How to Maintain your Shredder Use Shredder Lubricant Regularly • Only use lubricants specifically designed for your shredder, such as shredder lubricant, shredder lubricant sheets or shredder lubrication pouches. • NEVER use spray lubricants. • Follow directions on the shredder lubricant, shredder lubricant sheets or shredder lubrication pouches. • Do not touch the cutting surface. • Continue to recycle waste paper in a normal manner. When Using Shredder Lubricant Sheets or Pouch Never tear or open a shredder lubricant sheet. Please, empty waste basket prior to use. Shred one shredder lubricant sheet by feeding sheet in the direction on the arrows, directly into the paper feed entrance as per the instructions that came with your shredder. After shredding the lubricant sheet run the shredder in reverse for 10 seconds for optimal performance. Align the first lubricant sheet to the left of the shredder throat. The next time you use a shredder lubricant sheet align the pouch to the right of the shredder throat. Continue to alternate between aligning the pouches to the left and right to ensure the entire cutting mechanism remains well lubricated. Re-lubricate your shredder by shredding a lubrication sheet after 30 minutes of shredding, or, a minimum of twice per month to maintain maximum performance. When Using Bottled Shredder Lubricant Apply shredder lubricant directly into the paper feed entrance (Figure 2) and shred paper or apply a stripe of lubricant across a sheet of paper (Figure 3), then shred the paper as per the instructions that came with your shredder. After applying lubricant and shredding paper, run the shredder in reverse for 10 seconds for optimal performance. Reapply lubricant after 30 minutes of shredding or a minimum of twice per month to maintain maximum performance. Store in a cool dry place. Recycle empty bottle whenever possible or dispose of it in normal trash. Figure 1 Illustration is for reference only. Figure 2 6 Figure 3
