Set-Up
CONFETTI-CUT (T440C):
• Recommendation: Place plastic waste bag (Fellowes part number 36052) into basket
to collect confetti particles.
• For safety reasons, this model will operate only if the shredder head is in the correct
position on the basket. Align slot at the back of the shredder head (A) with tab on the
back of the basket (B) and place it onto the basket in this position.
Operation
For convenience, your shredder is equipped with an automatic-start sensor (C).
This means that when the control switch (D) is in the automatic (I) position, the
shredder will start running when you put paper into it and stop 1 or 2 seconds after
the paper has passed through. Because the sensor cannot tell the difference between
paper and other objects, this feature can also be a hazard, especially to children and
pets. To avoid accidents, turn off the shredder as soon as you are finished. Unplug
shredder if it will not be used for an extended period.
To shred:
• Plug in shredder with control switch (D) in off (O) position
• Slide control switch to automatic (I) position to signal readiness
P aper
• Feed paper straight into entry (E), until the shredder automatically begins shredding;
see Product Profile for limits on paper width, shreddable items, sheet capacity, etc.
• Shred for no more than 5-7 minutes; shredding longer will cause shredder to turn
itself off for 15 minutes to cool down.
• Slide control switch to off (O) position after cutting has stopped; cutting continues for 1
or 2 seconds after paper has gone through in order to clear shredded paper from
cutting cylinders.
In case of a paper jam, which may occur if the shredder is pushed beyond its specified
capabilities, press the control switch to the off (0) position and empty the basket if full. Then:
1) Slide control switch in reverse (R) position and attempt to back paper out of shredder.
2) If shredder jams in reverse mode, slide control switch to automatic (I) position and
attempt to continue shredding operation.
3) If shredder jams again, alternate control switch slowly between reverse (R) and
automatic (I) positions to attempt to move jammed paper completely through
shredder.
If you are unable to clear the jam using this method, turn off and unplug the
shredder; remove shredder head from the wastebasket and carefully remove any
paper extending below the cutting cylinders; empty the wastebasket; reassemble the
shredder and repeat jam clearing procedure.
