automatically
terminate power during any of the following abnormal situations:
1. Operating the shredder at the maximum 12-sheet capacity continuously for
a prolonged period of time, eg. more than 6 minutes without stopping.
2. Exceeding the shredding capacity, eg. Inserting more than twelve (12) sheets
of 20-lbs. 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 thermal
motor overload protection circuit, which terminates the power to the shredder. A
paper jam could cause the thermal motor overload protection to terminate AC
power to the motor. Never allow the shredder to remain in a jammed condition with
the AC power turned on. If this occurs you should:

of the feed opening. Remove the unshredded portion of paper from the top

fingers and any personal effects away from the throat of the feed
