Care And Maintenance - Elcoman KOBRA 400 HS Automatic Oiler Instrucciones De Manejo

SPECIFICATIONS
Congratulations on choosing a shredder equipped with an inbuilt
system that guarantees constant automatic lubrication of the cutting
blades while the machine is in use. This ensures continuous shredding
capacity and a longer life for your machine.
The kobra 400 HS Automatic Oiler is suitable for shredding single
sheets and 9 ½" computer printouts.
The kobra 400 HS-COMBI Automatic Oiler is suitable for shredding
single sheets and 9 ½" computer printouts as well as CD-ROMS /
DVDS and CREDIT CARDS.
The kobra 400 HS-OM Automatic Oiler is only suitable for shredding
CD-ROMS / DVDS and CREDIT CARDS.
For specifications and cutting capacity, see table on page 14.
INSTALLATION
For machines with a removable plug, use an easily accessible power
socket near the machine.
Once the machine has been taken out of its packaging, open the lid (A),
take out the bag unit (B) from its tracks (C).
Remove the two safety screws used during transport (D).
Refit the plastic bag (E) in the bag unit (B) and reposition on the tracks
(C). Push the bag unit as far as it will go into the container and close
the lid (A).
WARNING: NOT inserting the bag unit as far as it will go will mean that
the lid will NOT close and all shredding functions will be blocked.
USING THE MACHINE
kobra 400 HS Automatic Oiler (see Fig.1)
After plugging the machine in to the mains, press button (G) so that it is
in the " I " position. The Stand-by light (1) and the Energy Smart bar (3)
will light up on the control panel and the machine is ready to use. If the
machine is not then used, the Energy Smart bar (3) will go out while
keeping the machine on STAND-BY at practically zero power
consumption.
Documents can now be shredded at any time.
kobra 400 HS-OM and kobra 400 HS-COMBI Automatic Oiler.
(see Fig. 2 and 3)
After plugging the machine into the mains, press button (G) so that it is
in the " I " position. The Stand-by light (1) and the Energy Smart bar (3)
will light up on the control panel and the machine will carry out an
empty shredding cycle for a few seconds, then stop, remaining ready
for operation. If the machine is not then used, the Energy Smart bar (3)
will go out while keeping the machine on STAND-BY at practically zero
power consumption.
Documents or optical media can now be shredded at any time.
With the button (G) in the "0" position, all functions are shut down.
SHREDDING SINGLE SHEETS
(a common function of the models kobra 400 HS and kobra 400 HS-
COMBI Automatic Oiler ) see Fig.1 and Fig.3
Only for the kobra 400 HS-COMBI Automatic Oiler, rotate the metal flap
(H) backwards, if it is down, to allow the sheets of paper to pass
through from the throat (4).
Inserting sheets of paper into the throat (4), switch on (if off) the Optical
Illuminated Indicator (3) and the machine will automatically begin
shredding. This is thanks to two photo cells (5) located inside the throat,
which read the passage of the paper and automatically stop the cutting
blades a few seconds after shredding has been completed.
If a quantity of paper greater than the shredding capacity of the
machine is inserted, the machine will stop shredding and reverse the
direction of the rollers for a few seconds before stopping.
Remove the unshredded paper from the throat (4) to free the photo
cells (5), then insert a smaller amount of paper in the throat (4) and the
machine will start up again automatically to finish the shredding with a
new shred cycle.
SHREDDING CD-ROMS / DVDS / CREDIT CARDS
Kobra 400 HS-OM Automatic Oiler, see Fig. 2
Raise the flap (Ha) , if down, to access the throat (4a).
When the optical media are inserted into the throat (4a), the Optical
Illuminated Indicator (3) comes on, if off, and the machine automatically
starts shredding. This is thanks to two photo cells (5) located on the
inside of the throat, which read the passage of the optical media and
automatically stop the cutting blades a few seconds after shredding has
been completed.
IMPORTANT. Only insert one CD-ROM or DVD at a time.
SHREDDING CD-ROMS / DVDS / CREDIT CARDS
Kobra 400 HS-COMBI Automatic Oiler, see Fig. 3
Raise the flap (Ha), if down, to access throat (4a).
When optical media are inserted into the throat (4a), it switches on (if off)
the Optical Illuminated Indicator (3) and the machine automatically starts
up.This is thanks to two photo cells (5a) located on the inside of the throat
which read the passage of the optical media and automatically stop the
cutting blades a few seconds after shredding has been completed.
IMPORTANT. Only insert one CD-ROM or DVD at a time.
This model comes with a special electronic blocking system which
prevents the use of the two throats (CDs and paper) at the same time.
If they are used together, shredding stops and the machine goes into
reverse for a few seconds. To restart the blades, simply free the two
throats and then only insert either paper or a CD.
It is recommended to limit jams caused by insertion of excessive
quantities of paper and to operate the machine below its maximum
shredding capacity in order to prolong the life of the mechanical
parts and the machine itself.
ENERGY SMART Function: about 12 seconds after shredding
stops, the machine is put in energy saving mode; the ENERGY
SMART Optical Illuminated Indicator (3) switches off, reducing
power consumption to virtually zero.
This function yields an annual energy saving of approximately
10 kW, reducing carbon emissions (the cause of the ozone hole) by
65 kg.
In order to automatically reactivate all the functions of the machine,
simply insert some sheets of paper or optical media into the throat
(4) or (4a) and engage the photo cells (5) or (5a). The ENERGY
SMART Optical Illuminated Indicator (3) will then come on to show
that the machine has been reactivated.
AUTOMATIC FUNCTIONS
All kobra 400 HS Automatic Oiler models come equipped with the
following automatic functions.
- PHOTO CELLS (5) or (5a) to start up the machine automatically
as soon as any sheets of paper or optical media are inserted into
the throat of the machine.
- AUTOMATIC STOP if the bag is full (E) or door is open (A) signalled
by a red light (2) on the control panel.
- MOTOR SAVER which stops the machine working if it overheats.
(If the motor saver comes on, the machine rests for at least 10/15
minutes after which time the device restarts automatically).
WARNING. If the motor saver has kicked in, the machine cannot be
activated even if the Optical Illuminated Indicator (3) is on.
- AUTOMATIC RETURN anti-jam system which, in case of
accidental insertion of a quantity of paper greater than the maximum
capacity of the model, switches off power to the electric motor and
then goes into reverse for a few seconds in order to unblock the
cutting blades, then stops.
In order to resume shredding, extract the paper from the throat in
order to free the photo cells of paper and then insert a smaller
number of sheets.
- ENERGY SMART SYSTEM which automatically reduces power
consumption to almost nothing when it is in STAND-BY mode and
about 12 seconds after the last automatic shredding cycle.
- AUTOMATIC OILER, automatic integrated system which ensures
constant lubrication of the cutting blades.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

kobra 400 HS Automatic Oiler shredders do not need any particular
care or maintenance.
It is recommended however to periodically check the amount of oil in
the container (P). A flashing red light (2) signals when oil in the
container runs out.
If empty, fill up with oil to ensure efficiency and durability of the cutting
blades.
ACCESSORY
PRINTOUT SHELF
Only on kobra 400 HS and kobra 400HS-COMBI models, it is
possible to have a convenient printout shelf (F) to facilitate shredding
continuous computer printout.
The printout holder is attached to the cover, inserting the feet of the
printout holder into the holes punched into the cover for this purpose.
