When not in use •Always turn off and unplug shredder •Unplug before emptying basket •Do not open shredder head: Danger of electric shock. NOTE: Do not use flammable synthetic oil, petroleum-based products or aerosols of any kind on or near product at any time. ENGLISH ENGLISHENGLISH Set-Up This shredder will only operate 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. •Position shredder head (1) over cabinet (2). Place shredder head on top of cabinet as shown in Figure A. •Firmly push down on four corners of shredder head to “lock” shredder head into position. •Push basket (3) into shredder cabinet as shown in Figure B. Basket must be pushed firmly, so edges of basket/cabinet are aligned properly. NOTE: To disassemble, pull out basket, hold cabinet down by placing foot on bottom shelf, and firmly pull up on shredder head. Operation For convenience, your shredder is equipped with an automatic-start sensor (4). This means that when the control switch (5) is in the automatic [I] position, the shredder will start running when paper is fed into it. The shredder stops a few seconds after the paper has passed through. Because the sensor cannot tell the difference between paper and other objects, this feature can be a hazard, especially to children and pets. To avoid accidents, turn off the shredder as soon as you are finished. Unplug shredder if it will not be used for an extended period. 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 (6) will turn on. •Feed paper straight into entry (7), until the shredder automatically begins shredding; see Product Profile for limits on paper width, shreddable items, sheet capacity, etc. •Shred for no more than 10-12 minutes; shredding longer will cause shredder to turn itself off for 20 minutes to cool down. •Press control switch to off [O] position after cutting has stopped. With confetti-cut shredder, cutting continues for several seconds after paper has gone through in order to clear shredded paper from cutting cylinders. 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. 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 (PS-8C) 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 (7) with shredder in off [O] position. • Press control switch to automatic [I] position which will cause shredder to run for about 2 seconds. • Press and hold control switch 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.
