Safety First
Shredders are safe to use as long as you take a few safety
precautions.
tEnsure the machine is plugged into an easily accessible
power outlet, and ensure the cable is not likely to trip up a
passer by.
tAny attempt to repair this unit by unqualified personnel will
invalidate the warranty. Please return to supplier.
tUnplug your shredder before moving it or when it is not in
use for an extended period of time.
tDo not operate with a damaged power supply cord or plug,
after it malfunctions, or after it has been damaged in any
manner.
tDo not overload electrical outlets beyond capacity as this can
result in fire or electrical shock.
tThe socket-outlet should be installed near the equipment and
shall be easily accessible.
tDo not alter the attachment plug. The plug is configured for
the appropriate electrical supply.
tDo not use near water.
tDo not use aerosol dusters or cleaners.

Mercury Anti-Jam Technology
Mercury Shredders will only shred stacks of paper that are
within the shredder’s sheet capacity. For example, a shredder
with a capacity of 22 sheets will not allow the shredding of
more sheets than this.
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 shredders 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.
Rare Occasions of Jamming
In the unlikely event of the shredder jamming, use the reverse
function to unblock the shredder (see Reverse function section).
Alternating between the reverse and continuous forward
functions will help unblock the feed area.
Door Open Safety Function
If the door is opened during shredding as a safety precaution
the shredder will instantly stop, and the door open symbol/
indicator will glow red.
Over Heating
If small office models (RSS2030, RSX1630, RSM1130,
RSS2232 and RSX1632) are used continuously for long
periods of time the shredder may overheat. If this occurs the
thermometer symbol on the indicator panel will illuminate.
When the shredder is ready to be used again the thermometer
symbol will not illuminate.
RSM1130, RDM1150 and RDSM750 only.
This means do not shred CDs.
This means do not shred credit cards.
This means do not shred staples.
This means do not shred paper clips.

This means the door is open.
This means the bin is full.
This means no aerosols.
This means machine is cooling down.
This means oil level.
This means oiling in operation.
Auto Oiling Initial Setup
The shredder is designed to automatically lubricate the cutting
mechanism as required to ensure the product continues to
work to its maximum performance and to extend the product
life. Before turning on the machine for the first time, please
open the oil reservoir cap on the head of the shredder (j) and
pour in the 60ml bottle of oil provided as standard. This is
sufficient to allow the shredder to start for the first time and
to operate continuously for approximately 1 hour shredding
before the reservoir will need refilling. Press and hold down the
Auto button (f) for 5 seconds to start the pump and prime the
system. This operation is only required the very first time the
shredder is used. When the ‘Oil Refill’ indicator is illuminated
, flip up the oil reservoir cap (j) and refill the oil reservoir
using a bottle of standard Rexel oil (1760049). The automatic
oiling operation lasts approximately 2 seconds and you
will hear the distribution pump during this time. Auto-oiling
operates after 15 minutes of shredding.
(Applicable to RDX1850, RDM1150, RDSM750, RDX2070,
RDM1170, RDSM770 models only)

Reverse Function
Should you wish to reverse the shredding direction whilst
shredding a document, a reverse button (f) has been fitted
for your convenience.
By pressing the reverse button the shredding cutters will
change direction allowing the retrieval of the document
being shredded. The anti-jam indicator will turn to red.
The reverse function will only run whilst the button is being
pressed. When the reverse button has been released the
shredder will revert to stand by mode.
To turn back to auto mode, press the auto button (e).
CD and Credit Card Shredding
Models RSM1130, RDM1150, RDM1170, RDSM750 and
RDSM770 can not shred CD’s or credit cards, therefore this
section is not applicable to these three models. All other
Mercury models can shred CD’s and credit cards as follows:
A separate CD tray is provided to collect the shredded CD
shards. Ensure that this is correctly mounted onto the bin
rail or internal bin (small office models) before shredding
CDs or credit cards. CD and credit card shards should be
disposed of separately to paper.
Pull up the CD guide (h) located in the centre of the feed
area and flip it into position over the shredder mouth.
For credit card shredding, switch the shredder to auto mode
and insert the card in line with the arrow marked on the
shredder mouth. Only shred 1 credit card at a time.
For CD shredding, extend the sides of the CD guide, switch
the shredder to auto mode and place the CD into the centre
of the CD slot. Only shred 1 CD at a time.
Empty the CD tray after 8 credit cards or CD’s to avoid
waste spilling over into the paper waste bin. Remove the CD
tray before recommencing to shred paper.
Operation
After unpacking the product, pull out the shredder bin or
bag frame (depending on model) and remove the CD shard
tray, which sits on top of the bag frame on departmental
models or bin on small office models. Store this tray at the
door storage compartment (i) and use when you shred CD’s
or credit cards to separate waste for recycling (not applicable
for RSM1130, RDM1150, RDM1170, RDSM750 and
RDSM770 models).
Connect shredder to mains supply.
Ensure the on/off button on the back of the machine is in
the on position (d).
To commence shredding, press the central Auto button (e).
This will illuminate the anti jam indicator.
This sets the shredder into auto mode and initiates the
Mercury anti jam mechanism. The standby symbol will
illuminate blue and the anti-jam indicator will glow green.
You are now able to shred.
Insert paper to be shredded into the feed area. The Mercury
anti jam mechanism will sense the thickness of the paper
being shredded.
If the paper thickness is within the shredder’s capacity,
the motor will start and your documents will be shredded.
Cutters will stop once the shredding process is complete.
If the paper thickness is greater than the shredder’s sheet
capacity, the anti-jam indicator will turn from green to red
and the motor will not run.
If this happens, remove some of the sheets from the paper
stack and re-try until the anti-jam indicator reverts back to
green, the shredder will then automatically start and allow
the paper to be shredded.
If the shredder is left in auto mode for more than 2 minutes
without being used, the shredder will automatically turn
back to standby mode in order to save power.
The shredder will automatically ‘wake up’ from sleep mode
when paper is inserted into the shredder mouth. There is no
need to press the Auto button (e).
Bin Full
When the bin is full the shredder will not function and the bin
full symbol will illuminate red.
When this happens you must empty the bin.
tPull open the bin to empty (RSS2030, RSX1630, RSM1130,
RSS2232, RSX1632)
tOpen the door and pull out the bag frame (RD2250,
RDX1850, RDM1150, RDM1170, RDSM750, RDSM770,
RDS2270, RDX2070)
Once the bin is empty, close the door/drawer and press the
auto button to resume shredding.
Note: RSX1630, RSX1632, RDX1850, RDX2070, RDM1150,
RDM1170, RDSM750, RDSM770 - Once the waste bag has
been reinserted and/or cabinet door has been closed, the
shredder will run in reverse for three seconds, stop for two
seconds and then forward for three seconds to clear away any
remaining paper from the cutter mechanism. This unique
‘selfcleaning’ mechanism is additional jam prevention
technology from ACCO.
Note: RDX1850, RDX2070, RDM1150, RDM1170, RDSM750,
RDSM770 - if the bin full indicator is flashing, check the bin
full detection flap located directly underneath the cutting head
is present. It may have been dislodged by incorrectly fitted bin
bags. If this flap is missing - please contact our service
department to obtain a replacement.
