Operation
1
Connect shredder to mains supply
2
Press the central power on button (b). This will switch the power on. The shredder
will now be in standby mode but will not operate until the button with the green
triangle is pressed. While the shredder is in standby mode, the anti-jam indicator
will flash green.
3
To commence shredding, press the right hand auto feed button (c) which stops
the flashing on the anti-jam indicator. The indicator will now glow green.
This sets the shredder into auto mode and initiates the ShredMaster Jam-Free
mechanism. You are now able to shred.
4
Insert paper to be shredded into the feed area. The ShredMaster Jam-Free
mechanism will sense the thickness of the paper being shredded.
If the paper thickness is within the shredders capacity the motor will start and
your documents will be shredded. Cutters will stop once the shredding process
is complete.
If the paper thickness is greater than the shredders sheet capacity the anti-jam
indicator will turn from green to red and the motor will not run.
5
If this happens, remove some of the sheets from the paper stack and re-try until
the anti-jam indicator reverts back to green, the shredder will then automatically
start and allow the paper to be shredded.
If the shredder is left in auto mode for more than 10 minutes without being used,
the shredder will automatically switch off in order to save power.
Reverse Function

Should you wish to reverse the shredding direction while shredding a document, a
reverse button (d) has been fitted for your convenience.

By pressing the reverse button the shredding cutters will change direction
allowing the retrieval of the document being shredded. The anti-jam indicator will
turn to red.

The reverse function will only run while the button is being pressed. When the
reverse button has been released the shredder will revert to stand by mode.

this will activate the shredder as before.
Only 1 CD can be shred at a time.
Credit Cards

It is important to place in the center of the shredder as this is where the auto run
sensors are located.
Rare Occasions of Jamming
In the unlikely event of the shredder jamming, use the reverse function to unblock the
shredder. (see Reverse function section)
Alternating between the reverse function and the forward run will help unblock the
feed area. To trigger the permanent forward run mechanism, press Auto/On button
(green triangle) down for 2 seconds.
Once the jam is clear, press the right hand auto button once to revert back to auto
mode. You can now resume shredding as normal.
Bin Full
When the bin is full the shredder will not function and the bin full symbol will
illuminate red.
When this happens you must empty the bin.
• Pull out the bin to empty
If the bin is not relocated correctly, the anti-jam indicator will continue to flash red.
Once relocated correctly the anti-jam indicator will return to green.
Shredder Waste Bags
Please refer to illustrations to see how to insert and remove paper bag.
Insert recyclable paper bag (1765022) into the shredder bin and hook in place using
the holes punched in the bag and locating points on the front internal bin face and
rear lip. Once full with paper, unfold the doubled over bag flaps to make the full
bag easy to remove from the bin. Tuck over the rear flap before folding over the front
sealing flap and sealing the bag closed using the adhesive strip. Most local authorities
now accept paper for recycling please contact your local authority for
more information. GBC shredder bag 1765016A could also be used.
Over Heating
If the shredder is used continuously for long periods of time the shredder may
overheat. If this occurs the thermometer symbol on the indicator panel will flash blue.
When the shredder is ready to be used again the thermometer will stop flashing and
the anti-jam indicator will flash green once again. To resume shredding press the auto
button (green triangle).
