The reliable, AU895XA paper shredder is ideal for home/office use. This reliable compact machine features ShredSafe technology where a safety power shut-off will engage when "forced entry" is detected. When not in use, the cover plate completely closes the feed entry. Durable steel cutters shred documents up to 8 sheets of paper or 1 credit card per pass into 7/32" x 1 27/32" pieces. Includes an integrated handle for easy emptying of the 3.4-gallon wastebasket.
