infeed! The device must not be operated
| by children! Keep children away from the device.
| Never insert your hands in the paper infeed!
| Keep ties away from the area of the paper infeed!
| Keep your hair away from the area of the paper infeed!
| Never spray any flammable gases or oil on the device. Risk of fire!
| Never insert paper clips or staples in the paper infeed!

Attention: Failure to observe the safety labels can result in severe personal injury! If an object (sleeve, tie, etc.) does enter the infeed accidentally, disconnect the power plug from the power socket immediately!
Safety information: The power socket must be in the immediate vicinity of the unit and easily accessible. This enables you to disconnect the device from the power supply quickly in an emergency.
1.2 Electrical safety guidelines

• Disconnect the power plug from the power socket:
•  if it will remain unused for a longer period,
•  before emptying the waste bin,
•  before cleaning the device,
•  before moving the device.
• Do not put the device into operation in the case of damage to the power cable, the power plug or the device itself (risk of injury)!
• Do not complete any modifications to the power cable because it is designed for the power supply specified.
• Never exceed the recommended load capacity of the power socket or any connected extension cables!

Attention:
It is forbidden to open the cutting mechanism attachment for repair purposes. Risk of fatal injury! In addition, all claims under the terms of guarantee will be deemed null and void.

Intended Use

• Only use the PS 36 paper shredder to shred paper! The paper to be shredded must be dry and comply with the requirements stipulated in Chapter “Technical Data”! Attempting to shred other material can lead to personal injury (e.g. through splinters from hard material, etc.) and damage to the equipment (e.g. damage to the cutting mechanism etc.).
• Remove all paper clips and staples from paper before feeding it in the device!
• Do not shred continuous forms in this device!
•  The unit may only be used in dry, indoor rooms.

Operating Elements

1. Shredder attachment
2. Sliding switch
3. Paper infeed with cutting mechanism
4. Extension (to fit the shredder on larger waste bins)
5. Waste bin

Starting Up

1. Remove the device carefully from the packaging.
   Attention: The underside of the cutting mechanism attachment has sharp edges. Risk of injury!

2. Replace the shredder attachment on the waste bin supplied.
   Note: The shredder attachment must not wobble!

3. Set the waste bin and shredder attachment on an even surface.

4. Position the device near a power socket. However, do not position the waste bin and shredder attachment near a source of heat or in the vicinity of water.

5. Connect the power plug to a power socket.

Note:
Pay attention that the power cable is laid so that people or pets do not walk over it or that other objects can be set down on it. Pay attention to the in- formation regarding power supply on the rear side of the device for the necessary precautions.
Safety information: For reasons of safety, the power socket to which the shredder power plug is connected must be near to the device and freely accessible so that the power supply can be disconnected quickly in an emergency!

Operation

Note:
The recommended capacities stipulated in Chapter “Technical Data” must not be exceeded, otherwise paper will jam! Do not forget that the thickness of the paper increases when folded, as a result of which the recommended sheet capacity can be exceeded. Also reduce the quantity of paper when shredding coarse paper.
5.1 Sliding switch
The sliding switch is used to control the cutting mechanism in the paper shredder. The sliding switch can be set to three positions:

• Position Rev: Continuous reverse running.
• Position Off: Paper shredder is switched off.
• Position Auto: When set to Auto, the shredding operation of the cutting mechanism is started automatically as soon as paper is fed into the paper infeed. The device switches to forward drive and draws the paper in. On completion of the shredding operation, the device continues running for approx. 2 to 4 seconds and then switches off automatically.

5.2 Switching the device on

1. Connect the power plug to a power socket.
2. Set the sliding switch to Auto.

5.3 Inserting paper
Note: A maximum of 6 sheets of A4 paper with a weight of maximally 80 g/m² may be inserted in the paper infeed at a time.

1. The shredder is connected to the mains power outlet and the sliding switch is set to Auto.
2. The paper must be straight when inserted in the paper infeed.

Note:
Ensure that the sliding switch is set to Off after the shredding o elation has been completed.
5.4 Switching the device off

• Disconnect the power plug from the power socket.

Motor Protection

The motor switches off automatically in the event of an overload. First of all, disconnect the power plug from the power socket and allow the motor to cool down to room temperature. Then connect the power plug to the power socket again and continue operation.
Note:
Observe the continuous operation time stipulated in Chapter “Technical Data”.

 Clearing Paper Jams

If too much paper is fed into the cutting mechanism, a paper jam occurs. The shredder switches off automatically in the event of a paper jam.
Proceed as follows:

1. Press the Rev button to activate reverse operation and feed the paper back out.

2. Remove any residual paper from the infeed in forward feed (Auto).
   Note:
   If the jam is not cleared by the reverse/forward running process, disconnect the power plug and remove the residual paper from the cutting mechanism manually.

3. Set the sliding switch to Auto.

4. Reduce the quantity of paper being shred and continue with the shredding process.

7.1 Rev setting (reverse operation)
Set the sliding switch to Rev so that the cutting mechanism runs in reverse and releases he paper.
7.2 Auto setting (forward feed)
Set the sliding switch to Auto in order to ensure any residual paper is shredded and removed from the cutting mechanism.

 Maintenance and Service

Attention: Maintenance work may only be completed when the power plug has been disconnected from the power socket!
8.1 Emptying the waste bin

1. Disconnect the power plug from the power socket.
2.  Remove the shredder attachment from the waste bin.
3. Empty the contents of the waste bin according to waste disposal requirements.
4. Replace the shredder attachment back on the waste bin.

Note:
It is recommended not to allow the waste bin to fill up against the cutting mechanism. This prevents the shredded paper congesting and jamming in the cutting mechanism. Empty the waste bin regularly.
8.2 Lubricating the cutting mechanism
To ensure a long service life for your paper shredder, we recommend clearing any residue from the cutting mechanism regularly and applying a little special oil for paper shredders on the cutting tool. You can obtain the special CFC-free oil from your supplier or directly from our service centre in Hattingen. This helps lengthen the service life of the device.

• Each time the waste bin is emptied, apply several lines of the special oil in a lateral direction on a suitable sheet of paper and feed this sheet through the shredder by setting the sliding switch to Auto.
• As an alternative, we offer lubricant sheets. The oil, which is on a vegetable basis, is impregnated in the paper and is only released during the shredding process. This ensures simple, clean use. Simply insert the lubricant sheet in the paper shredder infeed, shred it and then switch the device to reverse running for approx. 10 seconds. The shredder is then ready for operation again. There are 12 lubricant sheets nclosed in one envelope and they can be obtained under Article Number 9130 from retailers or our Service department.

Attention:
It is forbidden to use oil spray from aerosol cans containing CFC!
8.3 Cleaning the device

• Clean the outside of the device with a slightly damp cloth.

Note:
Never use any aggressive cleaning agents. Never use any chemicals (e.g. cleaning solvent, alcohol) to clean the housing
