Helpful User Tips
1. Clearing a Jam. If paper is not inserted properly into the shredder, or if the sheet capacity is
exceeded, a jam may result. Move the switch to the REVERSE (<<) position, and remove the
excess paper from the top and pull it out. TO PREVENT ANY INJURIES, DO NOT PLACE YOUR
HANDS NEAR THE FEED OPENING. Once the paper is cleared, normal shredding operation can
resume. If the shredder jams while in reverse, press the switch to the AUTO position and let
shredder run to clear the jammed paper. If jam does not clear, slide the switch back and forth
between the REV and AUTO until the jam is cleared. If the jam cannot be cleared following
this procedure, unplug the unit and carefully remove the jammed paper manually.
2. Overheating. If your shredder overheats, the unit will automatically shut off and all
functions will cease in order to protect the motor. Turn off and unplug the shredder from
the outlet. Allow enough time for the motor to cool down. The shredder will not resume
normal function until the temperature of the motor cools down to a safe temperature.
Once cool, plug the shredder back into the outlet, turn the unit back on and resume normal
operation. Make sure to empty waste basket to avoid overloading the basket and damaging
the cutting mechanism.
3. Bin Full Function. Some shredders are equipped with a mechanical or optical Bin Full sensor.
When the basket becomes full, the shredder will cease operation. Empty basket to resume
operation.
4. Emptying Basket. Always turn the shredder off and unplug the power cord from the AC
outlet before cleaning it, moving it, or emptying the wastebasket. Always keep wastebasket
emptied so that the shredder's output is not impeded. Never let the wastebasket get full.
This will lead to shredded material being pulled back up into the shredder and cause jams.
5. Staples and Paperclips. Although our shredders are safe to shred the occasional standard
staple, you should remove them if possible. Also, industrial or non-standard, large size staples
must be removed. Paperclips should not be shredded at any time, as they significantly reduce
the life of the shredder. Please remove staples and paperclips from paper before shredding.
How To Maintain Your Shredder
Lubricate Blades Regularly
• Only use lubricants specifically designed for your shredder, such as shredder lubricant or
shredder lubricant sheets.
• NEVER use spray lubricants.
• Follow directions on the shredder lubricant product package.
• Do not touch the cutting surface.
• Continue to recycle waste paper in a normal manner.
When Using Shredder Lubricant Sheets
Never tear or open a shredder lubricant sheet. Please, empty waste basket prior to use. Shred
one shredder lubricant sheet by feeding sheet in the direction on the arrows, directly into the
paper feed entrance as per the instructions that came with your shredder. After shredding the
lubricant sheet completely, run the shredder in reverse for 10 seconds for optimal performance.
Align the first lubricant sheet to the left of the shredder throat. The next time you use a shred-
der lubricant sheet align the pouch to the right of the shredder throat. Continue to alternate
between aligning the pouches to the left and right to ensure the entire cutting mechanism
remains well lubricated. Re-lubricate your shredder by shredding a lubrication sheet after
30 minutes of shredding or a minimum of twice per month to maintain maximum performance.
