1
Place the shredder securely on top of the wastebasket.
2
Plug the power cord into any standard 220-volt AC outlet
3
Press the Power-button. If the shredder head is installed correctly on
the wastebasket, the Ready LED will light up.
4
If the Ready LED does not light up, the shredder head is not sitting cor-
rectly and the shredder will not run.
OPERAting tHE SHREDDER
The ON/OFF button is located on the top front of the shredder. The shred-
der has 3 modes of operation:
1
When the ON/OFF button is pressed, the shredding process will start
automatically after insertion of paper into the feed opening. The shred-
der will stop automatically when the paper has completed its travel
through the feed opening.
2
By pressing the ON/OFF button a second time the AC power is termi-
nated. This mode is recommended when the shredder is not in use for
a prolonged period of time.
3
The REV button is used to assist in the removal of a paper jam, which
reverses the shredding process prior to a completed cycle, thus clear-
ing the cutters.
4
The FWD button removes any paper left in the cutters after completion
of a shredding cycle.
SHREDDER C APACity
The QCC2 will shred up to 8 sheets of standard 80 g A4 paper. When shred-
ding small material like envelopes, credit cards or receipts, insert them
through the middle of the feed opening. Credit cards should be inserted
one at a time.

SituAtiOnS
The QCC2 is equipped with a motor overload protection device and cur-
rent limiter circuit. The normal short duty cycle for continuous shredding
at maximum capacity is 3 minutes on and 6 minutes off. The power may
terminate automatically in case of the following abnormal situations:
1
Operating the shredder at the maximum 8-sheet capacity continuously
for a prolonged period of time, e.g. More than 3 minutes without stop-
ping.
2
Exceeding the shredding capacity, e.g. Inserting more than 8 sheets of
standard 80 g A4 paper at one pass, or if the paper is not fed squarely
into the feed opening.
Both abnormal operations may result in the activation of the current limiter
circuit or the thermal motor overload protection, which terminates the
power to the shredder. A minor paper jam will terminate the power to the
motor temporarily.The current limiter circuit can be reset immediately by
removing the jam whereas a major paper jam could cause the thermal mo-
tor overload protection to terminate AC power to the motor. Never allow
the shredder to remain in a jammed condition when the AC power turned
on.
if tHiS OCCuRS yOu SHOulD
In case of a minor paper jam the OVERLOAD LED will light up:
1
Grasp the excess paper from the top and pull it out as you press REV
button. Be carefull not to place your fingers near the feed opening or
else serious harm could result.
2
Make sure that all of the excess paper has been removed from the feed
opening.
3
You are now ready to resume normal shredding.

1
Press the power button to turn OFF the shredder or unplug the power
cord from the AC outlet and wait approximately 15 minutes for the
thermal overload protection to reset.
2
Grasp the excess paper from the top and pull it out as you press REV
button. Be carefull not to place your fingers near the feed opening or
else serious harm could result.
3
Make sure that all of the excess paper has been removed from the feed
opening.
4
You are now ready to resume normal shredding.
CAutiOnS
1
Keep all loose articles of clothing, ties, jewelry, hair or other small items
away from the feed opening to prevent injury.
2
Keep shredder turned OFF or unplugged when not in use for a pro-
longed period of time.
3
Remove all paper clips and staples from paper before shredding . The
QCC2 will cut staples, however this is not recomended.
4
Do not place hands or fingers into the shredder throat as this could
result into serious injuries.
5
Continuous shredding of computer paper should not exceed 3 min-
utes. If continuous use is required at the maximum sheet capacity (8
sheets), it is recommended that shredding time should be 3 minutes
on and 6 minutes off to allow a proper cooling of the motor.
6
Always turn off or unplug the shredder prior to moving, cleaning or
emptying the wastebasket.
7
Empty the wastebasket frequently to avoid paper jams caused by
shredding material being pulled back into the cutter assembly.
8. Never allow children to shred or play with paper shredders. Serious injury
could occur!
9
Never spray canned air or any type of spray lubricant into the shredder
while shredder is plugged in as this could result into serious injuries.
10 Never place any lubricants or cleaning solutions in the paper shredder
as this could result into serious injuries.
