How do you oil a paper shredder?
There are a couple of ways that you can oil a paper shredder. The easiest way is to put shredder oil on a sheet of paper and run it through the shredder. Run it forward. After the paper has made it all the way through, run it backwards. This will ensure all the shredder blades get coated. I recommend oiling your shredder after every time you empty it. If you have visible access to the shredder's blades, you can squirt oil directly into the blades and run the shredder in reverse for about 15-30 seconds. Be sure to go from the far left to the far right, covering everything.

What oils best for home shredder maintenance?
Shredder manufacturers recommend using "their" oils, of course. Manufactures claim that they specially formulate oils for use in the high temperature environment that exists within the shredder head unit. No doubt, this is true. However, if you've ever used electronic hair clippers, and accidently touched the interior metals parts shortly after use (while taking the unit apart to clean out hair debris), you know they're hot enough to burn skin on contact. While shredders and hair clippers differ in that shredders use rotating metal blades and hair clippers use blades that slide rapidly in opposite directions, both devices need lubrication because they both have interactive metal parts. If you buy a hair clipper set, the lubricant oil it comes with is mineral oil. Shredder oil sells for about $35 a pint, whereas mineral oil can be bought at any supermarket for about $1 per pint. I've used mineral oil to lubricate my paper shredder for 5 years in my office and it still runs like a champ. Fellowes DM65C
How do you fix a jam in your paper shredder?
To fix a paper jam, you must first locate where in the printer the paper jam is, if your printer has multiple paper trays. * When you have located the jam, turn the printer off. * If you can see the paper, remove it slowly and carefully with both hands by pulling the edge out in the direction it would naturally be released. * Open the printer door to look for any stuck paper. * If there are bits of paper still inside the printer, take a piece of heavy-weight paper or cover stock and push it through the printer in the same path. This will push out any bits of paper. * Turn the printer back on. Repeat the steps if the printer still alerts you to a paper jam.
