Waste Box Full:
•Press rocker switch to “O” to stop the cutting system.
•Remove wastebox from inside cabinet and empty.
•Return wastebox, close door and
resume operation.
Door Ajar:
•Make sure door is completely closed.
•If the door is opened while the motor
is running, after closing the door, set the rocker switch to the “O” position and then to the “I” position to resume operation.

Paper Jam:
• Press rocker switch to “O” to stop the cutting system.
•Press and hold down rocker switch in “R” to reverse the cutting
system and back out jammed material (paper is pushed out)
•If the jam persists, slowly move the power switch back and forth
between forward (I) and reverse (R), always stopping for a moment in the off position (O). Do not switch the shredder rapidly between forward and reverse to force material through the shredder. Rapid rocking develops tremendous forces that can damage your shredder.
•Continue shredding in smaller quantities so as not to jam the machine further.
