Safety & Maintenance of PS55CC
The PS55CC cross cut shredder creates small particles that, if allowed to accumulate, cause the shredder to jam.
Follow these simple precautions to significantly reduce the likelihood that particles will accumulate and to keep your
cross cut shredder operating at peak efficiency:
• Do not allow the basket to overfill. The power of this shredder will compress paper particles into the basket even
when it is full. The life of your shredder may be reduced if the cutting system continues to operate with particles
packed around it.
• Reverse the shredder often. Reversing helps the shredder flush out small cut particles. Empty basket if it is full
before reversing.
Oil the cutters:
When...
• Every second or third time you empty the basket;
• If the shredder’s cutting capacity is diminished;
• If the cutting cylinders stop with a squeak or a rubbing sound after power is removed.
How...
Use Powershred Lubricant #35250 or a suitable alternative with an extension nozzle. Alternatives can be 3 in 1 or
Sewing Machine Oil. Oil must be non-flammable material and a non-degreaser! Do not use a can spray. Accelerants
are combustible. See order form in this manual.
Squeeze the lubricant across the full width of the cutters and then turn the machine on and run the cutting system
forward for a few seconds. (Since cross-cut machines have auto start, it will be necessary to block the photo eye with
a piece of paper in order to run the cutting system forward).
Then, depress the reverse button and run the cutting system for a few seconds. Repeat the procedure.
Safety of PS55CC
• Do not operate PS55CC without the basket it was shipped with.
• Do not use without the safety flap. Injury may result.
• Do not attempt to defeat the safety interlock switch.
Paper Jams
1. Immediately return power switch to OFF (O) position.
2. Depress power switch to the REVERSE (R) position until the jammed paper has been fully removed from the cutter.
3. DO NOT PULL ON PAPER. Damage to the drive system could occur.
4. If the REVERSE (R) function will not operate when pressed, the internal overload protection device has been
activated. Release the power switch from the REVERSE (R) POSITION, wait 15 seconds and repeat.
5. If the machine jams in reverse, unplug the unit and cut all excess paper off the top and bottom of the machine
before repeating the jam-clearing procedure.
6. Shred smaller quantities. See sheet capacity (Table A).
