Lift shredder(motor) using handle and you should hear a click; if you do not hear the click, rotate 180degress and set shredder(motor) onto bin it is made to rest on. Now, lift again, listening for a single-click noise/sound. The click alerts me I have sat it correctly. Within trash bin, notice a plastic-protrusion. Evidently, motor must be seated accordingly to allow that protrusion to activate shredder when paper is inserted.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The top of the shedder must go back on in the same direction it was originally. If you reverse it the safety switch won’t engage and it won’t turn on.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Probably don’t have the head lined up properly.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Make sure that the grinder is clean of all leftover paper or other that will stop it from shredding in the future.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Either overheated and have to wait or teeth are jammed. I've had to unplug and clean out the blades manually. I also found putting in folder weight harder paper at the sides keeps those blades from accumulating to much shredded paper that won't release into the can and therefore builds up and stops working.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.This will happen if the shredder has overheated. You should be able to use it again after a few minutes.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I cannot answer that question, but I have placed full envelopes with letters in it and my shredder has performed well.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.There's a small safety switch on the cap. Might not be depressed fully. Try reseating the top. Might be too hot too. It has a thermal protection switch too.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes over heat will shut down till cool off
