1. Set main switches to ON. Turn the shredder Key OFF/ON toggle switch on the control panel to the ON

position.

2. Press the START button. The conveyor will begin to move in the forward direction.

3. Place the material to be shredded on the feed table, then slide it onto the infeed conveyor belt, in

appropriate stacks. (Up to 650 sheets.)

NOTE: If material is accidentally placed onto the conveyor belt, DO NOT REACH FOR IT. Instead, press the

red STOP button (left side of control panel) or the Safety Stop Bar (front of feed table). When the shredder

stops, press and hold the REVERSE button. The conveyor will operate in reverse, allowing safer access to the

materials. The shredder will stop when the REVERSE button is released. To resume shredding, press STOP

button, then the START button.

If the shred capacity of the machine is exceeded (too large a stack of paper, etc), the shredder will stop

automatically. To resume shredding:

1. Push and hold the REVERSE button until the paper or other material backs completely out of the shredder.

2. Press the red STOP button or the SAFETY BAR on the front of the machine, then divide the materials into

smaller stacks.

3. Press the START button. The conveyor and cutting blades will begin to move.

4. Continue shredding, feeding less paper or fewer materials at a time.

If the shredder is repeatedly overloaded, the motor can overheat, which will cause the shredder to switch off

automatically. To resume shredding:

1. Allow the motor to cool down for approximately 20 - 30 minutes before using.

2. Once the motor has cooled sufciently, resume shredding by following standard operating procedure (see

Operation).

To maintain optimum performance and allow constant operation, avoid repeatedly

overloading the shredder. This will prevent time-consuming reversing cycles, and will

provide the highest possible throughput.
