ProAction 8 Sheet 15 Litre Micro Cut Shredder

 If your shredder has no power:

• Make sure it is securely plugged in. 
• Try a different wall socket. 
• Check the plug fuse and replace with the same rated fuse.  
• Ensure the power switch is turned on. 
• Check that the waste bin is correctly inserted. 

Power cycle the shredder:

1. Switch it off. 
2. Unplug from the mains.
3. Leave it unplugged 30 seconds. 
4. Plug back in and switch on again.

This is commonly caused by overheating or a jam. 

• Switch the shredder off and unplug it. 
• Allow it to cool down for 20–60 minutes. 
• Check for any paper stuck in the blades. 
• Empty the waste bin if full.

Once cooled and cleared, plug it back in and try again with fewer sheets.

To safely remove jammed paper: 

• Switch off and unplug the shredder. 
• Empty the waste bin. 
• Plug back in briefly and use the reverse function to release the paper. 
• If needed, unplug again and gently remove loose paper by hand.

To prevent jams, do not exceed the maximum sheet capacity.

If the power light is on but it won’t shred:

• Make sure it is set to Auto/On, not Reverse. 
• Check that the waste bin is fitted correctly. 
• Ensure the bin isn’t full. 
• Check for jammed paper blocking the sensor.

Try a full power cycle:

1. Switch it off. 
2. Unplug from the mains. 
3. Leave it unplugged 30 seconds. 
4. Plug back in and switch on again.
