SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When using this machine follow these safety precautions to reduce risk of fire, electric shock, or injury.
1. Do not attempt to shred materials other than paper or credit cards. Do not shred plastic (except credit cards),
newsprint, cardboard, paperclips, labels, tape, envelopes, or anything with glue or adhesives. Do not shred greeting
cards with sound chips or batteries.
2. It is recommended that you remove all staples from paper before shredding. This unit will cut staples up to a
maximum of 10 stapled sheets. Continuous shredding of staples can get jammed in the cutting blades and affect the
performance of the shredder.
3. Do not exceed the recommended sheet capacity.
4. Do not operate if the electrical plug or power cord is damaged.
5. Do not under any circumstance alter the electric plug.
6. The cord should be secured behind the machine and not left exposed or dangling.
7. Do not pull on the cable to unplug.
8. Do not turn this machine on/off by connecting/disconnecting it from the source of electricity.
9. Turn off the power when unattended or not in use for an extended period of time.
10. Avoid placing the machine near the following areas:
a. An area with high humidity
b. An area that is exposed to direct sunlight
c. An area that is dusty or incurs vibrations
d. An area that is not level or is on an incline
e. A heat or fire prone area such as a stove or near a dehumidifier
11. Do not use aerosol dusters or cleaners. Do not use canned air on the shredder.
12. If changing the feed direction (ex. Forward to Reverse), allow long enough time for the motor to stop to avoid
possible damage.
13. Empty the waste bin frequently to avoid overloading it and possibly damaging the shredder cutting mechanism.
14. Continuous shredding of paper should not exceed 60 minutes. If continuous use is required, it is recommended that
the shredding time should be a maximum of 60 minutes on followed by a minimum of 30 minutes cooling time to
allow for proper cooling of the motor.
15. Do not attempt to repair the shredder yourself.
