A few pieces of shredded paper may be found inside the shredder and the wastebasket. This is normal. All HP shredders are tested at the factory to ensure quality.
Setup
- The AF2013 shredder should be placed on a flat level surface.
- Make sure that the wastebasket is completely inserted into the shredder cabinet and that it fits flush with the shredder cabinet.

means that the shredder is now ready for operation.
It is recommended that when the auto sheet feed is not in use, the Auto feed
tray should remain in the closed position.
Manual feed shredding: A maximum of 13 sheets at one pass or a single credit card is recommended. Exceeding the maximum 13 sheet or multiple credit card insertions could result in unnecessary paper jams. When the paper is inserted into the feed opening, the shredding process will start automatically and stop when the paper has completed its travel through the feed opening.
Auto sheet feed shredding: Grasp the front edge of the Auto feed tray and
open fully as in Diagram O. Staples and paper clips should be removed prior to
insertion. Place up to 200 sheets of neatly stacked paper into the paper tray
as in Diagram G. The feeding of the paper should begin immediately. The duty
cycle for auto feed is 60 min on/ 40 min off.
