• NEVER insert hands or fingers into paper entry

as serious personal injury may result.

• THIS MACHINE IS NOT A TOY. Keep children and pets

away from shredder AT ALL TIMES as serious

injury may result. Always unplug shredder when

not in use.

• Keep loose objects (jewelry, ties, long hair) away from

shredder. These items and others like

them may cause serious injury if they

accidentally fall into the paper entry.

• Confetti cut shredders contain sharp edges on the

underside of the machine. Use caution when positioning

the shredder head onto the basket.

• 4 folded sheets per pass to avoid jams.

• Do not shred plastic, continuous forms, adhesive labels,

transparencies, glossy paper, newsprint, or cardboard.

• This shredder will shred paper, staples and credit cards.

Do not attempt to shred paper clips or other hard materials

(except those noted above).

• Do not place shredder near or over a heat source or water.

• Always turn off and unplug unit before moving or cleaning

and when not in use.

• Do not insert aerosol cleaners into or around the shredder.

Some agents may combust, causing serious injury.

This product features an auto-start sensor. This sensor will turn on the cutting blades whenever anything is inserted into the paper entry (while the power switch is in the AUTO p o s i t i o n ) . For the safety of pets and children, we recommend always moving the power switch to OFF and unplugging

whenever the shredder is unattended or not in use.

1.Assemble shredder (see ASSEMBLY).

2.Remove any paper clips or other foreign objects (except staples) from paper. If folding paper to fit paper entry, adjust sheet capacity appropriately.

Do not attempt to shred paper clips or other hard materials (except staples) with this machine. Extensive use of paper clips or other hard materials will result in damage to the cutting system and will void the manufacturer's warranty.

3.Be sure power switch is in OFF position. Plug shredder into proper power supply outlet.

4.Move power switch to AUTO position. When the unit is turned on and in standby mode, the shredder is ready to be fed paper through the paper entry.

NEVER insert hands or fingers into paper entry as serious personal injury may result.

NOTE: This shredder will operate only 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.

To assemble shredder

This shredder contains sharp edges on the underside of the shredder head. Use caution when positioning the shredder head onto the basket..

1 . Remove protective corrugated cover on back of shredder and caution label on top of shredder.

2 . Position shredder head over basket as shown in Figure 1.

3 . Align slot on front of shredder head with the tab on the inside front or back of the basket.

4 . Lower shredder head onto basket (while maintaining safety tab/slot alignment).

• Never use flammable synthetic oil, petroleum-based or

aerosol lubricants to oil the cutting blades. Some agents

may combust, causing serious

injury.

• Do not use canned air on shredder.

• Do not use this product if it or the cord has been damaged

in any way.

• Do not open the cover for any reason. Doing so can

expose you to dangerous voltages and will void

your warranty.

Power Cord Care

Place power cord in an easily accessible position, because it is the main disconnect switch.

Do not place machine where adults, children or animals may walk on the cord.

Do not rest anything on the power cord.

If an extension cord is used, be sure that all products plugged into the extension cord do not exceed the extension cord ampere rating.

Do not exceed recommended sheet capacity. See P r o d u c t Usage Guide (page 2).

5.Slide paper straight into paper entry until the shredder automatically begins shredding. (if paper is wider than paper entry, fold paper in half before shredding)

The shredder automatically stops a few seconds after shredding is complete.

If the shredder jams or shuts off before the maximum shredding time, see Clearing a Jam for more information.

6.Move power switch to off position when shredding is complete.

7.Unplug power cord from outlet whenever shredder is unattended or not in use.

8.Check basket to see if it is full. If full, remove shredder head and empty basket contents. Replace shredder head onto basket.
