English

through the shredder.
Keep loose hanging jewellery away from the feeder
opening. They may be pulled in and damaged.

Getting started

1. Place the shredder unit onto the waste container. The shredder
unit is extendable on one side which means it can be used
together with 275–380 mm wide waste containers.
2. Place the waste container on an even and stable surface.
3. Connect the plug to a wall outlet with 220–240 V AC voltage rating.

Operation

The control switch has 3 settings:
• ON/AUTO
Automatic start. When the switch is in this mode the shredder
will start automatically when the paper is placed in the feeder
opening. When the paper is fed through the machine will turn
off automatically. If it does not turn off, make sure that the waste
container is not full or that there are no paper remnants stuck in
the shredder.
• REV
Reverse function. Used to remedy a paper jam. If you notice that
the shredder is overloaded and starts to struggle or stop, you
must immediately set the control switch in REV mode. This allows
the blades to rotate backwards and the paper can be fed back
out of the feeder opening.
• FWD
Forward function. Used to clear the blades from paper remnants
and dispose of them in the waste container. You can even use
the FWD and REV modes to try to remove trapped remnants from
the blades.

Capacity

• The shredder can process up to 5 sheets (A4, 80 g) at one time.
The resulting strips will be 7 mm wide. If you run thicker paper
stock the number of sheets the shredder can process is reduced.
The maximum width of the paper should be 21.8 cm (A4).
• If you want to shred smaller sheets of paper, you should feed them
in the centre of the shredder. Otherwise, the shredder will not start
automatically.

Avoiding overloading and jamming

The shredder is equipped with overload protection. When activated
the shredder shuts off when, for example, trying to feed more than
5 sheets in at a time.
To reset the shredder after the overload protection has tripped:
1. Remove the plug from the wall socket and let the shredder cool
for 30 min. Clear the blades of any paper remnants.
2. Connect the plug to a wall socket and set the control switch to
REV mode. Excess paper remnants will exit through the feeder
opening. Remove the plug from the wall outlet and remove any
paper remnants from the blades.
3. Set the switch to ON/AUTO mode.

Care and Maintenance

• Always unplug the machine from the wall socket before cleaning.
• The blades need no maintenance and do not need lubrication.
• Clear the blades from paper remnants using a sharp object.
• Dry the exterior and container using a dry cloth.
• Never use flammable cleaning agents.
• Empty the waste container regularly. A full waste container can
contribute to a diminished functioning of the shredder.

Follow local ordinances when disposing of this product.
