Frequently Asked Questions - StackandShred 230X Swingline

How to use the auto-feed compartment?

Open the compartment cover, insert up to 230 sheets (do not exceed maximum), close the cover and the shredder starts automatically. If sheets remain, open and close the cover.

What to do in case of paper jam?

The shredder first attempts automatic jam release. If the jam indicator stays red, use the forward and reverse buttons to clear the paper. If that fails, open the compartment and manually remove the sheets.

How to lock the compartment cover with a PIN code?

Place the documents, close the cover, then enter a 4-digit code using the dedicated buttons. Note this code. The lock unlocks automatically after shredding, after 30 minutes of inactivity, or by entering the code again.

Can I shred CDs or DVDs?

Yes, only via the CD/DVD feed slot located under the cover. Insert one CD/DVD at a time, close the cover. The separate waste bin must be in place. Empty it after 8 CDs/DVDs.

Can I shred bank cards?

Yes, insert the bank card into the rollers as indicated, one at a time, then close the cover. Do not mix the residue with shredded paper for recycling.

What types of materials not to shred?

Do not shred plastics, laminated documents, adhesive labels, bound magazines, clips, large staples (more than 6 mm), or large paper clips (more than 32 mm). Also avoid aerosol cans and liquid lubricants.

How to clean and maintain the shredder?

Clean the auto-feed rollers with a dry cloth. If the infrared sensor is dirty, clean it with a cotton swab. Use only Swingline lubricating sheets for lubrication. Do not spray any product.

What does the cooling indicator mean?

The red indicator with a thermometer lights up when the shredder has overheated (after about 10 minutes of continuous use). Let the device cool down; it will restart automatically. You don't need to do anything.

What is the bin capacity and how to empty it?

The bin does not have a specified capacity, but an indicator lights up when it is full. To empty, open the door, remove the bag support frame, take out the bag and replace it. The shredder then performs an auto-clean cycle.

How to lubricate the shredder?

Use only Swingline lubricating sheets. Insert one sheet into the manual feed slot, not into the automatic compartment. Never use liquid or aerosol lubricant.

SHREDDERS

English instruction manual 6

The Stack and Shred 230X/230XL has been designed to automatically shred up to 230 sheets from the auto-feed chamber and up to 7 sheets through the manual feed slot. The auto-feed mechanism has been designed to handle paper fastened with staples and paper clips and to only pull a few sheets of paper into the cutting mechanism to minimise the risk of paper jams.

To guard against injury, the following basic safety precautions must be observed in the set-up of this product.

• Ensure the machine is plugged into an easily accessible power outlet, and ensure the cable is not likely to trip up a passer by.
• Any attempt to repair this unit by unqualified personnel will invalidate the warranty. Please return to supplier.
• Unplug your shredder before moving it or when it is not in use for an extended period of time.
• Do not operate with a damaged power supply cord or plug, after it malfunctions, or after it has been damaged in any manner.
• Do not overload electrical outlets beyond capacity as this can result in fire or electrical shock.
• The socket-outlet should be installed near the equipment and shall be easily accessible.
• Do not alter the attachment plug. The plug is configured for the appropriate electrical supply.
• Do not use near water.
• Do not use aerosol dusters or cleaners.
• Do NOT spray anything into the shredder.
• Do NOT load the autofeed chamber with junk mail, magazines, bound documents etc.

Although this shredder has been designed to comply with UL 60950-1 EN 60950-1 safety standards including the “probe accessibility tests”, do not operate the shredder near children or pets.

over heating

If the Stack and Shred 230X & 230XL is used continuously for over 10 minutes the shredder may overheat and the cool down indicator will flash red ( ). Please allow the shredder to cool down. When the shredder is ready to be used the thermometer symbol will no longer illuminate. If the shredder needs to cool down while shredding, no action is needed. The shredder will automatically restart shredding paper once it has cooled down after periods of continuous use. All you need to do is ensure paper is loaded into the chamber and the bin is empty when the machine is cooling down.

6. self-cleaning cutters

After emptying and replacing a full bin, the shredder will run in forward for 4 seconds, stop for 2 seconds and then reverse for 4 seconds to clear away any remaining paper from the cutter mechanism. This unique ‘self-cleaning’ mechanism is additional jam prevention technology from Swingline.

lubrication of the shredder

Only use oil sheets to lubricate. ACCO Brands accepts no liability for product performance or safety when other types of lubricants are used on any part(s) of this machine. Insert the oil sheet into the manual feed slot and NOT in the auto-feed chamber. Using an oil sheet in the auto-feed chamber will contaminate the feed rollers preventing the auto-feed mechanism shredding. Follow the maintenance instructions if the rollers become contaminated. Do not directly oil the shredder.

7. maintenance

The rollers on the auto-feed mechanism may become dirty over time, please wipe clean with a dry cloth to maintain maximum product performance.

The auto-start infra-red sensor, located in the paper feed entry-slot, can occasionally become covered in paper-dust causing the shredder to run despite no paper being fed into the machine. Switch the shredder off at the rear of the machine and carefully clean the sensor using a cotton-swab.

service

We recommend these machines are serviced every 6 to 12 months by a Swingline service engineer – see back of this booklet for the contact details of your local service centre and for enquiries about maintenance contracts.

shredder accessories

We recommend that a paper waste sack for recycling shredded paper is used on all models.
