Will only work or shred when in reverse mode. how can i repair this problem?
Simple to solve!
Get some longnose pliers or strong tweezers.
Unplug the beast. You do not want to shred your finger nails, or your fingers.
Flip the mechanical part upside down. You will find small pieces of papers near the rollers. Pull them out with tweezers or pliers.
Keep hands out of harm\'s way, plug shredder and make it run in reverse for 1/10 of a second.
Unplug and remove more paper impacted in between rollers.
Repeat last two steps until no paper is seen by the rollers.
Plug and continue shredding your papers
Piece of advice. Do not shred your credit cards in shredder. Scissors are cheaper and do not mess your shredder!
SOURCE: shredder
Check for stuck paper and remove if any. Then check if motor is ok with a multimeter and also main switch.
SOURCE: My shredder stop shredding. has paper caught in it
Shredder drive gear is probably shredded - hard part to find or replace usually. Could mean a new shredder;-(
SOURCE: Royal 15mx only works in reverse after clearing jammed paper
try resetting the shreddar, unplugging it waiting for about 20 seconds and then plugging back in. Check to make sure there is no paper or paper clips stuck in the shreddar, make sure the unit is properly mounted on bin, the overheat light isn't on is it? if none of this helps and you have a warranty on your shreddar now would be a good time ot call them as you might have a hardware problem.
