Maintenance and Service
Attention:
Maintenance work may only be completed when the power plug has been
disconnected from the power socket!
9.1
Emptying the waste bin
1. Set the On/Off switch to its OFF position.
2. Pull the waste bin out of the device.
3. Empty the contents according to waste disposal requirements.
4. Slide the waste bin back in the device.
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.
9.2
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 when
the AUTO function is set.
Attention:
It is forbidden to use oil spray from aerosol cans containing CFC!
9.3
Cleaning the device
1. Set the On/Off switch to its OFF position and disconnect the power plug from the
power socket.
2. 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.
