Set-Up
• Remove protective cover from paper entry and bottom of shredder.
• For safety reasons, this model will operate only if the shredder head is in the correct
position on the basket. Align slot at the side of the shredder head (A) with tab on the
side of the basket (B) and place it onto the basket in this position.
Operation
For convenience, your shredder is equipped with an
automatic-start sensor (C)
. This
means that when the control switch (D) is on automatic [I] position, the shredder will
start running when you put paper into it and stop 1-2 seconds after the paper has
passed through. Because the sensor cannot tell the difference between paper and other
objects, this feature can also be a hazard, especially to children and pets. To avoid
accidents, turn off the shredder as soon as you are finished. Unplug shredder if it will
not be used for an extended period.
To shred
• Plug in shredder with control switch (D) in off [O] position
• Slide control switch to automatic [I] position to signal readiness
• Feed paper straight into entry (E), until the shredder automatically begins shredding;
see Product Profile for limits on paper width, shreddable items, sheet capacity, etc.
• Shred for no more than 2 minutes; shredding longer will cause shredder to turn itself
off for 4 minutes to cool down.
• Slide control switch to off [O] position after cutting has stopped. Cutting continues for
1 or 2 seconds after paper has gone through in order to clear shredded paper from
cutting cylinders.
In case of a
paper jam
, which may occur if the shredder is pushed beyond its specified
capabilities, slide the control switch to the off [O] position and empty the basket if full.
Then:
1)
Slide control switch to reverse [R] position and attempt to back paper out of shredder.
2)
If shredder jams in reverse mode, slide control switch to automatic [I] position and
attempt to continue shredding operation.
3)
If shredder jams again, alternate control switch slowly between reverse [R] and auto-
matic [I] positions to attempt to move jammed paper completely through shredder.
If you are unable to clear the jam using this method, turn off and unplug the shredder;
remove shredder head from the wastebasket and carefully remove any paper extending
below the cutting cylinders; empty the wastebasket; reassemble the shredder and
repeat jam clearing procedure.
