TURNING ON YOUR SHREDDER                        

1.

ON, OFF and REVERSE are controlled by the black
Rocker Switch (3) on the top of the shredder.

2.

Moving the switch to the “I” (ON) position
places the shredder in the standby mode.

Note: Shredder will run momentarily.

3.

Moving the switch to the center or “O” (OFF)
position turns the shredder off.

4.

The REVERSE position “R” will be discussed
in “CLEARING A PAPER JAM”.

SHREDDING                                                     

Turn shredder on. Insert paper squarely into
Feed Opening (1). A light barrier (2) will auto-
matically activate the shredding mechanism.
Continue feeding paper into the Feed Opening
until the shredding mechanism begins to
draw the paper in. At this point, allow the paper
to feed into the shredder on its own. Once the
paper  has  passed  completely  through  the  shredding  mechanism,  the  electronic
controls will automatically stop the machine.

Microfiche  and  transparencies  can  also  be  shredded  in  the  same  manner  as
paper, however, you should shred a piece of paper after every 8 or 10 sheets of
plastic. This helps clean plastic particles out of the shredding mechanism.

ALWAYS TURN SHREDDER OFF IF IT WILL BE UNATTENDED FOR LONG PERIODS OF TIME
