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 (6) 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 (8)
. This
means that when the control switch (5) is on automatic [I] position, the shredder will start
running when you put paper into it and stop a few seconds after the paper has passed
through. Because the sensor cannot tell the difference between paper and other objects,
this feature can also 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 (4) will turn on.
PAPER
•Feed paper straight into entry (1), until the shredder automatically begins shredding; see
Product Profile for limits on paper width, shreddable items, sheet capacity, etc.
•Shred for no more than 15-20 minutes; shredding longer will cause shredder to turn itself
off for 25 minutes to cool down.
•Press control switch to off [O] position after cutting has stopped.
CDs (PS70-2CD only)
•Feed one CD at a time, straight into CD entry (10), releasing when shredding begins.
Shredder will stop when CD has passed through entry. CDs will be shredded into small
particles.
NOTE:
For safety reasons, CDs should only be shredded using the CD entry
(10)
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 auto-
matic [I] positions to attempt to move jammed paper completely through shredder.
