Overload protection
The motor is equipped with an overload protection. When
overloaded, the machine acts as follows:
– The blade runs reverse for two or three seconds
to try to push the shredded material back out.
– The blade runs forward again.
– If the material is still clogged after this attempt
for three times, the machine stops with LED light
flickering in red.
When it happens perform the following steps:
– Turn off the machine.
– Wait until the blades stop completely.
– Remove the clogged material.
– Turn the shredder on again after about  minutes,
and feed easier material.
– If you cannot turn on the machine after this wait-
ing time, refer to "Trouble shooting".
Forward / Reverse switch
CAUTION:
Switch off the shredder before changing the forward /
reverse switch.
Position e
The blades rotate in forward direction.
Position d

When you change the direction into d (reverse), keep
pushing the green button of the power switch to rotate
the blades. The shredder automatically stops when you
release the power switch.
NOTE:
• Several repetitions of reverse and forward operations
may be required to shred a large object.
CAUTION:
• Always use a hook or a stick to remove jammed objects
to prevent accidents.
• Always wait until the shredder stops completely before
restart.
