Boxis AF 50 auto feed is not working

The Boxis AF100 auto feed may not be working due to one or more of the following reasons:
1. Staples are not positioned at the top of the paper, furthest from the shredder opening. 2. Folded paper or non-flat items are in the auto feed tray. 3. Too many sheets are loaded; reduce the number of pages. 4. The bin is full; empty or compress the contents and reinsert the bin. 5. A paper jam is detected; use the Manual Reverse function to clear it. 6. The unit may be overheated; allow it to cool down before use.

The autofeed grabbed multiple pages and jammed. It will not reverse or go forward. Is there a way to take the silver part out of the unit or another way to unjam?

To unjam the Boxis AF100 autofeed if it has grabbed multiple pages and will not reverse or go forward:
1. Slide the switch to "Manual Reverse" to attempt reversing the jammed paper. 2. If the paper remains jammed, flip up the safety cover of the autofeed tray. 3. Remove the jammed paper manually. 4. Close the safety cover. 5. Insert paper into the auto feed tray to resume normal operation.

The power button on the Boxis AF100 may be red because the shredder has overheated. When the motor gets too hot, the shredder automatically shuts off and the red Overheat LED indicator lights up. This is a normal safety feature. The shredder needs about 60 minutes to cool before it can be used again.

I have the Boxis 150 sheet shredder. It will not automatically feed. I can get it to work by holding down the V button. How can I get it working properly.

The Boxis Autoshred AF100 may show a yellow light and not run even when the pull-out basket is empty if the basket is not correctly positioned in the shredder housing. The shredder has a built-in safety feature that prevents operation if the basket is improperly assembled or missing. Ensure the basket is properly inserted to allow the shredder to function.
