Fellowes Shredder Maintenance Fix - Auto Shredder not working 

I was a little hesitant to open my lx50, but 2 minutes in, I decided I could definitely do it. Running mine in reverse caused a "Paper Jam" between the rollers and the Feed Slot - which actually lifted the white plastic thingy. I literally had to use needle-nosed pliers to remove the packed in paper - which of course, let the feed arm sensor thingy work! I just mainly needed to know how or what to expect when I took the top off! Thanks for the video which gave me the confidence to attempt it!

Thanks so much! It turned out I needed to use a credit card to "wiggle" the paper sensor. Shredder would only work in reverse, dead on forward. Now it works fine. I did follow other instructions to run in reverse and removing paper shreds. But the credit card "wiggle" of paper sensor worked after all that tried. Probably best to clear it out so I don't think I wasted any time. So happy we have these resources. Much appreciation especially in this current economy.

My P-35C was getting very noisy even after a good application of WD40. I took it apart and the paper sensor fell out. It wasn't obvious how it went back together until I watched your video then I got it. I put it all back together with plenty of fresh grease on the drive gears and some oil on the bearings and now it's working well. Many thanks buddy.

Glad to know this video is helping many people. Thank you for your feedback. Having used this shredder for years now, try not to oil too much. Too much oil could wet the paper clogging the shredder and cause damage. If oil, only little drops.

Thanks very much !! My problem was exactly the one you describe, and the explanation of positioning the paper sensor worked perfectly. i have never oiled the shredder in 14 years so your advice embarrased me, and oilcan now out !

Thank you for a very helpful video!! I didn’t realise before I watched it that the plastic piece among the teeth is a sensor. As in your video, I had no paper jam and couldn’t work out why the shredder still wouldn’t work. Different shredder, (Fellowes M-8C) but thanks to you, by adjusting the sensor, it’s now working again.

I waa just about to give up until I saw your video have the same make and model had it for more years than I can remember served me well would have been sorry to have thrown it out but your step by step solution solved the problem now it will probably outlast me. thanks .

Thanks you motivated me into pulling my P-4SC apart and was able to fix my problem simply aligning the sensor again resolved my problem cheers

Thank you very much for the information. I've been using the shredder for many years and I want to keep it.

Note that once you have all the screws removed the two sides need to be pulled apart even though they might feel like there is still something holding them together - mine needed quite a bit of force to separate.

I love how glock makes its own bb guns and how they make them look so real ru-vid.comUgkxnX9wE_Q8zvF75Y5iWzTU3Q4FlrtyGApQ , the only thing is that the slide doesn't move back. The sights and the body structure is so similar to a real handgun, fits in my hand perfectly but I actually ordered it with the 40 pack of Co2 tanks and they never arrived even though it said that they handed It to me. Was not able to test the accuracy since I didn't get everything I purchased which is frustrating and that's the whole reason why I got the bundle so it arrives together. So the Co2 tank happens to be a third party so it makes no sense to put it in the bundle if it doesn't get shipped at the same time, the BB gun arrived first then the Co2 tanks were supposed to arrive someday later but didn't, which doesn't make sense. I recommend just ordering the gun itself so you don't get the same issue I ran into plus there's no option for a refund. How stupid.

I dont have this exact model but (after unplugging) I took needle nose plyers to the paper pieces I saw in and a tiny screwdriver I dug out what else I could. Didnt seem like I moved much but eventually it kicked back on. There is a part inside that overheats with a good jam and that also might need to cool down before it starts working again. Good luck.

thanks sooo much for this help!!!! great it works. 2 days I had and the paper was too much, after this video I tried and its gone. thank you. I believed to order a new. saved, hahaha. thank

Thanks mate. Worked for me. I hate chucking things out when they can be fixed....!

#1 UNPLUG SHREDDER

Thanks alot it’s working again was about to bin it you saved me money 😂

Wonderful. TY, Sir. But may I suggest that the instrumental music be lowered so that your voice is more prominent?

I had trouble with the audio and used closed captions. The captions couldn't keep up with your speech.

Thank you sir you are a life saver

Our office has a model no. C-525 and the tube for the oil seems to be either clogged or needs to be replaced because oil goes in sometimes and sometimes not. Could you help. Thank you.

Hmm. Never knew they needed to be oiled. I will try disassembly and then will add a bit of machine oil. Thanks.

Thank you fixed it for me

Found a flat clamp, w hug ere does it go?
