  If the motor of your Spear & Jackson Paper Shredder won't start, there are a few potential reasons: 1. **Collection Box:** Ensure the collection box is correctly fitted and pushed firmly into position. Also, make sure the safety switch on the box is in the ON position. 2. **Overload Protection:** Turn the operating mode selection switch to the “OFF” position, then press the reset switch and switch the device back on. 3. **Power Supply:** Check the socket, cable, lead, plug, and fuse for any damage. If you find damage, have it repaired by qualified personnel.

  If your Spear & Jackson Paper Shredder's motor starts and stops immediately, it could be due to: * **Cylinder Reversal:** The cylinder might be running in reverse. Try changing the rotational direction using the switch. * **Material Softness:** The shredding material might be too soft. Insert wood or dried branches to provide more rigidity. * **Blade Jam:** The shredder blade might be jammed. You'll need to clear the jam.
