The cutting mechanism of your document shredder should be cleaned and maintained at regular intervals. Over time, dust and paper debris will accumulate and should be removed from your shredder. This not only prolongs the runtime and life of the shredder, but also reduces the operating noise.

The optimal way to clean your shredder is with special care products. The HP Shredder Oil Sheet contains the optimal oil dosage and can simply be inserted into the paper slot and shredded. The HP Shredder Oil should first be applied in serpentine lines to a sheet of paper and then shredded.

Both variants involve a vegetable lubricant, thus ensuring no harmful substances are released into the environment via the paper waste.

How often you should clean your paper shredder depends on how often it is in use, however at the latest when the shredder starts making strange noises or slows down, you should oil the machine.
