Formax FD 8600 Cross Cut Paper Shredder

Description of the Formax FD 8600 Cross Cut

The Formax FD 8600 Cross Cut Paper Shredder accepts staples, paper clips and credit cards with ease and reliability. The Formax 8600CC shreds up to 28 sheets at a time, at a rate of 20 feet per minute. The extra-wide 16” feed opening allows for a larger selection of paper sizes and forms, including green-bar computer forms. The continuous-duty motor allows for non-stop operation during your busiest shredding times. Shredding is quick and easy thanks to the optical sensors within the feed opening, which detect paper and automatically starts or stops operation. Some shredders have complicated control systems with unclear functions and setup. The Formax 6500’s LED control panel is user friendly, with clear to read buttons and simple setup methods. If shred capacity is decreased, simply press the reverse button for 5 seconds and the auto cleaning function will cause the motor to run in reverse for 1 minute. After 4 hours of use, the LED control panel illuminates and indicates that the cutting blades should be oiled. To maintain the Formax 8600CC while the machine is running and increase performance, choose the optional EvenFlow™ Automatic Oiling System. A great and beneficial feature is the self-diagnosis system records operation time, the number of auto-reverse sequences, volume of paper shredded, and displays information for service technicians.

Safe operation is a vital component to think about when purchasing a paper shredder. The Formax 8600CC has a Safety Circuit Breaker, perfect for any shredder malfunction. Another safety feature is the Door Safety Sensor, which automatically cuts power to the Formax 8600 if the cabinet door is opened. Formax stresses the importance of durability and accessibility. The parts of this cross cut paper shredder are hard-wearing and made of high quality material. The heat-treated steel cutters are specially ground, long-lasting, and require little oiling or maintenance. The Formax 8600CC is powered with the efficient AC geared-motor and heavy duty steel gears, which emit minimal operation noise. The all-metal cabinet is mounted on sturdy casters, making relocation a piece of cake. The waste bin is extremely strong, holds 26 gallons, and comes with a Lifetime Guarantee. Sensors detect when the shred bin reaches full capacity and automatically cuts power to the shredder.
