OPERATION

ControlSwitch

Using the switch located on the unit, select one of the following settings

by sliding the switch either left or right. (FIGURE 2)

IAUTO:

This setting allows the shredder to be automatically started by inserting paper into the feed slot. Al-

ways feed the paper in as straight as possible. When the paper has passed through, the shredder

will automatically stop.

OOFF:

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.

RREV(REVERSE):

In the unlikely event of a paper jam, the reverse setting can be used to help clear the cutters of

paper that did not pass through. Never attempt to clear a jam by using the reverse function until

you have emptied the wastebasket.

JAMREMOVER/CDDESTROYER:

The forward setting can also be used to help clear the cutters in the event of a paper jam.

This allows to manually activate the shredder into cutting mode.

NOTE:

•Always turn off and unplug the shredder when not in use.

•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 shred

ding begins. Never feed more than one credit card at a time.

•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 cut-

ting 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 15 minutes or longer before resuming normal operation.

TROUBLESHOOTING

CONTINUED NEXT PAGE

If there is a problem with your shredder, check below for the symptoms and steps to resolve. If you

continue to have problems, contact customer support at our Service Center 1-800-327-8508. DO

NOT ATTEMPT TO REPAIR BY OPENING THE SHREDDER HEAD. This will completely void the

product warranty.

Theshredderdoesnotworkatall.

1)Make sure the unit is pluggedin and that the outlet is in good working order.

2) Overheatingwithextendeduse: In the event that the shredder has shred continuously

beyond the maximum running time and overheated, the unit will automatically shut off. If this hap-

pens, switchtheshredderOfffor15minutes or longer before resuming normal operation.

3) The activation sensor of the shredder is located near the center of the feed slot. Be sure to feed

directly into the center area to activate the machine (especially applies to smaller pieces of paper

or credit cards).

Theshredderrunsin“Rev(Reverse)”modebutnotin“Auto(On)”mode.

While in “Auto” mode, the motor will not start running until paper is inserted into the feed slot. Set the

unit to “Auto” and insert paper to shred. The sensor that activates the shredder in Auto mode is located

directly in the center of the slot. If the paper you are inserting is narrow, it may not be activating the

optical sensor. It is also possible that the feed slot has become blocked with paper. Insert an index card

or any rigid sheet of cardstock (old greeting card or folded file folder), directly in the center of the feed

slot, while applying force to help push the jammed paper through. This will usually clear any paper

blockage.

Howtoclearapaperjamintheshredder.

1) Switch the shredder over into Reverse (REV) mode. While in Reverse, the shredder will back up and

loosen the jammed paper. If required, you may need to tug and remove several sheets to effectively

clear the machine. When jammed paper is loosened or removed, switch back to the Auto-On mode

to continue shredding. Repeat steps if needed.

2) With stubborn situations where the reverse function does not help, you may loosen the jammed

paper with shredder oil (cooking oil is acceptable, nothing aerosol). Start by drizzling oil into the

feed slot where the paper is jammed. Let it soak for about 30 minutes to completely saturate. Return

the shredder back to Auto-Onmode. Ifrequired,anindexcardorarigidsheetof

cardstock(oldgreetingcardorfoldedfilefolder)canbefedintotheshredderto

helppushthejammedpaperthrough.

Theshredderisconstantlyrunningwhilein“Auto(On)”mode.

1) It is possible that the activation sensor, which starts the shredder, has become blocked with paper.

Insert an index card or any rigid sheet of cardstock (old greeting card or folded file folder), directly

in the center of the feed slot, while applying force to help push the jammed paper through. This will

usually clear any paper blocking the activation sensor and feed entry.

2) The activation sensor is being triggered by dust, debris, or oil. A cotton swab may be

used to clean the sensor. DO NOT USE CANNED AIR. The activation sensor of the shredder is

located around the center of the feed entry.
