Set-Up
For safety reasons, this model will operate only if the shredder head is in the correct position
on the basket. Align slot on 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 run-
ning when you put paper into it and stop 1 or 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.
Paper:
•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 5 minutes; shredding longer will cause shredder to turn itself off for
20 minutes to cool down.
•Slide control switch to off [O] position after cutting has stopped. Cutting continues for 1-2
seconds after paper has gone through in order to clear shredded paper from cutting
cylinders.
Credit Cards:
•Feed one card at a time, into the middle of the paper entry (E), releasing when shredding
begins. Shredder will stop when credit card has passed through the entry.
In case of a
paper jam
, which may occur if the shredder is pushed beyond its specified
capabilities, press the control switch to the off [O] position and empty the basket if full. Then:
1) Slide control switch in 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 automatic
[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.
