Set-Up
This shredder will only operate when used with the supplied basket. The supplied bas-
ket has a built-in safety feature which prevents the shredder from operating if used
with any other basket or if improperly assembled.
•Position shredder head (1) over cabinet (2). Place shredder head on top of cabinet as
shown in Figure A.
•Firmly push down on four corners of shredder head to “l o c k ” shredder head into posi-
t i o n .
•Push basket (3) into shredder cabinet as shown in Figure B. Basket must be pushed
f i r m l y, so edges of basket/cabinet are aligned properly.
N O T E:
To disassemble, pull out basket, hold cabinet down by placing foot on bottom
shelf, and firmly pull up on shredder head.
Operation
For convenience, your shredder is equipped with an
a u t o m a t i c -sta rt sensor (4)
. This
means that when the control switch (5) is in the automatic [I] position, the shredder will
start running when paper is fed into it. The shredder stops a few seconds after the
paper has passed through. Because the sensor cannot tell the difference between
paper and other objects, this feature can be a hazard, especially to children and pets.
To avoid accidents, turn off the shredder as soon as you are finished. Unplug shredder
if it will
not be used for an extended period.
To shred
•Plug in shredder with control switch (5) in off [O] position
•Press control switch to automatic [I] position; cutting cylinders will run for 1-2 seconds
to signal readiness and green light (6) will turn on.
•Feed paper straight into entry (7), until the shredder automatically begins shredding;
see Product Pr o f i l e for limits on paper width, shreddable items, sheet capacity, etc.
•Shred for no more than 10-12 minutes; shredding longer will cause shredder to turn
itself off for 20 minutes to cool down.
•Press control switch to off [O] position after cutting has stopped. With confetti-c u t
s h r e d d e r, cutting continues for several seconds after paper has gone through in order
to clear shredded paper from cutting cylinders.
In case of a
paper jam
, which may occur if the sheet capacity is exceeded or if paper
is not put in straight, turn off and empty the basket if full. Then:
1 ) Press and hold control switch in reverse [R] position and attempt to back paper out
of shredder.
2 ) If shredder jams in reverse mode, press control switch to automatic [I] position and
attempt to continue shredding operation.
3 ) If shredder jams again, alternate control switch slowly between reverse [R] and auto-
matic [I] positions to attempt to move jammed paper completely through shredder.
If you are unable to clear the jam using this method, turn off and unplug the shred-
der; remove wastebasket from the cabinet and carefully remove any paper extending
below the cutting cylinders; insert wastebasket and repeat jam clearing procedure.
