These models feature the latest in electronic controls for fully automatic operation. To shred, push
rocker switch to forward position, you will see a green "on" light. Simply place the documents into the
feed throat and the motor will automatically switch on. The shredder will continue to run as long as
paper is being fed into it. If shredding is interrupted for 4-5 seconds, the machine will automatically
turn itself off. To restart, simply insert more paper into the feed opening.
Important: Materials other than common office paper mayjam and/or damage the cutting unit. Paper
clips should be removed from material being destroyed to prolong life and trouble-free operation of the
cutting unit.
Note: The model 391C/2 is a high security paper shredder if anything other than common office paper
is inserted into the cutting head it will cause severe damage and void the warranty!
OVERLOADING
If too much paper is fed into machine, it will switch off automatically.Following a brief pause,the
machine will reverse automatically and the excess paper can be easily removed. Thin out the quantity
of paper before resuming shredding. If the cutting mechanism is frozen, do not attempt to run the
shredder alternately in the forward and reverse modes until the clogged material is released.

LUBRICATION
Important:Topreventjammingand/orcloggingthe shredder,it is necessaryto frequentlylubricatethe
cuttingunitandrunit in reverse.Forcontinuousshredding,the unitshouldbelubricatedevery15
minutes.
Alternatelyrun the machine forward and then in reverse several times to clean the cutting unit. Squirt
the SEM shred oil directly onto a piece of paper in a figure 8 motion, then feed into machine. Then run
it in reverse. This avoids getting oil into the optics. Too much oil is better than not enough. You are
again ready to start shredding.
MAINTENANCE
Twoto three preventative maintenance calls per year are recommended. Only authorized service per-
sonnel should be allowed to service the shredder.
Important:Alwaysunplugthe shredder before performing any maintenance. If shredding capacity
drops or the machine jams easily,clean and lubricate the cutting system as outlined in the
"lubrication" section of this manual.
