NOTE!
While shredding, repeated reversing (swit-
ching between forward and backward ope-
ration) is normal. This is part of the shredding
process and does not indicate a failure.
Smart shredding function
The intimus FlashEx has a smart shredding function.
When a device is fed into the machine, it is possible
the cutting rollers do not immediately grip the device.
In this case the machine reverses automatically. This
brings the material to shred into a new position.
This sequence can happen up to ve times in successi-
on. As soon as the cutting rollers grip the device, they
start shredding it.
If after ve sequences the cutting rollers cannot grip
the device, the cutting mechanism stops (see „Failure",
p. 13).
"Cutting mechanism ready" / "Cutting mechanism
not ready" indicator
The curved pilot lamps (Fig. 1/9) show whether materi-
al can be fed into the machine or not:
Green light: machine is ready!
The cutting mechanism can be fed.
Red light: machine is busy!
The cutting mechanism is already working and
cannot be fed.
Stopping the shredding process manually
The shredding process can be manually stopped at any
time by brie y pressing the function button (Fig. 1/1)
or the reverse button (Fig. 1/5).

After 10 min without use the machine shuts
