Safety Devices and Other Features
Formax 8000 Series Shredders are equipped with various safety features:
Automatic Reverse Rotation
When too much paper is inserted, the cutter stops operating and
automatically rotates in reverse to discharge the jammed paper. An alarm
sounds. Reduce the amount of paper and restart the operation.
Door Switch
If the door is open, the shredder will not operate.
Automatic Stop
When the shredded paper fills the wastebasket, the “FULL” light
comes on and the cutter stops operation. Open the door, remove the
wastebasket and empty paper scraps. Replace the wastebasket, close
the door and continue operation.
Automatic Power Shut-Off
• If the shredder operates continuously for more than 30
minutes, the power is automatically shut off.
• If the motor is overloaded, the “STOP” LED will flash until it cools
down. When the flashing stops the shredder is ready to be used again.
Maintenance
• Disconnect power by pulling power cord plug from wall outlet.
• To clean the exterior, wipe the surface with a soft cloth. If the surface is very dirty, use
a neutral detergent, then wipe again with a soft cloth.
CAUTION:
• Never put water directly on the surface of the shredder.
• Never clean the case with benzene or thinner, since it will cause discoloration.
• Do not dismantle the shredder. Contact your Formax Dealer for service.
Oil Indicator
The “MANUAL” LED will flash after every four (4) hours of operation as an indicator to
oil the shredder cutting blades. The LED will continue to flash until oiled. NOTE: the
shedder will still operate when the LED is flashing but at a decreased load capacity.
To oil: Spread shredder oil onto the cutters through the feed opening, and allow the
oil to sit for a few minutes to permeate the cutting blades, then press the “REV” button
and hold for five seconds. “MANUAL” and “REV” LED indicators on control panel will
light. The shredder will operate in reverse for one minute, then the “AUTO” LED will light
indicating the shredder is ready.
