OPERATION
Using the switch located on the unit, select one of the following settings by sliding the switch either
left or right. (FIGURE 2)
AUTO / ON:
This setting allows the shredder to be automatically started by inserting paper into the
shred opening. Always feed the paper in as straight as possible. When the paper has
passed through, the shredder will automatically stop. (FIGURE 2)
OFF:
This setting turns off all features of the shredder. For safety reasons, we recommend that
you leave the shredder in the "Off" position whenever the shredder is unattended or not
in use. (FIGURE 2)
REV (REVERSE):
In the unlikely event of a paper jam, the reverse setting can be used to help clear the cutters
of paper that has not passed through. Never attempt to clear a jam by using the reverse
function until you have emptied the wastebasket. (FIGURE 2)
Never shred large paper clips, window or insulated envelopes, continuous forms,
newsprint, transparencies, laminated documents, cardboard, any items with adhesives,
hard materials or plastic (except Credit Cards).
This shredder will shred staples and
small
paper clips. It is recommended that you remove paper clips
whenever possible to extend the lifespan of your shredder.
Only shred credit cards by feeding them vertically into the middle of the entry,
releasing when shredding begins. Never feed more than one credit card at a time.
DO NOT ACTIVATE REVERSE FUNCTION WHILE SHREDDING CREDIT CARDS.
Overfeeding the shredder:
Shredding beyond the specified sheet capacity can result in extensive
damage to the shredder. Overfeeding will strain the machine and quickly wear and break the cutting
blades and internal components.
Overheating with extended use:
In the event that the shredder has shred continuously beyond
the maximum running time and overheating, the unit will automatically shut off. If this happens, switch
the shredder Off for 30 minutes or longer before resuming normal operation.
