Electrical safety guidelines

• Do not overload the recommended capacity of the mains socket.
• Do not make any alterations to the mains cable as it has been designed for the specified mains voltage.

Intended use

The PS 17 CD shredder may only be used to shred paper or CDs in the infeed slots provided. The material to be shredded must be dry and must correspond to the specifications listed in the technical data. Shredding other materials can lead to injuries (for example, if solid material splinters) or damage to the device (destruction of the cutting unit, etc.). Do not shred endless paper documents with this device. Remove all paper clips and staples before feeding paper into the device. The device may only be used indoors in dry rooms.

Starting up

Take the device carefully out of the packaging. Insert the inner collecting basket (for CDs) in the paper collecting basket. Plug the mains cable into the socket. Please observe the energy supply specifications on the back of the device in your safety measures. The socket and the mains connection of the device must be freely accessible for safety reasons so that the power supply can be disconnected in emergencies.

Operation

The sliding switch (Paper Auto, Off, Paper Rev / CD) on the device has the following functions:

Paper Auto position: the device is ready for operation.

The device is equipped with microswitches. Shredding operating of the respective cutting unit starts automatically as soon as paper is fed through the infeed slot.

- The device runs forwards and draws the paper in

- The device switches off automatically after the shredding cycle.

Paper Rev / CD position: Insert the individual CD in the respective infeed slot in the cutting unit.

The cutting unit runs in reverse. To hold the rest of the paper back, you can push the sliding switch in the Paper Rev / CD position and the cutting unit pushes the paper back.

Off position: The device is switched off.

Clear key: If paper remains in the cutting mechanism, press the Clear key to start the motor to shred the residual paper.

Caution: the sheet capacity given in the technical data may not be exceeded as oth-erwise a paper jam will occur. Remember that the thickness of the paper increases when it is folded and the recommended sheet capacity may be exceeded in this way. Reduce the quantity of paper fed if it is coarse fibre paper. it is recommended not to fill the paper collection basket up to the cutting unit. This prevents cut material becoming jammed in the cutting unit. Empty the paper collection basket at regular intervals.

Clearing a jam

If too much paper is inserted in the cutting unit, it will cause a jam.

Proceed as follows:

- Push the sliding switch to the Paper Rev /CD position.

- The cutting unit runs backwards and pushes the excess paper back.

- Reduce the quantity and slide the switch to Paper Auto / CD again. The cutting unit runs forward again and the residue remaining is shredded.

If the backwards and forwards movement does not remedy the jam, pull out the mains plug and remove the remaining manually from the cutting unit.

Motor protection

The motor switches off automatically in the event of overloading. Pull out the mains plug from the socket and allow the motor to cool down to room temperature. Plug the mains cable back in and then continue operation.

Notes on care and maintenance

Caution: maintenance work may only be performed when the mains plug is pulled out.

To ensure your shredder enjoys a long working life, we recommend to clear residual material from the cutting units at regular intervals and apply special oil for paper shredders to the cutting unit. This special oil is available from specialist dealers or directly from our service centre in Hattingen. This will extend the service life of the device.
