ST140MX CROSSCUT PAPER SHREDDER
Setup:
• With the basket removed from the cabinet, place the shredder head securely on top of the cabinet until it snaps
in place.
• To install the casters, carefully lay the shredder on is back. Place the long post of each caster inside the holes located
in each corner on the bottom of the shredder. Push each caster into place until you hear or feel it snap and lock in
place. Place the shredder in an upright postition. Make sure that the shredder stands
evenly and that all four casters fit squarely on the floor.
• Make sure that the wastebasket is completely inserted into the shredder
cabinet and that it fits flush with in the cabinet.
• Plug the power cord into any standard 115-volt AC outlet.
• To turn on the shredder, slide the top cover towards the rear of the shredder by placing both thumbs in the recessed circles located on the top of the shredder. Place the switch in the auto position.
Operating the shredder:
With the Slide Top in the open position, the wastebasket properly inserted into the shredder cabinet and the power cable plugged in, the shredder is now ready for use. When paper is inserted into the feed opening, the shredding process will start automatically and stop when the paper has completed its travel through the feed opening. Also located on top of the shredder is the forward ( ) and reverse ( ) buttons. Their purposes are:
• When the Slide Top is open, the shredding process will start when paper is inserted into the feed opening and will
continue until it has passed through the feed opening.
• The reverse ( )button is used to assist in the removal of a paper jam, which reverses the shredding process prior to a
completed forward cycle, thus clearing the cutters. When switching from reverse ( )to forward ( ), always
allow the motor to stop to prevent possible damage to the motor.
• Closing the Slide Top is used to terminate the AC power to the shredder. It is recommended to turn the shredder off
when the shredder is not being used for a prolonged period of time.
• When the ready LED is lit, it lets the user know that the wastebasket is inserted correctly and that the shredder is
turned on and ready for use. If the ready LED does not light up, make sure that the plug is plugged in, the basket is
inserted correctly and the slide top is fully open.
Shredder capacity:
The ST140MX will shred up to fourteen (14) sheets of 20-lb. bond paper and will accept paper widths up to 8 3/4" (222.25 mm). When shredding small material like envelopes, receipts or a credit card insert them in the middle of the feed opening.
CD’s. DVD’s should be placed in the designated slot marked for CDs and DVDs.
Cautions:
• Keep all loose articles of clothing, ties, jewelry, hair or other small items away from the feed opening to
prevent injury.
• Keep slide top closed when not in use.
• Remove all paper clips and staples from paper before shredding. The ST140MX will cut staples, small paper clips
and credit cards; however, proper discretion is recommended.

ST140MX CROSSCUT PAPER SHREDDER
• Do not place hands or fingers into the shredder throat as serious injury could result.
• When manually changing feed direction, pause long enough for the motor to stop.
• Always turn off or unplug the shredder prior to moving, cleaning or emptying the wastebasket.
• Empty the wastebasket frequently to avoid possible paper jams caused by shredded material being pulled back into
the cutter assembly.
• Never allow children to shred or play with paper shredder or else serious injury could result
Paper jams and motor overload situations:
The ST140MX is equipped with an automatic motor overload and an overheat protection circuit. If the overheat LED should eliminate due to excessive shredding, close the slide top of the shredder for at least 30 minutes to allow the shredder to cool down before trying to resume shredding.
• Operating the shredder at the maximum 14-sheet capacity continuously for a prolonged period of time.
• Exceeding the shredding capacity, eg. Inserting more than fourteen (14) sheets of 20-lbs. paper in one pass, or if the
paper is not fed squarely into the feed opening.
Both abnormal operations may result in the activation of the automatic thermal motor overload protection circuit, which terminates the power to the shredder. A paper jam could cause the thermal motor overload protection to terminate AC power to the motor. Never allow the shredder to remain in a jammed condition with the AC power turned on. If this occurs you should:
In case of a minor paper jam the overload LED will light up:
• Grasp the excess paper from the top and pull it out as you depress the reverse ( ) button. Be careful not to place your
fingers near the feed opening or else serious harm could result.
• Make sure that all of the excess paper has been removed from the feed opening.
• You are now ready to resume normal shredding.
In case of a major paper jam the overheat LED will light up:
• Turn off or unplug the power cord from the AC outlet and wait at least 30 minutes for the thermal overload protection
to reset.
• Plug in the AC power cord and slide the top open. If paper was left inside the feed opening prior to the overload, press
the reverse position and grasp the excess paper from the top and pull it out. Be careful not to place your fingers near
the feed opening or serious harm could result. Clear any excess paper shreds from the feed opening.
• You are now ready to resume normal shredding.
