[. . . ] Do not expose to water or wet conditions. Do not let children operate this, or any other, office equipment. Do not reach into the cutting mechanism during operation ­ not even from the top or with objects. Do not operate the shredder for a period of more than 5 minutes in noload operation (operation without paper). [. . . ] Continue feeding paper into the Feed Opening until the shredding mechanism begins to draw the paper in. At this point, allow the paper to feed into the shredder on its own. Once the paper has passed completely through the shredding mechanism, the electronic controls will automatically stop the machine. Microfiche and transparencies can also be shredded in the same manner as paper. However, you should shred a piece of paper after every 8 or 10 sheets of plastic. This helps clean plastic particles out of the shredding mechanism.

These figures are approximate and machines may vary slightly due to various conditions. It is not recommended that you try to run your shredder at maximum capacity, as this increases the chance of a paper jam.
