Capacity of the document shredder:
The GENIE 240 S shreds up to 6 sheets of paper (DIN A4, 80 g). The paper width may comprise
up to 22 cm. When shredding small paper sizes such as letters or credit card receipts, please
insert them into the middle of the shredding slot.
Please ensure that never more than the above-mentioned maximum quantity is inserted in
the shredder. Otherwise, the device may sustain damage.
Protection against paper jams and overloading:
The GENIE 240 S is equipped with a motor overload guard. To protect the machine well, we
suggest the user to operate it in this way: work 2 minutes then rest 60 minutes. Under the
following conditions, the current feed to the unit's motor is interrupted:
•
Continual operation of the document shredder with maximum capacity for a prolonged period,
e.g., longer than 2 minutes without interruption.
•
Overrunning the shredding capacity e.g., adding more than 6 sheets of paper (80 g) in one
operation or in the event the paper is not inserted lengthwise into the feed slot.
Under the above-mentioned conditions, the automatic overload guard of the motor is
triggered, whereupon the current feed to the device is interrupted.
In such a case, please take the following steps:
1.
Switch the main switch to OFF. Disconnect the main plug from the AC socket to avoid the risk of
serious injuries and wait at least 60 minutes until the overload guard has reset. Now tear off
excess paper from the top of the shredder or remove it.
2.
Reconnect the main plug to the AC socket and switch to REV. Pull the remaining paper away
from the shredding blades. If necessary, repeat this step.
