HOW TO CLEAR A PAPER JAM:
1. The shredder will automatically attempt to clear itself by rotating the knives
forward and reverse if too much or too large of a piece of material is in the
chamber. This is normal. If this continues for more than 20 – 30 seconds depress
the
“EMERGENCY STOP SWITCH”.
2. Empty the collection bag if full.
3. Depress and hold “REVERSE SWITCH” the shredder will attempt to back paper
out of paper feed slot.
4. If shredder jams in reverse mode, depress and hold “FORWARD SWITCH”.
5. If shredder jams again, alternate slowly depressing the “REVERSE SWITCH” and
“FORWARD SWITCH” to attempt to move jammed paper completely through
shredder.
6. If you are unable to clear the jam using this method, depress “EMERGENCY
STOP SWITCH” and “UNPLUG THE SHREDDER”, remove the collection bag
from cabinet and carefully remove any paper extending below the cutting head.
Reinsert collection bag and repeat jam clearing procedure.
DANGER:
Because the sensor cannot tell the difference between paper and other objects, this
feature can be a hazard. To avoid accidents, depress the “EMERGENCY STOP
SWITCH” on the shredder as soon as you are finished.
Remove electric plug from receptacle if shredder will not be used for an extended
period.
