SOURCE: royal sc120 shredder wont run..

This is the most common problem..."too much paper".
If it won't go in either direction the only option is to open the cutting head of the machine(after unplugging) and to manually try to turn the gears to un-clog the paper.
Once you have cleared the paper from the cutting blades see if it still turns...see if any plastic gears have been damaged. Plug it back in and see if it runs...if it dosn't you may have blown the PCB in which case you should contact Royal at 1-800-524-0799 regarding replacement parts.

ROYAL 150 MX WILL ONLY TAKE 2 SHEETS

Have you ever "oiled" the machine.
ALL cross-cut shredders need to be oiled to help clear out the paper dust and debris generated during the shredding process.
Pour some shredder oil across the cutting shafts while it is running and occassionaly put some oil onto a sheet of paper as you shred it.

How do I unclog my shredder? The papers keep getting stuck in the teeth and the shredder keeps stopping. I've tried pulling it out with my hands but it's not working. Bummer!

Have you ever "oiled" the cutting blades...all cross-cut shredders should be oiled regularly otherwise they clog up with the paper and debris generated by the cutting of the paper...the oil helps feed this material on thro into the shredding bin.

Sometimes spraying shredder oil on the cutting teeth wil work.

You should shred paper with a light weight machine oil poured on the paper to keep the cutting teeth working freely.

Good luck.

P.S. If this doesn't work then just take the head off and cleanj/lubricate any bearings you find.

SHREDDER WILL NOT MOVE GOING FORWARD BUT IT DOES WORK GOING IN REVERSE. WHAT COULD BE THE PROBLEM? CAN IT BE REPAIRED?

Try cleaning the "eyes" where you insert the paper...if that dosnt work you may have "fried" the PCB inside..contact Royal at 1-800-524-0799 for parts assistance.

There is paper stuck in the shredder. I've tried shredder oil and a tweezer.

Alternate reverse and forward several times. Graphite powder or pencil lead along the engaged gear teeth may help. There is probably a "wad of paper" underneath where you can't see it. Be brave and take the shred head apart - pay careful attention so you'll know how to put it back together.

Royal 9 x cross cut shredder wont go through even two pages thick

Put some shredder oil on the paper you are shreding...shred a number of sheets with oil on them so that the oil gets down into the cutting shafts/teeth.

Royal AG15X Shredder Chugging

Yes, I would get some shredder oil( this is a light weight oil ) and pour some of the oil onto the cutting shafts/teeth where you insert the paper...then once in a while it does not hurt to fed a sheet of paper thro that you have put some oil onto so that the cutting teeth remail lubricated.
