Overheating Protection; Emptying The Waste Bin; Troubleshooting; Motor Overloading - Olympia PS14 Mode D'emploi

Switch position FWD (forward):
This switch position serves to shred small size paper. The cutting
mechanism is switched on permanently.
Switch position REV (reverse):
This switch position serves to clear up paper jams, should they occur. The
cutting mechanism runs backwards and the paper is fed back out of the paper
infeed.

Overheating protection

The device is not designed for continuous operation (max. operating time of 1
minute followed by a pause of 25 minutes). In the event of the motor overheating,
a motor circuit breaker automatically switches the motor off.
Examples of shutting down:
1. You use the shredder uninterrupted for over 1 minute and at the
maximum capacity of 5 sheets.
2. You exceed the shredder's load limit by inserting more than 5 sheets at
a time or not feeding the paper straight and flat.
After the overheating protection has been triggered, let the shredder cool
down for at least 25 minutes. Disconnect the power plug in this case.

Emptying the waste bin

Empty the waste bin regularly to prevent the cuttings overflowing and
possibly causing damage to the device.
1. Switch the device off and disconnect the power plug from the power
socket.
2. Remove the shredder from the waste bin and empty the waste bin.

Troubleshooting

Motor overloading

The following can lead to the device being shutdown:
1. Motor overheating. If the device is used continuously for longer than
1 minute, a motor circuit breaker switches the device off
automatically.
2. Exceeding the capacity, e.g. by inserting more than 5 sheet of 70 g
paper at a time.
3. Jammed paper when it is not gripped properly at the paper infeed,
i.e. it is drawn in crooked.
