Paper Jams & Motor Overload Situations
The machine is equipped with an automatic motor reversal device and a
motor overload protection circuit. The normal short duty cycle for continuous
shredding at maximum capacity is 20 minutes on and 40 minutes off, The
shredder will either automatically reverse the paper out of the shredder throat
or power may terminate automatically in case of the following abnormal
situations:
1. Operating the shredder at the maximum 18-sheet capacity continuously for
a prolonged period of time, eg. more than 20 minutes without stopping.
2. Exceeding the shredding capacity, eg. Inserting more than 18 sheets of
paper in one pass, or if the paper is not fed squarely into the feed opening.
Both abnormal operations may result in the activation of the automatic reversal
of the paper or the thermal motor overload protection, which terminates the
power to the shredder. A minor paper jam may cause the paper to feed in the
opposite, direction and be ejected from the feed opening. A major paper jam
could cause the thermal motor overload protection to terminate AC power to
the motor and turn on the Overload light. Never allow the shredder to remain
in a jammed condition with the AC power turned on. If this occurs you should:
In case of a minor paper jam:
The automatic paper reverse feature should eject the minor paper jam from
the feed opening. Remove the unshredded portion of paper from the top and
clear any excess paper shreds from the feed opening .The Overload Light
should go out and normal shredding can resume.
In case of a major paper jam:
1. Turn off or unplug the power cord from the AC outlet and wait at least 40
minutes for the thermal overload protection to reset.
2. Plug in the AC power cord and depress the Power Button. If paper was left
inside the feed opening prior to the overload, grasp the excess paper from the
top and pull it out as you depress the Rev Button. Be careful not to place your
fingers near the feed opening or serious harm could result.
3. You are now ready to resume normal shredding.
