Helpful User Tips

Clearing a paper jam
Paper jams may occur due to paper being inserted incorrectly, or the sheet capacity has been exceeded. Should this happen the switch to
the REVERSE (<<) position, and remove the excess paper from the top and pull it out. TO PREVENT ANY INJURIES, DO NOT PLACE YOUR
HANDS NEAR THE FEED OPENING. Once the paper is cleared, normal shredding operation can resume. If the shredder jams while in
reverse, press the switch to the AUTO position and let shredder run to clear the jammed paper. If jam does not clear, slide the switch back
and forth between the REV and AUTO until the jam is cleared. If the jam cannot be cleared following this procedure, unplug the unit and
carefully remove the jammed paper manually.
Overheating
If your shredder overheats, the unit will automatically shut off and all functions will cease in order to protect the motor. Turn off and unplug
the shredder from the outlet. Allow enough time for the motor to cool down. The shredder will not resume normal function until the
temperature of the motor cools down to a safe temperature. Once cool, plug the shredder back into the outlet, turn the unit back on and
resume normal operation. Make sure to empty waste basket to avoid overloading the basket and damaging the cutting mechanism.
Bin Full Function
Some shredders are equipped with a mechanical or optical Bin Full sensor.
When the basket becomes full, the shredder will cease operation. Empty basket to resume operation.
Emptying Basket
Always turn the shredder off and unplug the power cord from the AC outlet before cleaning it, moving it, or emptying the wastebasket.
Always keep wastebasket emptied so that the shredder's output is not impeded. Never let the wastebasket get full. This will lead to
shredded material being pulled back up into the shredder and cause jams.
Staples and Paperclips
Although our shredders are safe to shred the occasional standard staple, you should remove them if possible. Also, industrial or non-
standard, large size staples must be removed. Paperclips should not be shredded at any time, as they significantly reduce the life of the
shredder. Please remove staples and paperclips from paper before shredding.
