exceeds – your expectations.

To ensure years of safe, efficient use, please read these few

pages about your new shredder. If this manual doesn’t answer

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING

While setting up shredder

•Check shredder for damage or defects; some paper particles in the basket are normal

due to product testing and does not indicate a defect.

•Plug power cord in an outlet that can easily be reached.

•Do not place shredder near or over a heat or water source.

While operating shredder

•Keep hands and hanging objects (jewelry, ties, loose clothing,

long hair, etc.) away from paper entry.

•Keep children and pets away from the shredder.

When not in use

•Always turn off and unplug shredder

•Unplug before emptying basket

•Do not open shredder head: Danger of electric shock.

NOTE:

Do not use flammable synthetic oil, petroleum-based products or aerosols of any

kind on or near product at any time.

ENGLISH

Set-Up

This shredder will only operate when used with the supplied basket. The supplied basket

has a built-in safety feature which prevents the shredder from operating if used with any

other basket or if improperly assembled.

•Position shredder head (6) over cabinet (2). Place shredder head on top of cabinet as

shown in Figure A.

•Firmly push down on four corners of shredder head to “lock” shredder head into position.

•Push basket (3) into shredder cabinet as shown in Figure B. Basket must be pushed firmly,

so edges of basket/cabinet are aligned properly.

NOTE:

To disassemble, pull out basket, hold cabinet down by placing foot on bottom

shelf, and firmly pull up on shredder head.

Operation

For convenience, your shredder is equipped with an

automatic-start sensor (8)

. This

means that when the control switch (5) is on automatic [I] position, the shredder will start

running when you put paper into it and stop a few 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 (5) in off [O] position

•Press control switch to automatic [I] position; cutting cylinders will run for 1-2 seconds to

signal readiness and green light (4) will turn on.

PAPER

•Feed paper straight into entry (1), until the shredder automatically begins shredding; see

Product Profile for limits on paper width, shreddable items, sheet capacity, etc.

•Shred for no more than 15-20 minutes; shredding longer will cause shredder to turn itself

off for 25 minutes to cool down.

•Press control switch to off [O] position after cutting has stopped.

CDs (PS70-2CD only)

•Feed one CD at a time, straight into CD entry (10), releasing when shredding begins.

Shredder will stop when CD has passed through entry. CDs will be shredded into small

particles.

NOTE:

For safety reasons, CDs should only be shredded using the CD entry

(10)

In case of a

paper jam

, which may occur if the sheet capacity is exceeded or if paper is

not put in straight, turn off and empty the basket if full. Then:

1) Press and hold control switch in reverse [R] position and attempt to back paper out of

shredder.

2) If shredder jams in reverse mode, press 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.

ENGLISH

If you are unable to clear the jam using this method, turn off and unplug the shredder;

remove wastebasket from the cabinet and carefully remove any paper extending below

the cutting cylinders; insert wastebasket and repeat jam clearing procedure.

Maintenance

Regular emptying of the basket

is important to ensure the smooth operation of the

cutting cylinders. If you can see paper in the basket window (7), turn off the shredder,

pull out basket and empty basket contents.

Regular oiling of the confetti-cut model (PS80C-2) is also neces-

sary to ensure proper performance. If you are running the shredder at or

near capacity, we recommend oiling it monthly. Using Fellowes Powershred

Lubricant #35250 or other non-aerosol vegetable-based oil in a long-nozzle container:

• Apply oil over full width of paper entry (1) with shredder in off (0) position.

• Press control switch (5) to automatic (I) position which will cause shredder to run for

about 2 seconds.

• Press and hold control switch (5) in reverse (R) position for 3-5 seconds.

• Repeat above automatic (I) and reverse (R) sequence three times.

REMINDER: Do not use flammable synthetic oil, petroleum-based products or aerosol

lubricants of any kind in or near the shredder at any time.

you cannot solve the problem this way, contact Fellowes Customer Service.
