Preparation before use
How to use the shredder correctly:
1
Take care not to insert fingers, ties or other objects into the entry
slot of the shredder.
2
Try to avoid laminating materials, plastic bags etc. from being
passed through the shredder. This will prevent damage to the
cutters.
3
Do not shred wet paper as it can tangle in the cutters.
4
Do not shred more than the stated sheet capacity in one pass.
5
Do not use the “REV” ( ) (reverse) function if it’s not necessary.
Over use of the “REV” ( ) function can result in shredded paper
becoming jammed in the entry slot, which will adversely affect the
performance of the shredder.
Installation
Position the shredder onto the basket (fig 1). Once the unit is
correctly positioned on the basket, plug it into a standard AC
outlet.
NOTE:
The cross-cut models include safety interlocks. If the bin is not
fully pushed into the cabinet, the interlocks will not be activated and the
unit will not operate.
Forward and reverse (fig 5)
In case of jammed paper, please follow the procedure below:
1
Check if the bin is too full with paper - the bin should be emptied
regularly to avoid paper becoming jammed in the cutters.
2
Slide the switch to ‘REV’ position to reverse the jammed paper.
3
If the paper is so jammed that it will not come out in reverse
function, slowly push the switch between ‘REV’ and ON/AUTO. Don’t
do this too quickly as this can damage the shredder.
4
WARNING –
Do not under any circumstances use any metal objects
(scissors, letter openers etc.) in an attempt to clear the entry – this
model has mains voltage inside the casing, which could cause
serious injury.
Correct operating procedure (fig 2)
1
Insert plug into the AC power socket.
2
Push the switch to the ON/AUTO position (standby mode)
3
When not in use, push the switch to the O (off position)
Auto shred and stop
• Place the paper (fig 3) or credit card (fig 4) into the centre of the entry
slot - shredding will start automatically.
• Paper smaller than A4 in width should be placed in the middle of the
entry slot to ensure the shredder works automatically.
• The cutters will stop rotating automatically after finishing shredding
• Do not shred more than the stated sheet capacity at a time.
Troubleshooting
If the paper shredder will not start, please check the following:
1
Is the machine plugged in correctly?
2
Is the switch pushed to the ‘ON/AUTO’ position?
3
Is the machine jammed with paper?
4
Has the motor overheated?
5
Is the shredder bin fully pushed in?
