Introduction
Thank you for choosing this shredder from Swingline. We are sure it will
serve you well, but please take a little time to study these instructions
to ensure you get the best out of your machine.
Swingline Jam-Free Technology*
Swingline Shredders will only shred stacks of paper that are within the
shredders sheet capacity.
Sensors in the paper feed area measure the thickness of paper about to
be shredded. The ability to shred or not is communicated through red
and green lighting. Green means that the stack of paper is within the
shredder's sheet capacity and OK to shred. Red means that you have
too much paper, remove some sheets in order to shred.
Given that you are unable to shred more sheets of paper than the
shredder is capable of shredding, paper jams are prevented.
This prevents time wasted through reversing paper and unblocking jams
not to mention the mess it can create.
IMPORTANT! Do not attempt to shred more paper while paper is already
being shredded. By attempting to force paper down the front or back of
a batch of paper that is being pulled into the machine, you can jam the
shredder. The anti-jam technology will work reliably if used
as instructed.
*Jam Free when used in accordance with this instruction manual.
