left of the shredder throat. The next time you use a shredder lubricant sheet align the
pouch to the right of the shredder throat. Continue to alternate between aligning the pouches to
the left and right to ensure the entire cutting mechanism remains well lubricated. Re-lubricate
your shredder by shredding a lubrication sheet after 30 minutes of shredding, or, a minimum of
twice per month to maintain maximum performance.
When Using Bottled Shredder Lubricant
Apply shredder lubricant directly into the paper feed entrance (Figure 2) and shred paper or
apply a stripe of lubricant across a sheet of paper (Figure 3), then shred the paper as per the
instructions that came with your shredder. After applying lubricant and shredding paper, run
the shredder in reverse for 10 seconds for optimal performance. Reapply lubricant after
30 minutes of shredding or a minimum of twice per month to maintain maximum performance.
Store in a cool dry place. Recycle empty bottle whenever possible or dispose of it in normal trash.

How to Maintain your Shredder
Clearing a Jam
If paper is not inserted properly into the shredder, or if the sheet capacity is exceeded, a jam may
result. The shredder will automatically stop until the jam is cleared. Move the switch to the REVERSE
(REV) 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 FWD position and let shredder run to clear the jammed paper. If jam
does not clear, slide the switch back and forth between the REV and FWD until the jam is cleared. If
the jam cannot be cleared following this procedure, unplug the unit and carefully remove the
jammed paper manually.
Staples and Paperclips
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 staple, you should remove them if
possible. Also, industrial or non-standard, large size staples must be removed. Paperclips should not be
shredded at any time, as they significantly reduce the life of the shredder. Please remove staples and
paperclips from paper before shredding.
