Product Description
The Formax FD 8502AF AutoFeed Office Shredder boosts productivity with a dedicated AutoFeed hopper that holds up to 175 sheets (up to 11" x 17"), allowing users to load, press start, and walk away—no more hand-feeding stacks. The standard hand-feed slot accepts 22–24 sheets at a time with a wide 16" throat for everyday shredding tasks. Built for heavy office use, it features a user-friendly LED control panel with load indicator, heat-treated steel cutting blades, a rugged steel cabinet, a lifetime-guaranteed waste bin, and a powerful AC geared motor for long-lasting performance and secure document destruction. To reduce energy consumption, ECO Mode automatically enters standby when inactive for 5 minutes.
