autofeed technology

The OfficeAssist™ A1300 has been designed to automatically shred up to 130 sheets from the
auto-feed chamber and up to 6 sheets through the manual feed slot. The auto-feed mechanism has
been designed to handle paper fastened with staples and paper clips and to only pull a few sheets
of paper into the cutting mechanism to minimise the risk of paper jams.
To guard against injury, the following basic safety precautions must be observed in the set-up of this
product.
• Ensure the machine is plugged into an easily accessible power outlet, and ensure the cable is not
likely to trip up a passer by.
• Any attempt to repair this unit by unqualified personnel will invalidate the warranty. Please return to
supplier.
• Unplug your shredder before moving it or when it is not in use for an extended period of time.
• Do not operate with a damaged power supply cord or plug, after it malfunctions, or after it has been
damaged in any manner.
• Do not overload electrical outlets beyond capacity as this can result in fire or electrical shock.
• The socket-outlet should be installed near the equipment and shall be easily accessible.
• Do not alter the attachment plug. The plug is configured for the appropriate electrical supply.
• Do not use near water.
• Do not use aerosol dusters or cleaners.
• Do NOT spray anything into the shredder.
• Do NOT load the autofeed chamber with junk mail, magazines, bound documents etc.
Although this shredder has been designed to comply with UL 60950-1 EN 60950-1 safety standards
including the "probe accessibility tests", do not operate the shredder near children or pets.
There is a 'cross shaped' integral safety device, located on the left of the internal loading bay, which
is designed to prevent the shredder from operating when the loading door is open. You must NOT
under any circumstances tamper with with this switch, add any object into the cross-shaped interlock
switch other than the interlock actuator, as to do so would activate the cutting blades.
