Your Shredder has been designed for a low level of mainte- nance, involving routine cleaning and inspection. The motor of the Shredder is maintenance free and requires no atten- tion. For the best results the blades must be kept sharp at all times. The blades have dramatically less cutting power when blunt.
The Shredder will tear rather than cut when the blades are blunt. When this occurs rotate the double sided blades or replace the blades immediately.
WARNING
Before attempting any maintenance switch the machine off and disconnect the power cord.
5-1. V-CUTTER MAINTENANCE
•Switch the machine off and disconnect the power cord ensuring all moving parts are completely stopped.
•Wear gloves when attempting any maintenance to the cutting blades.
JAMMING If blades become jammed see disassembly.
DISASSEMBLY
1.Loosen discharge chute access knobs and remove the top cover assembly.
2.Rotate the cutter base counter clockwise and wedge a piece of wood between the cutter base and cutting chamber wall so as to stop the cutting base from rotat- ing. (Fig. 5-1A)
3.Remove the center hold down bolt by turning it count- er clockwise using a 16 mm wrench.
4.Remove the square washer, square bushing, V-cutter to expose cutter base.
Take extreme care not to come in contact with cutting blades.
If discharge chute becomes clogged or cutting blades become jammed, under no circumstances should you place your hands in discharge chute to try to clear obstruction, as this will lead to serious injury.

5-2. SHREDDING BLADES MAINTENANCE
WARNING
Before removing Top Hopper knob, insure the machine is switched off, the red safety switch and extension lead is removed and wait until the machine comes to a complete stop.
To inspect or replace the double sided shredding blades there is no need to remove the cutter base. To remove sim- ply undo the counter sunk screws with the 6mm hex wrench supplied with the machine and turn them through 180˚ These blades are double ground and can be used on both sides. When blunt on both sides replace and insure they are screwed in tightly.
ASSEMBLY This is carried out in the reverse sequence to that of disassembly but with careful inspection of all com- ponents. Ensure that cutter base is assembled with the scraping plates facing down towards the motor and that the square washer is situated under the head of the cen- ter hold down bolt. (Fig. 5-2A)
Before replacing the top cover assembly ensure that the V- cutter is positioned as shown in (Fig. 5-2B) Replace the top cover assembly and secure tightly the discharge chute access knob. If discharge chute access knob are not tight the motor will not start due to the motor lock out switch not being activated.
