[. . . ] · Keep loose objects (jewelry, ties, long hair) away from shredder. These items and others like them may cause serious injury if they accidentally fall into the paper entry. PARTS OF THE SHREDDER A D E C B F CAUTION · Confetti cut shredders contain sharp edges on the underside of the machine. · Do not shred plastic, continuous forms, adhesive labels, transparencies, newsprint, or cardboard. Do not attempt to shred paper clips or other hard materials (except staples). [. . . ] (See "TROUBLESHOOTING" if red LED is lit. ) WARNING NEVER insert hands or fingers into paper entry as serious personal injury may result. CAUTION Do not exceed recommended sheet capacity (see "Product Usage Guide" on page 1). Slide paper straight into paper entry until the shredder automatically begins shredding. The shredder automatically stops a few seconds after shredding is complete. Continue shredding as desired to a MAXIMUM shredding time of 5-7 minutes. At this time, the machine MUST be allowed to "cool down" for a MINIMUM of 15 minutes. (See "CoolDown Cycle" for more information. ) If the shredder jams or shuts off before the maximum shredding time, see "Clearing a Jam" section for further instructions. Unplug power cord from outlet whenever shredder is unattended or not in use. Replace shredder head into position on basket. Cool-Down Cycle This shredder is protected with a special safety feature which prevents the motor from overheating with extensive use. When shredding is attempted beyond the machine's maximum running time, the shredder will automatically shut off its motor until it has cooled to an acceptable operating level. This is normal and the shredder will return to operation after the "cool-down" period. See "Product Usage Guide" (page 1) for maximum running time and related cooling or "off" time. Clearing a Jam If the shredder sheet capacity is exceeded or paper is not put in straight, a jam may result. See "Product Usage Guide" (page 1) for maximum sheet capacity for your shredder. In the case of a jam, the machine will "bog down" and fail to shred the paper. (If waste basket is full, empty it before clearing jam. ) The shredder will reverse the paper to clear the jam. If the shredder jams in reverse, move the power switch to AUTO (I) and allow to run for about five seconds. If jam does not clear, move power switch to REVERSE (R) again and allow to run for about five seconds. If necessary, use care to grasp the paper carefully and pull out to clear the jam. Once the jam is cleared, move the power switch to AUTO (I) for continued shredding or OFF (O) if shredding is complete. MAINTENANCE Confetti cut shredders require regular (monthly) oiling of the cutting blades to maintain proper operation. Failure to oil the blades regularly could result in reduced sheet capacity performance, excessive noise during operation, paper jams and possibly shredder failure. We recommend using only Powershred Lubricant #35250 (available by contacting Fellowes) or a vegetable-based oil (such as corn or canola) in a non-aerosol container with an extension nozzle. CAUTION Never use flammable synthetic oil, petroleumbased, or aerosol lubricants to oil the cutting blades.
