Safety First
Operation, maintenance and service requirements
are covered in the instruction manual. Read the entire
instruction manual before operating the shredder.
This means keep children away from shredder.
This means do not use aerosol sprays anywhere near
the unit.
Auto shred and stop
Place the paper or credit card into the centre of the entry
1
slot - shredding will start automatically (fig 2).
Paper smaller than A4 in width should be placed in the
2
middle of the entry slot to ensure the shredder works
automatically.
The cutters will stop rotating automatically after finishing
3
shredding
Do not shred more than the stated sheet capacity at a time.
4
Do not attempt to shred more than one credit card at a time.
5
If too many sheets are inserted at a time, the shredder can
6
become jammed. If the shredder becomes jammed, switch
the button to REV position to clear the jam by reversing the
paper. If the paper has become so entangled in the cutter
that it can't be reversed, turn off the power and pull out
the paper by hand. Restart with fewer sheets and feed the
nonshredded end of the paper in first.
If the paper shredder will not start, please check the following:
Is the machine plugged in correctly?
1
Is the switch pushed to the 'ON/AUTO' position?
2
Is the machine jammed with paper?
3
Has the motor overheated?

This machine does not require lubricant. ACCO Brands Europe
accepts no liability for product performance or safety should
any lubricant be used on any part(s) of this machine.
This means no oil lubricant.
This means be careful of ties and other loose clothing
which could become entangled in the cutting head.
This means don't reach into the feed opening of the
cutting head. This could hurt you.
This means you should be careful because long hair
can become entangled in the cutting head. This could
hurt you.
m
CAUTION: Don't let the machine operate
continuously for more than 3 minutes. When
the motor has overheated, the thermal safety
switch will start working automatically. If the
thermal switch trips, do not use the machine for
about 30 minutes while the thermal sensitive
safety switch cools down so the shredder can
be safely used again.
• Never insert fingers into the entry slot of the
shredder.
• Turn the power off immediately if your hair, tie
or sleeve becomes entangled in the shredder.
• Empty the shredder bin when it is full
otherwise the shredder's performance will be
adversely affected. Operating the shredder
with a full shredder bin can result in paper
jamming in the cutters, which will increase
the machine's noise level.
• Don't force down shredder paper in the bin
using your feet.
In case of jammed paper, please follow the procedure below:
Check if the bin is too full with paper - the bin should be
1
emptied regularly to avoid paper becoming jammed in the
cutters.
Slide the switch to 'REV' position to reverse the jammed
2
paper.
If the paper is so jammed that it will not come out in reverse
3
function, slowly push the switch between 'REV' and ON/
AUTO. Don't do this too quickly as this can damage the
shredder.
WARNING – Do not under any circumstances use any metal
4
objects (scissors, letter openers etc.) in an attempt to clear
the entry – this model has mains voltage inside the casing,
which could cause serious injury.
