Insert up to 5 pages of 20lb paper into the shredder, and the unit will automatically shred them.
NOTES:
•If inserting small documents, insert them in the center of the shredder as the sensor is located there.
•Do not attempt to insert more than 5 pages at a time, as it will shorten the life of the shredder.
