Set-Up
This shredder will only operate when used with the supplied basket. The supplied
basket has a built-in safety feature which prevents the shredder from operating if
used with any other basket or if improperly assembled.
• Position shredder head (6) over cabinet (2). Place shredder head on top of cabinet
as shown in Figure A.
• Firmly push down on four corners of shredder head to “l o c k” shredder head into
p o s i t i o n .
• Push basket (3) into shredder cabinet as shown in Figure B. Basket must be
pushed firmly, so edges of basket/cabinet are aligned properly.
N OT E: To disassemble, pull out basket, hold cabinet down by placing foot on bot-
tom shelf, and firmly pull up on shredder head.
Operation
For convenience, your shredder is equipped with an a u t o m a t i c -start sensor (8).
This means that when the control switch (5) is in the automatic [I] position, the
shredder will start running when paper is fed into it. The shredder stops a few
seconds after the paper has passed through. Because the sensor cannot tell the
difference between paper and other objects, this feature can be a hazard, espe-
cially to children and pets. To avoid accidents, turn off the shredder as soon as
you are finished. Unplug shredder if it will
not be used for an extended period.
To shred
• Plug in shredder with control switch (5) in off [O] position
• Press control switch to automatic [I] position; cutting cylinders will run for 1-2 sec-
onds to signal readiness and green light (4) will turn on.
PA P E R
• Feed paper straight into entry (1), until the shredder automatically begins shred-
ding; see Product Pr o f i l e for limits on paper width, shreddable items, sheet capaci-
t y, etc.
• Shred for no more than 20 minutes; shredding longer will cause shredder to turn
itself off for 30 minutes to cool down.
• Press control switch to off [O] position after cutting has stopped. With confetti-c u t
s h r e d d e r, cutting continues for several seconds after paper has gone through in
order to clear shredded paper from cutting cylinders.
CDs and DV D s
• Hold CD or DVD at the edge and feed one at a time, straight into CD entry (10),
releasing when shredding begins. Shredder will stop when CD has passed through
e n t r y. CDs will be shredded into small particles.
CAUTION: Do not hold CD or DVD with finger through the center ring while
feeding into shredder.
In case of a paper jam, which may occur if the sheet capacity is exceeded or if
paper is not put in straight, turn off and empty the basket if full. Then:
1 ) Press and hold control switch in reverse [R] position and attempt to back paper
out of shredder.
2 ) If shredder jams in reverse mode, press control switch to automatic [I] position
and attempt to continue shredding operation.
3 ) If shredder jams again, alternate control switch slowly between reverse [R] and
automatic [I] positions to attempt to move jammed paper completely through
s h r e d d e r.
If you are unable to clear the jam using this method, turn off and unplug the
shredder; remove wastebasket from the cabinet and carefully remove any paper
extending below the cutting cylinders; insert wastebasket and repeat jam clearing
procedure.
