OVERLOADING
When the cutting system is “overloaded”, switch the shredder off, then into reverse to clear
the cutting system. To continue shredding, reduce the amount of material being destroyed
and restart the shredder.
CAUTION:
In the event of a severe overload or jam,
DO NOT
attempt to
clear the jam by alternately switching from forward to reverse constantly. This
action may result in motor or drive system damage, which cannot be repaired
within the scope of the guarantee. In addition, the resulting situation may require
a service technician to manually clear the overfeed.
THERMAL OVERLOAD CUT-OUT
The Model 135 Shredder is protected against excessive current draw with a built-in
thermo-element, which causes it to switch off automatically. If an overload should
happen, shut off the shredder and allow 10 to 20 minutes for the motor to cool off.
LUBRICATION
a) If shredding 10-15 minutes a day, oil cutters once a week.
b) If shredding 2-3 hours a day, oil cutters once a day.
c) For continuous shredding, oil every 15 minutes after reversing cutters
to clean out machine.
d) Do not oil a running machine.
e) After oiling, allow shredder to run for a short period of time to ensure even
distribution of the oil.
IMPORTANT:
To prevent jamming and/or clogging, it is necessary to periodically reverse
the cutters to clean them out, then lubricate the cutting unit.
