*Only use a non-aerosol vegetable oil in long nozzle container such as Fellowes 35250

performance. If not oiled, a machine may
experience diminished sheet capacity, intrusive
noise when shredding and could ultimately
stop running. To avoid these problems, we
recommend you oil your shredder each time
you empty your waste bin.
