This device is designed solely for private use in enclosed quarters and for
brief operation not exceeding 2 minutes. Do not use the document shredder for
commercial applications nor outdoors. Improper use poses risk of accidents.
The main switch has 3 positions. To start the device set the button into position “AUTO”.
- AUTO (automatic start): The shredding operation will start automatically once thedocument to be shredded is inserted in the feed slot. The document shredder is set to normal operation. Please only insert the paper EVENLY into the feed slot otherwise a paper jam may result. After the paper has been fed into the shredding slot, the document shredder will deactivate automatically. Only insert paper into the designated feed slots!
- REV (reverse operation): “ REV” make the cutting unit turn backward. With these function paper jams can be removed (please refer to chapter “Protection against paper jams and overloading”).

Capacity of the document shredder:
S117-A shreds up to six (6) sheets of A4 size 75g/sqm paper. The paper width may comprise up to 21.8 cm. When shredding small paper sizes such as letters or credit card receipts, please insert them into the middle of the shredding slot. Please ensure that never more than the above-mentioned maximum quantity is inserted in the shredder. Otherwise the device may sustain damage.
Protection against paper jams and overloading:
S117-A is equipped with a motor overload guard. To protect the machine well, we suggest the user to operate it in this way: work 2 minutes then rest 60 minutes. Under the following conditions, the current feed to the unit’s motor is interrupted:
- Continual operation of the document shredder with maximum capacity for a prolonged period of time, e.g. longer than 2 minutes without interruption.
- Overrunning the shredding capacity e.g. adding more than 6 sheets of paper (75g) in one operation or in the event the paper is not inserted length-wise into the feed slot.
Under the above-mentioned conditions, the automatic overload guard of the motor is triggered, whereupon the current feed to the device is interrupted. In such a case, please take the following steps:
- Disconnect the main plug from the AC socket in order to avoid the risk of serious injuries and wait at least 60 minutes until the overload guard has reset. Now tear off excess paper from the top of the shredder or remove it.
- Reconnect the main plug to the AC socket and switch to REV. Pull the remaining paper away from the shredding blades. If necessary, repeat this step.
