PRODUCT MAINTENANCE
CLEANING AUTO-START INFRARED SENSORS
Paper detection sensors are designed for maintenance-free operation. However,
on rare occasions, the sensors may become blocked by paper dust causing the
motor to run
even if there is no paper present. ( Note: two paper detection sensors are
located in the center of the paper entry.)
TO CLEAN THE SENSORS
AUTO OIL
Automatically oils the cutters to enhance performance and extend shredder life. (Auto oil system is only included on cross-cut models – 425C and 485Ci)
REFILLING THE OIL
- All cross-cut shredders require oil for peak performance. If not oiled, a machine may experience diminished sheet capacity, intrusive noise when shredding, and could ultimately stop running. We recommend that you refill the Auto Oil reservoir as instructed for optimum performance.
- If shipping shredder, the oil must be drained. Open the cabinet door and remove the basket to access the oil drain plug. Place a suitable container under the drain, remove the plug and let the oil drain out Replace the plug.
TROUBLESHOOTING
-
Low Oil Indicator: When illuminated, the shredder is out of oil and needs to be refilled. See the Product Maintenance section for refill instructions. For optimum performance, use Fellowes oil (35250). *Auto Oil is only featured on cross-cut models – 425C and 485Ci.
-
Bin Full Indicator: When illuminated, the shredder waste bin is full and needs to be emptied. Use Fellowes waste bag 3605801.
-
SafeSense® Indicator: If hands are too close to the paper entry, the SafeSense® indicator will illuminate and the shredder will stop shredding. If SafeSense®
is active for 3 seconds, the shredder will automatically turn off and the user must press the power button on the control panel to resume shredding. -
Remove Paper Indicator: When illuminated, press reverse (1) and remove the paper. Reduce paper quantity to an acceptable amount and refeed into paper entry.
