IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS  
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING  
While setting up shredder  
Check shredder for damage or defects; some paper particles in the basket are nor-  
mal due to product testing and does not indicate a defect.  
If the cord is damaged do not replace cord or use the machine. Return machine for  
a replacement.  
Avoid touching exposed blades on underside of OD1200C confetti-cut shredder  
head.  
Plug power cord in an outlet that can easily be reached.  
Do not place shredder near or over a heat or water source.  
While operating shredder  
Keep hands and hanging objects (jewelry, ties, loose clothing,  
long hair, etc.) away from paper entry.  
Keep children and pets away from the shredder.  
When not in use  
Always turn off and unplug shredder  
Unplug before emptying basket

ucts  
or aerosols of any kind on or near product at any time.

Set-Up  
This shredder will only operate when used with the supplied basket. The supplied bas-  
ket has a built-in safety feature which prevents the shredder from operating if used  
with any other basket or if improperly assembled.  
Position shredder head (1) over cabinet (2). Place shredder head on top of cabinet as  
shown in Figure A.  
Firmly push down on four corners of shredder head to “lock” shredder head into posi-  
tion.  
Push basket (3) into shredder cabinet as shown in Figure B. Basket must be pushed  
firmly, so edges of basket/cabinet are aligned properly.  
NOT E: To disassemble, pull out basket, hold cabinet down by placing foot on bottom  
shelf, and firmly pull up on shredder head.  
Operation  
For convenience, your shredder is equipped with an automatic-start sensor (4). This  
means that when the control switch (5) is in the automatic [I] position, the shredder will  
start running when paper is fed into it. The shredder stops a few seconds after the  
paper has passed through. Because the sensor cannot tell the difference between  
paper and other objects, this feature can 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 (5) in off [O] position  
Press control switch to automatic [I] position; cutting cylinders will run for 1-2 seconds  
to signal readiness and green light (6) will turn on.  
Feed paper straight into entry (7), until the shredder automatically begins shredding;  
see ProductProfile for limits on paper width, shreddable items, sheet capacity, etc.  
Shred for no more than 10-12 minutes; shredding longer will cause shredder to turn  
itself off for 20 minutes to cool down.  
Press control switch to off [O] position after cutting has stopped. With confetti-cut  
shredder, cutting continues for several 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 sheet capacity is exceeded or if paper  
is not put in straight, turn off and empty the basket if full. Then:  
1) Press and hold control switch in reverse [R] position and attempt to back paper out  
of shredder.  
2) If shredder jams in reverse mode, press 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 auto-  
matic [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 shred-  
der; remove wastebasket from the cabinet and carefully remove any paper extending  
below the cutting cylinders; insert wastebasket and repeat jam clearing procedure.

Maintenance  
Regular emptying of the basket is important to ensure the smooth operation of the  
cutting cylinders. If you can see paper in the basket window (7), turn off the shredder,  
pull out basket and empty basket contents.  
Regular oiling of the confetti-cut model (OD1200C) is also necessary to  
ensure proper performance. If you are running the shredder at or near  
capacity, we recommend oiling it monthly. Using Fellowes Powershred  
Lubricant #35250 or other non-aerosol vegetable-based oil in a long-nozzle  
container:  
• Apply oil over full width of paper entry (7) with shredder in off [O] position.  
• Press control switch to automatic [I] position which will cause shredder to run for  
about 2 seconds.  
• Press and hold control switch in reverse [R] position for 3–5 seconds.  
• Repeat above automatic [I] and reverse [R] sequence three times.  
REMINDER: Do not use flammable synthetic oil, petroleum-based products  
or aerosol lubricants of any kind in or near the shredder at any time.

you cannot solve the problem this way, contact Fellowes Customer Service. Do not
