FD 8502AF AutoFeed
Cross Cut Paper Shredder
Oil Indicator
The “MANUAL” LED will ash after every four (4) hours of operation as an indicator to
oil the shredder cutting blades. The LED will continue to ash until oiled. NOTE: the
shedder will still operate when the LED is ashing but at a decreased load capacity.
TO OIL: Spread shredder oil onto the cutters through the feed opening, and allow the
oil to sit for a few minutes to permeate the cutting blades, then press the “REV” button
and hold for ve seconds. “MANUAL” and “REV” LED indicators on control panel will
light. The shredder will operate in reverse for one minute, then the “AUTO” LED will light
indicating the shredder is ready.
Maintenance
• Disconnect power by pulling power cord plug from wall outlet.
• To clean the exterior, wipe the surface with a soft cloth. If the surface is very dirty, use a
neutral detergent, then wipe again with a soft cloth.
CAUTION:
• Never put water directly on the surface of the shredder.
• Never clean the case with benzene or thinner, since it will cause discoloration.
• Do not dismantle the shredder. Contact your Formax Dealer for service.
Safety Devices and Other Features
Automatic Reverse Rotation
When too much paper is inserted, the cutter stops operating and automatically rotates in
reverse to discharge the jammed paper. The shredder will beep. Reduce the amount of
paper and restart the operation.
Door Switch
If the door is open, the shredder will not operate.
Automatic Stop
When the waste bin is full, the “FULL” LED will light and the cutter stops operation.
Open the door, remove the waste bin and empty. Replace the waste bin, close the door,
and press START to resume operation.
Automatic Power Shut-Off
If the shredder operates continuously for more than 30 minutes, the power is
automatically shut off.
If the motor is overloaded, the “STOP” LED will ash until it cools down. When the
ashing stops the shredder is ready to be used again.
Safety Precautions, continued
•Unplug the shredder when it is being moved, or if it is not in use for an extended
period of time.
•Do not disconnect the power by pulling only the cord.
•Keep the shredder away from direct sunlight.
•Do not sit on the shredder or place anything on top of it.
•Never open the xed switch or cover.

When the power switch on the right side of the shredder (see below) is initially turned
on, the shredder is automatically in ECO Mode. This energy-saving feature puts the

will light. Insert paper to be shredded. Three minutes after shredding,
the cutter automatically stops rotating.
4. Reverse Operation
Push the REV button and the “REV” LED will light and cutters will
