Clearing A Jam; Power Cord Care; Care And Maintenance - Omnitech NXC122PA Manual Del Usuario

Clearing a jam:

••
If paper is not inserted properly into the shredder,
or if the sheet capacity is exceeded, a jam may
result. The shredder will automatically stop until
the jam is cleared. To clear a jam:
• Move the power switch to the REVERSE (REV)
position, and grasp the excess paper from the top
and pull it out. Be careful not to place your
hands near the feed opening to prevent any
injuries. Once the jammed paper is cleared,
normal shredding operation can resume. (If
wastebasket is full, unplug the machine and
empty the basket before clearing the jam).
• If the shredder jams while in reverse, move the
power switch to AUTO and let the shredder run
for about five seconds. If jam does not clear,
move power switch to REVERSE again and run for
five seconds. Repeat this procedure until jam is
cleared. If the jam cannot be cleared following this
procedure, unplug the unit and carefully remove
the jammed paper manually.
• Once the jam is cleared, move the power switch to
AUTO to continue shredding, or to OFF if shredding
is complete.
Overheating:
••
The motor overheat circuit has been tripped
when the overheat LED light illuminates RED. This
circuit terminates power automatically if the unit
is shredding continuously beyond the machine's
maximum running time for over 2 minutes. This is
necessary to protect the motor from overheating.
To reset the motor overheat circuit turn the unit
off and wait about 30 minutes. Then turn the unit
back on and resume normal operation.
Make sure to periodically empty the waste
receptacle to avoid overloading the basket and
damaging the cutting mechanism.

Power cord care

••
• Do not lift unit by the power cord.
• Operate shredder from the power source indicated
on the serial label. If you are unsure of the power
source, consult your dealer or local power company.
• Since the power cord serves as the disconnect
switch, make sure the shredder is plugged into an
easily accessible wall outlet. The power cord cannot
be replaced. If the power cord is damaged, the
shredder should be discarded.
• Do not rest anything on the power cord.
• Do not place machine where persons may trip over
or walk on the power cord.
• If an extension cord is used, make sure that the total
ampere ratings of the products plugged into the
extension cord do not exceed the extension cord
ampere rating, and that the total of all products
plugged into the wall outlet does not exceed 15 amp.

Care and maintenance

••
Shredder lubricant is recommended for your
shredder and will lengthen the lifespan of your
machine. Apply lubricants after 30 minutes of
shredding or a minimum of twice per month to
eliminate build-up on your shredder's cutting heads
and allow your machine to run at
maximum performance.
