GEHA Home & Office S5 Anleitung Seite 8

5. Never insert metal objects, jewellery, hair, fingers, cloths, etc. into the paper feeder of the
shredder.
6. Before shredding a document, remove paper clips and staples.
7. Regularly empty the paper bin to prevent paper jams.
8. Do not switch on the device if its plug or power cord is damaged or if the shredder does not
work properly or is otherwise damaged.
9. In the event of an emergency, disconnect the shredder from the power supply by pulling the
plug.
10. Where possible, install the device near a power socket and ensure that the socket remains
freely accessible.
11. Do not clean the shredder with cloth or detergents containing aerosols or solvents.
12. Do not spray the device with liquids. Do not treat with oil spray.
INSTALLING SHREDDER
1. Operate the device only if it stands on a level floor.
2. Check the cutting unit to ensure that it is properly placed on the bin.
3. Insert the plug of the power cord into a standard power socket.
STARTING SHREDDER
The S5 is operated by means of a sliding switch located at the top of the shredder. This switch can
be set to three positions: AUTO, OFF, REV. Set the sliding switch to AUTO to activate automatic
paper intake as soon as a document is placed in the feeder slot, triggering the release switch in
the feeder opening. If the sliding switch is set to OFF, the shredder does not automatically start
up when a document is placed in the feeder opening. We recommend setting the switch to this
position when the shredder is not in use. Set the sliding switch to REV, if you wish to operate the
shredder continuously in reverse mode. This is required to clear a paper jam in the feeder.
PREVENTING PAPER JAMS AND OVERLOADING
The S5 can shred up to 5 sheets (DIN A4, 70g/m²) at a time and can handle documents of up to
220mm in width. If you wish to shred smaller pieces of paper such as envelopes and sales re-
ceipts, insert them at the centre of the feeder slot to ensure that the switching sensor is trigge-
red.
The S5 is equipped with a motor overload circuit breaker. A normal operating cycle for shredding
at maximum load takes 2 minutes, which must be followed by a break in operation. The power
supply to the shredder motor is automatically interrupted in the following cases:
1. Continuous operation of the document shredder at maximum capacity overa prolonged period
of time, i.e. for more than 2 minutes without interruption.
2. Simultaneous insertion of more than 5 sheets of paper (DIN A4, 70g/m²) or feeding of paper in
a direction other than longitudinal.
Under the above conditions, the automatic overload circuit breaker of the motor might be trigge-
red, interrupting the power supply to the device. If this occurs, proceed as follows:
