Conceptsolutions PSC53 Operation Manual - Troubleshooting
troUBLeshootInG
SYMPTOM:
New shredder has trouble shredding maximum capacity
In order to calibrate the shredders cutting mechanism, shred 3 sheets of paper for the first few shredding cycles.
This will allow the internal lubrication to be equally redistributed to all the moving parts in the cutter assembly.
If the shredder does not initially accept or shred 5 sheets of paper completely without stopping, please continue
to shred 3 sheets for a few more shredding cycles.
SYMPTOM: The unit does not operate
1. Verify that the unit is plugged into the wall receptacle.
2. Verify that the unit is in the AUTO or REVERSE position.
3. Verify that the unit is properly placed on the basket. (For safety reasons, the shredder will not operate unless
the shredder is properly placed).
SYMPTOM: The unit stops shredding
This shredder cannot be used for constant shredding for a long period of time. To protect the shredder from
damage, the overload protector will stop the shredder. The normal duty cycle for continuous shredding at
maximum capacity is 2 minutes ON and 30 minutes OFF.
SYMPTOM: Paper Jams
The following measure should be taken to remove paper jams from the paper entrance of the shredder:
1. Slide the switch to the REVERSE position to clear the jam.
2. Return the shredder into AUTO or OFF position.
3. Repeat if necessary until the paper jam has been cleared.
