User manual FELLOWES SHREDMATE-2002

[. . . ] · Do not use this product if it or the cord has been damaged in any way. Doing so can expose you to dangerous voltages and will void your warranty. A. Shredder head ASSEMBLY NOTE: This shredder will operate only when used with the supplied basket. The supplied basket has a built-in safety feature which prevents the shredder from operating if used with any other basket or if improperly assembled. To assemble shredder: This shredder contains sharp edges on the underside of the shredder head. [. . . ] NEVER insert hands or fingers into paper entry as serious personal injury may result. Do not exceed recommended sheet capacity (see "Product Usage Guide" on front cover of this manual). Slide paper straight into paper entry until the shredder automatically begins shredding. (if paper is wider than paper entry, fold paper in half before shredding) The shredder automatically stops a few seconds after shredding is complete. Continue shredding as desired to a MAXIMUM shredding time of 3 minutes. At this time, the machine MUST be allowed to "cool down" for a MINIMUM of 5 minutes. (See "Cool-Down 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 onto 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 or "off" period. See "Product Usage Guide" on front panel for maximum running time and related cooling "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" on front panel for maximum sheet capacity for your shredder. (NOTE: 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 and shredder will run for about two seconds. If jam does not clear, move power switch to REVERSE again and allow to run for about three seconds. If necessary, grasp the paper carefully and pull out to clear the jam. Once the jam is cleared, move the power switch to AUTO for continued shredding or OFF if shredding is complete. TROUBLESHOOTING Shredder will not operate. Shredder has exceeded the maximum run time and requires a "cool-down" time. Turn shredder head around and lower back onto basket to use back-up safety tab on other side of basket.
