PRODUCT MAINTENANCE
CLEANING AUTO-START INFRARED SENSORS
Paper detection sensors are designed for maintenance free operation. However,
on rare occasions the sensors may become blocked by paper dust causing the
motor to run even if there is no paper present (Note: two paper detection sensors are
located in the center of the paper entry).
OILING SHREDDER
All shredders require oil for peak performance. If not oiled, a machine may experience
diminished sheet capacity, intrusive noise when shredding and could ultimately stop
running. To avoid these problems, we recommend you oil your shredder each time you
empty your waste bin.
FOLLOW OILING PROCEDURE BELOW AND REPEAT TWICE
