Makulering af papir
- Set the control switch to the "ON" (Auto) position. The shredder is now in standby mode.
- Insert up to 7-8 sheets of paper (70gsm) straight into the paper entry slot. The shredder will automatically start and stop once the paper has passed through.
- For thicker paper or fewer sheets, the shredder will adjust automatically.
Shredding Credit Cards
- Set the control switch to the "ON" (Auto) position.
- Insert one credit card at a time into the center of the paper entry slot. The shredder will automatically shred the card.
Afhjælpning af et papirstop

- If the jam persists, switch to "OFF", unplug the unit, and carefully remove the jammed paper manually.
- Once cleared, plug the unit back in and resume shredding.

Rengøring af makuleringsmaskinen
- Always unplug the shredder before cleaning.
- Wipe the exterior of the shredder with a soft, damp klæde. Brug ikke slibende rengøringsmidler eller opløsningsmidler.
- Regularly oil the shredder blades (e.g., every 30 minutes of cumulative shredding or once a month) using shredder oil sheets or liquid shredder oil applied to a sheet of paper. This helps maintain performance and prolong the life of the blades.
