Questions and answers
motor runs but paper won't shred
If the motor runs but the paper does not shred on the Embassy ELITE LF1400 Series, possible reasons include:
1. Overheating Protection – If the shredder recently overheated, it may need up to 60 minutes to cool down before functioning properly.
2. Incorrect Paper Insertion – Only paper should be used in the auto feed tray, and credit cards should be shredded through the manual feed slot.
3. Paper Jam – Folded paper or inserting additional sheets while the auto feed tray is in use may cause a jam.
4. Safety Mechanism – The shredder operates only when used with the supplied basket, which has a built-in sensor.
5. Power or Sensor Issues – Ensure the shredder is properly plugged in, turned on, and that the waste bin is correctly positioned.
6. Manual Feed Limit – Exceeding the 12-sheet manual feed capacity may prevent shredding.
Checking these factors can help identify the issue.
