autofeed technology

The Stack and Shred 300X and 300M has been designed to automatically shred up to 300 sheets from the auto-feed chamber and up to 8 sheets through the manual feed slot. The auto-feed mechanism has been designed to handle paper fastened with staples and paper clips and to only pull a few sheets of paper into the cutting mechanism to minimise the risk of paper jams.

To guard against injury, the following basic safety precautions must be observed in the set-up of this product.

• Ensure the machine is plugged into an easily accessible power outlet, and ensure the cable is not

likely to trip up a passer by.

• Any attempt to repair this unit by unqualied personnel will invalidate the warranty. Please return to

supplier.

• Unplug your shredder before moving it or when it is not in use for an extended period of time.

• Do NOT operate with a damaged power supply cord or plug, after it malfunctions, or after it has

been damaged in any manner.

• Do NOT overload electrical outlets beyond capacity as this can result in re or electrical shock.

• The socket-outlet should be installed near the equipment and shall be easily accessible.

• Do NOT alter the attachment plug. The plug is congured for the appropriate electrical supply.

• Do NOT use near water.

• Do NOT use aerosol dusters or cleaners.

• Do NOT spray anything into the shredder.

• Do NOT load the auto-feed chamber with unopened junk mail, magazines, bound documents etc. Although this shredder has been designed to comply with UL 60950-1 EN 60950-1 safety standards

including the “probe accessibility tests”, do not operate the shredder near children or pets.
