Featuring the innovative Safety Lock Mechanism & a comprehensive 2 year machine/3 year cutter warranty you can feel assured you are in safe hands.

Once activated the shredder will shut down & a red light will advise you that this safety protector has activated. Built within the safety lock switch is a sheet capacity gauge which is measured to the cutter tolerance. This helps prevent paper jams by ensuring the cutters are not overwhelmed.
