One Paper Shredder, One Quick Start Guide
FEATURES AND OPERATION
Shredder head and waste bin
Place the shredder head onto the waste collection bin, ensuring they align correctly. If the shredder head is not
orientated correctly on the waste bin, the shredder will not operate correctly.
Operation and usage
- Do not feed more than 8 sheets of standard 80g A4 office paper or 1 credit card at once through the shredder
- Smaller items like envelopes, credit cards or receipts should all be passed through the center of the feed slot.
- It is safe to feed paper with staples through this machine, however to prolong the life of the unit it is suggested that
staples be removed where possible
- Do not feed paper clips through the machine as they will jam the machine and cause irreparable damage.
Operation mode switch
AUTO: This mode will start and stop automatically when an item is inserted into the paper feed slot
REV: This mode is used to clear paper jams. Cutters will immediately engage in the opposite
direction until another mode is selected.
OFF: This mode powers the machine off. This position is recommended when emptying the waste bin or
when the shredder is not in use for prolonged periods of time.
Safety protection
- This shredder is equipped with motor overload protection.
- The unit should be allowed to cool down and not used for 30 mins, if used continuously for two minutes.
- Power may automatically be cut to the unit if:
> The unit is operated continuously at maximum capacity for longer than 2 minutes
> Overloading the unit such as shredding more than 8 sheets at one time
> Paper is not fed squarely into the feed slot.
Safety power-off
If the safety protection has cut power to the machine during use, you should:
- Switch the shredder off and unplug it from mains power. Wait at least 30 minutes for the overload protection to
reset.
- During this time you can tear off or cut any excess paper from the top of the shredder where possible
- Plug the unit back into mains power and put the unit into REV mode. Carefully pull the remaining paper
from the cutting heads.
- Once the unit is free from jams, place the mode switch back to the AUTO position and continue normal use
Note: Particularly difficult jams can be dislodged by moving between the AUTO and REV settings
Maintenance
- Regularly emptying your waste bin helps avoid shredded paper jamming the cutters from underneath.
- When you empty the shredder waste bin or clear a paper jam, please make sure the unit is switched off and
unplugged from mains power
Warning: Do not use this product for any other purpose aside from those explained above. Keep loose articles of
clothing and foreign objects away from the shredder while in use. This device is not suitable for use by children
