9.0 Recommended Spare Parts List

1.0 2230S/2250X INTRODUCTION

This service manual covers adjustment, disassembly, operation, preventative maintenance, troubleshooting procedures and contains an illustrated parts list for the GBC Shredmaster 2230S/2250X shredders. The GBC Shredmaster 2230S/2250X straight cut and cross-cut models are designed for small offices and low volume requirements.

Innovative engineering has provided this shredder with the following operating and safety features:

1. Automatic Operation - The unit begins to operate when paper actuates the trigger in the shredder throat area. The motor stops running when the paper has cleared the cutting head and after the shredder has timed out.
2. Overload Warning - Whenever the capacity of the shredder is exceeded the unit will stop shredding and the “Reverse” icon will illuminate.
3. Bin Full - When the shred bag becomes full, the motor automatically turns off and the “Bin full” icon will illuminate. The shredder will not operate until the shredded material is either compacted or emptied.
4. Door Ajar - When the door of the shredder is not fully closed, the “Door Ajar” icon will illuminate. This is a safety feature that will only allow the shredder to operate when the cabinet door is in the closed position.

Before using your GBC Shredmaster shredder, carefully read the operating instructions in this manual. Once you have gained experience and familiarity with its operation, you will be better equipped to use the remaining sections of this manual to troubleshoot and repair the shredder.

5.O 2230S/2250X TROUBLESHOOTING

The 2230S/2250X utilizes two rotating cutting shafts, which are driven by an electrical motor to shred paper. The upper and lower cutter blades are driven by a series of external double and single drive gears.

When the rocker Standby/Off /Reverse switch (S1) is depressed in the “I” position, the green control light will illuminate to indicate the shredder is in the standby mode. When the mechanical actuator is triggered on, power is supplied from the hot side of the circuit through the following components: the fuse, door ajar switch, bin full switch and the motor. The neutral line is fed through the control board, power switch, trigger switch (only in the auto mode) and the motor.

Stand-by Mode When the shredder is in the standby mode and the door of the shredder is opened, the door ajar icon illuminates. The normally closed door adjar micro switch is opened and

prevents power to the motor until the door is closed.

When the bag full flap switch is opened, the bag full icon will illuminate. The opened switch prevents power to the motor until the shredder bag is either cleared or emptied.

Jam Stopper When the shredder is severely loaded, the jam stopper circuitry senses the condition and illuminates the reverse icon.

Motor - The motor is a 1/8 Hp, thermally protected gearmotor which is designed for intermitent operation.

Capacitor - The purpose of the capacitor in the 2230S/2250X shredders, (all Voltages) is to assist the motor in starting and running.

5.O 2230S/2250X TROUBLESHOOTING

P.C board - The P.C board senses the following conditions; door ajar, bin full and jam state. The appropriate control panel icon will illuminate when the shredder is in any one of these conditions.

Safety Switches - The safety switches are both normally open micro switches which are actuated by a two triggers on the cabinet door (100V only). The switches are normally open when the door is closed and when the machine head is installed on the cabinet. The 115V and 230V models utilize a single safefy switch actuated by a trigger on the cabinet door.

Flap Switch - When the shred bag is full of shredded material, the bag full flap switch is actuated by the flap and removes power from the motor circuit.

5.4 Testing Electrical Components

WARNING: Always disconnect the power cord from receptacle before making continuity or resistance tests.

Micro Switches Set meter to read continuity. Check switches for continuity from common to normally closed contacts and infinity from common to the normally open contact. Actuate the switch for proper open and closed checks to common.

Fuse P.C Board Set meter to read continuity. Check the fuse between AM8 and AM9 on the fuse p.c board for continuity.

Control Board Motor Output Voltages - Set DVM to read 200VAC on the control board for the below checks.

Forward Mode

• Check for 115VAC present across AM8 and AM5 for the forward mode Reverse Mode
• Check for 115VAC present across AM8 and AM4 for the reverse mode.

5.O 2230S/2250X TROUBLESHOOTING

Malfunction corrections are based on visual observations made by the operator. The causes of the malfunctions are isolated by the symptom of the malfunction and noting at which point in the operating cycle the malfunction occurred. Malfunctions may be pinpointed to a defective electrical component or mechanical part by referring to the Principles of Operation, the troubleshooting guide and the wiring diagram.

The troubleshooting guide chart that follows is arranged in order of the normal operational sequence. When a malfunction occurs, read down the SYMPTOM column until you find the appropriate description for your symptom. Read the corresponding PROBABLE CAUSE, then perform the recommended procedure in the CORRECTIVE ACTION column. When replacing electrical components that have push on terminals, label the electrical leads that were removed, to facilitate reconnecting them. Refer to the wiring diagram in Figure 5.7 to resolve any wiring difficulties that may occur.

WARNING: Always unplug the shredder to avoid possible electrical shock hazard before attempting to perform any repairs.

6.0 2230S/2250X DISASSEMBLY/ASSEMBLY/

ADJUSTMENTS

1. The shredder is easily assembled by following the disassembly instructions in the reverse order.

6.8 Cutter Timing (Cross Cut Model Only)

The 2250X cutters must be aligned the ensure proper chip size. These spurs are shown in Figure 1.

Upon reassembly, slight rotation of the cutter gears may be necessary to align the teeth of the cutter gears when installing. Before installing the remaining gear train, test the chip size by manually shredding one sheet of paper. Failure to align the cutters will result in incomplete shredding and reduced shred capacity.

7.0 2250X MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES

Make sure you disconnect the shredder from its power source before cleaning. The cover and cabinet may be cleaned with a soft cloth moistened with a mild detergent and warm water. Do not use chemical cleaners or solvents as these may have a harmful effect. Use detergent sparingly to avoid contact with electronic components.

Whenever the cover has been removed for corrective maintenance, visually inspect for defects such as loose screws or nuts, damaged wire insulation, loose terminals, etc. Correct any defects before returning the shredder into service.

Periodic lubrication of the cutter gears is not required. However, when gears are replaced they should be lubricated with a good quality gear lubricant.
