Precision ground, A-2 tool steel cutters with positive a saw-tooth grip will shred not only paper but corrugated boxes, credit cards, transparencies, microfilm, microfiche, etc. An optional automatic cutter head lubrication system is available.
   
 
 
Aluminum bronze wear pads keep the cutters from riding into the side plates of the shredder and can be field adjusted to maintain tolerances and maximize shredding.
           
               
         
 
   
A paddle wheel crusher, located just ahead of the cutters, enables these versatile machines to crush and shred wastebasket contents, corrugated boxes, etc.
