Safety & Maintenance of PS60CC, PS80, DM-C

The PS60CC, PS80, DM-C cross cut shredder creates small particles that, if allowed to accumulate, cause the shredder to jam. Follow these simple precautions to significantly reduce the likelihood that particles will accumulate and to keep your cross cut shredder operating at peak efficiency:

•Do not allow the basket to overfill. The power of this shredder will compress paper particles into the basket even when it is full. The life of your shredder may be reduced if the cutting system continues to operate with particles packed around it.

•Reverse the shredder often. Reversing helps the shredder flush out small cut particles. Empty basket if it is full before reversing.

Oil the cutters:

When...

•Every second or third time you empty the basket;

•If the shredder’s cutting capacity is diminished;

•If the cutting cylinders stop with a squeak or a rubbing sound after power is removed.

How...

Use Powershred Lubricant #35250 or a suitable alternative with an extension nozzle. Alternatives can be

3 in 1 or Sewing Machine Oil. Oil must be non-flammable material and a non-degreaser! Do not use a can spray. Accelerants are combustible. See order form in this manual.

Squeeze the lubricant across the full width of the cutters and then turn the machine on and run the cutting system forward for a few seconds. (Cross-cut machines with auto start: block the photo eye with a piece of paper in order to run the cutting system forward).

Then, depress the reverse button and run the cutting system for a few seconds. Repeat the procedure.

Safety of PS60CC, PS80, DM-C

•Do not operate PS60CC, PS80, DM-C without the basket it was shipped with.

•Do not attempt to defeat the safety interlock switch.

•PS 80 only: Do not use without the safety flap. Injury may result.

Paper Jams

	1.	Immediately return power switch to OFF (O) position.
	2.	Depress power switch to the REVERSE (R) position until the jammed paper has been
		fully removed from the cutter.
All	3.	DO NOT PULL ON PAPER. Damage to the drive system could occur.
	4. If the REVERSE (R) function will not operate when pressed, the internal overload
Models		protection device has been activated. Release the power switch from the REVERSE (R)

	POSITION, wait 15 seconds and repeat.
5.	In the machine jams in reverse, unplug the unit and cut all excess paper off the top
	and bottom of the machine before repeating the jam-clearing procedure.
6.	Shred smaller quantities. See sheet capacity (Table A).

Overload Protection

This shredder is protected by a built-in thermal overload device that serves to protect the motor from overuse. When continuous shredding is conducted for an extended period of time, the shredder will automatically turn itself off to cool down. When shredding is automatically stopped, allow the unit to stand for about 30 minutes before using it again.

Important Note

This paper shredder is not intended to shred high volumes of paper. Please refer to the specifications for the recommended daily usage and sheet capacity of this shredder. Please note that if the paper is wider than the entry, and you fold it to fit, the paper thickness increases and the recommended capacity may be exceeded.
