    Problems and Solutions
    Basic Paper Jam
    The shredder should automatically eject any minor excess material from t\
    he 
    feed opening. Manually remove any unshredded material from the top of th\
    e 
    feed opening.
    Minor Paper Jam
    Place the slide switch in the REV position and pull the remaining sheets of 
    paper out of the feed opening. Remove the unshredded portion of paper fr\
    om 
    the top and clear any excess paper shreds from the feed opening.
    Major Paper Jam
    Turn off or unplug the power cord from the AC outlet and wait at least 20 
    1. 
    minutes for the thermal overload protection to reset.
    Plug in the AC power cord and place the slide switch in the AUTO 
    2. 
    position. If paper was left inside the feed opening prior to the overloa\
    d, 
    place the slide switch in the REV position, grasp the excess paper from 
    the top, and pull it out. Be careful to not place your fingers near the feed 
    opening or serious harm could result. Clear any excess paper shreds from\
     
    the feed opening. Press the power button. You are now ready to resume 
    normal shredding.
    Paper Jams and Motor Overload Situations
    The shredder is equipped with an automatic motor overload protection 
    circuit. The duty cycle for the shredder is rated for continuous shredding. 
    Recommended running time at maximum capacity is 2 minutes on and 20 
    minutes off. The shredder will automatically terminate power if any of the 
    following abnormal situations occur:
    Operating the shredder at the maximum five-sheet capacity continuously 
    1. 
    for a prolonged period of time, e.g., more than 2 minutes without stoppi\
    ng.
    Exceeding the shedding capacity, e.g., inserting more than five sheets of 
    2. 
    20-lb paper in one pass, or if the paper is not fed squarely into the fe\
    ed 
    opening.
    Both abnormal operations may result in the activation of the automatic t\
    hermal 
    motor overload protection circuit, which terminates power to the shredde\
    r. 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.
