the shredder's red LED will light and the shredder will automatically
stop until the jam is cleared.
To clear a jam:
OPERATION
This product features an auto-start sensor. This
sensor will turn on the cutting blades whenever
1. Move the power switch to the REVERSE (R) position. (NOTE: If
waste basket is full, empty it before clearing jam.) The shredder
will reverse the paper to clear the jam.
2. 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. Repeat this procedure until the jam is
cleared. If necessary, use care to grasp the paper carefully and
pull out to clear the jam.
anything is inserted into the paper entry (while the power switch is in
the AUTO position). For the safety of pets and children, we recom-
mend always moving the power switch to OFF and unplugging when-
ever the shredder is unattended or not in use.
1. Assemble shredder (see "ASSEMBLY").
2. Remove any large paper clips or other foreign objects (except sta-
ples and small paper clips) from paper. If folding paper to fit paper
entry, adjust sheet capacity appropriately.
Do not attempt to shred large paper clips or other
hard materials (except staples and small paper
3. Once the jam is cleared, move the power switch to AUTO (I) for
continued shredding or OFF (O) if shredding is complete.
clips) with this machine. Extensive use of large paper clips or other hard
materials will result in damage to the cutting system and will void the
manufacturer's warranty.
MAINTENANCE
3. Be sure power switch is in OFF (O) position. Plug shredder into
proper power supply outlet.
4. Move power switch to AUTO (I) position.
Confetti-cut shredders require regular (monthly) oiling of the cutting
blades to maintain proper operation. Failure to oil the blades regular-
ly 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.
When the unit is turned on and in standby mode (green LED
lights), the shredder is ready to be fed paper through the paper
entry. (See "TROUBLESHOOTING" if red LED is lit.)
NEVER insert hands or fingers into
paper entry as serious personal injury may result.
Never use flammable synthetic oil, petroleum-
based, or aerosol lubricants to oil the cutting
blades. Some agents may combust, causing serious injury.
Do not exceed recommended sheet capacity
(see "Product Usage Guide" on front cover of this
manual).
To oil the cutting blades:
1. From the top of the shredder, squeeze the recommended lubri-
cant across the full width of the blades.
2. Move the power switch to AUTO (I) position and allow the blades
to run at least 3 seconds.
3. Move the power switch to REVERSE (R) position and allow it to run
for at least 3 seconds.
5. Slide paper straight into paper entry until the shredder automatical-
ly begins shredding. The shredder automatically stops a few sec-
onds after shredding is complete. Continue shredding as desired to
a MAXIMUM shredding time of 10-12 minutes. At this time, the
machine MUST be allowed to "cool down" for a MINIMUM of 20
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.
6. Move power switch to OFF (O) position when shredding is com-
plete.
4. Repeat steps 2-3 above at least 3 times.
7. Unplug power cord from outlet whenever shredder is unattended
or not in use.
8. Look through viewer to see if basket is full. If full, pull out bas-
ket and empty basket contents. Replace basket into cabinet.
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 shred-
der 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 of "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. In the case of a jam,

the cutters clear of paper particles and
reduce the chances of a jam.
