CARING FOR YOUR SHREDDER  
Clean covers with a clean dry cloth. Do not use water or solvents. Make sure  
you disconnect your shredder from its power source before cleaning.  
Paper shredders, like all mechanical equipment, need proper maintenance to  
ensure efficient operation. Periodic lubrication of the cutting blades is  
important to offset the friction generated within the cutting head. Frequency of  
lubrication will vary depending on the shred size and the amount of usage. A  
strip-cut shredder receiving light use (1 – 2 hours per week) will require  
lubrication only once or twice a month, while the same machine used 1 – 2  
hours per day will require lubrication weekly. A cross-cut shredder should be  
lubricated every ½ hour of shredding time to maintain maximum capacity and  
efficiency.  
The procedure for lubricating your shredder is simple, and can be performed  
by any operator. The oil is packaged in a squeeze bottle and is applied  
directly to the cutting blades through the feed opening (3). Run a fine stream  
of lubricant from one side of the feed opening to the other. Run the shredder  
in REVERSE for a few seconds to help distribute the lubricant evenly. You  
can now continue shredding as usual.  
DAHLE Shredder Oil is the only lubricant you should use in your paper  
shredder. It has been specially formulated so as not to leave any residue that  
could attract dust and clog the shredding mechanism. You can order DAHLE  
Shredder Oil (item # 740) from your local dealer.  
Repairs on your paper shredder should only be performed by qualified  
technicians. If you need service, contact your local dealer, or you can  
contact DAHLE USA Customer Service between 8:30 am and 5:00 pm EST at  
(800) 995-1379.

SHREDDING  
Turn shredder on. Press Forward Button (4) to begin shredding operation.  
The shredder can be fed either from the top or the front. For this purpose, a  
feed opening is provided on the top for emptying waste paper baskets (paper  
only) and at the front for feeding cut stock and continuous forms.  
Three (3) EDP shelves can be folded up to facilitate the shredding of  
continuous forms.  
The shredder will not operate unless the Waste Door (9) and Access Door (13)  
are completely closed.  
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.  
CAPACITY  
Capacity is the number of sheets of 8½” x 11” paper that can be shredded at  
one time. 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.
