ALPINA MEAPA4140/001 Paper shredder

This home paper shredder from alpina is suitable for many different places, such as the study or office. Sometimes you have documents that you don't want to just throw in the trash because they contain sensitive information. This paper shredder also works for destroying credit cards. 

Shredder for paper: 6 A4 sheets at a time 

The automatic shredder cuts your paper into strips. The cutting strip cuts 6 sheets of 80-gram A4 size paper at a time. It catches the small paper strips under the blades, in a 10-liter collection container.

Easy to operate

Operating the shredder is very easy. On top of the paper shredder is a control button with 4 modes:

If you use the shredder regularly, then it is best to set it to the 'auto' position. When shredding is complete, the shredder then automatically returns to standby. The shredder may jam if you have put more than 6 A4 sheets in it, for example. Using the 'rev' and 'fwd' modes, you can adjust the direction of the blades to remove the paper.

Protected against overheating

If you destroy a lot of paper, the shredder gets hot inside. The built-in protection against overheating shuts down the unit to prevent damage. Let the shredder cool down for at least forty minutes after two minutes of use before using the paper shredder again.
