intimus POWER 16.50 S - Manual (Page 12)

OPERATING THE MACHINE (Fig. 5):
The procedure is as follows:
1. Insert the key (included in delivery) in the locking
switch (2) and turn to the right.
2. Move the main switch (1) to position „1“.
After a 2 second pause the „Ready“ lamp (7)
comes on.
3. Press the „Cutting system forward“ button
(3).
The cutting system and conveyor belt now
begin to run.
The „cutting sysytem forward“ lamp (6) comes
on.
Attention: The machine will only operate when
a) the emergency-stop rail (14) has been released
(pull out the red rail on the feed table),
b) the locking switch (2) has been released,
c) the main switch (1) has been switched on
(position „1“), and
d) the shredder bin (23) is fully docked.
MATERIAL FEED:
The operator may not stand higher
than the machine itself stands, when
feeding paper to the machine!
Standing on an raised platform (such as
pallets or boxes placed in front of the
machine) reduces the distance between
operator and cutting system to a level
which does not meet the required safety
standard.
Feed material for the shredder can consist of
stacks of smooth paper (up to about 550 sheets,
depending on the type and size of paper); and
also crumpled paper and cardboard. Place any
material to be shredded on the moving conveyor
belt which feeds it to the cutting system.
It is advisable to place stacked paper diagonally
on the belt. In this way, the corner of the stack will
be fed to the cutting system first, thus avoiding a
sudden overload.
Never feed the shredder with a quan-
tity of paper exceeding the maximum
indicated in the technical data!
Should the machine become overloaded,
follow the instructions under „AUTOMATIC
RESPONSE IN CASE OF OVER-
LOADING“.
FEEDING WITH COMPLETE BINDERS!
Shredders equipped with a cutting system with 7.8
x 55 mm or 11.8 x 55 mm cutting width, can also
be fed with complete binders (incl. metal parts).
In this case the binder should be opened and the
contents spread out equally.
Important note: The removing of the metal parts
beforehand makes the recycling of the shredded
material possible and ensures a longer life of the
cutting system.
AUTOMATIC RESPONSE
IN CASE oF „oVERLoADING“
In case you accidentally overload the shredder,
it will automatically alleviate the problem as
follows:
1. The cutting system becomes jammed.
2. The cutting system and the conveyor belt run
briefly in reverse, thereby freeing the material
to be shredded.
3. The cutting system and the conveyor automati-
cally switch back to forward mode.
The machine repeats this process until the all the
material has been shredded satisfactorily.
AUTOMATIC STOP
IN CASE OF FULL SHREDDER BIN:
The machine switches off automatically when
the shredder bin becomes full. This is indicated
by the „Shredder bin full“ lamp (9) and is also
accompanied by an acoustic signal.
To switch off the acoustic signal, push the „Cutting
system stop“ button (4) briefly.
Then proceed as follows to empty the shredder
bin.
EMPTYING THE SHREDDER BIN (Fig. 8):
To empty the shredder bin, grip the bin (23) by
the stirrup (24), pulling it out from under the
shredder.
Then, pull up the stirrup, open out the front panel,
(25) and remove the full plastic sack.
After placing a new sack in the bin, close the front
panel and push the bin back under the shredder.
You are now ready to resume shredding.
Note: The machine will only function if the shredder
bin is in place.
When the shredder bin is not in place, the „Shred-
der bin not in place“ indicator lamp (9) comes on,
indicating that the shredder cannot be operated.
