Sincerely, James Fellowes Chairman & CEO Contents Product Profile . . 6 2 ENGLISH Product Profile This product is built to shred paper, staples, small paper clips, credit cards, and CD's (PS70-2CD in CD entry only). [. . . ] Unplug shredder if it will not be used for an extended period. Operation To shred · Plug in shredder with control switch (5) in off [O] position · Press control switch to automatic [I] position; cutting cylinders will run for 1-2 seconds to signal readiness and green light (4) will turn on. PAPER · Feed paper straight into entry (1), until the shredder automatically begins shredding; see Product Profile for limits on paper width, shreddable items, sheet capacity, etc. · Shred for no more than 15-20 minutes; shredding longer will cause shredder to turn itself off for 25 minutes to cool down. · Press control switch to off [O] position after cutting has stopped. CDs (PS70-2CD only) · Feed one CD at a time, straight into CD entry (10), releasing when shredding begins. NOTE: For safety reasons, CDs should only be shredded using the CD entry (10) In case of a paper jam, which may occur if the sheet capacity is exceeded or if paper is not put in straight, turn off and empty the basket if full. Then: 1) Press and hold control switch in reverse [R] position and attempt to back paper out of shredder. 2) If shredder jams in reverse mode, press control switch to automatic [I] position and attempt to continue shredding operation. 3) If shredder jams again, alternate control switch slowly between reverse [R] and automatic [I] positions to attempt to move jammed paper completely through shredder. ENGLISH If you are unable to clear the jam using this method, turn off and unplug the shredder; remove wastebasket from the cabinet and carefully remove any paper extending below the cutting cylinders; insert wastebasket and repeat jam clearing procedure. Maintenance Regular emptying of the basket is important to ensure the smooth operation of the cutting cylinders. If you can see paper in the basket window (7), turn off the shredder, pull out basket and empty basket contents. Regular oiling of the confetti-cut model (PS80C-2) is also necessary to ensure proper performance. If you are running the shredder at or near capacity, we recommend oiling it monthly. Using Fellowes Powershred Lubricant #35250 or other non-aerosol vegetable-based oil in a long-nozzle container: · Apply oil over full width of paper entry (1) with shredder in off (0) position. · Press control switch (5) to automatic (I) position which will cause shredder to run for about 2 seconds. · Press and hold control switch (5) in reverse (R) position for 3-5 seconds. · Repeat above automatic (I) and reverse (R) sequence three times. REMINDER: Do not use flammable synthetic oil, petroleum-based products or aerosol lubricants of any kind in or near the shredder at any time.
