I am sure there has never been maintenance done on the poor abused machinery. Can't wait to add this to someone's job description! You know the line "and all other tasks as assigned" Great information, Jennifer!

Any oil such as 10wt motor oil will work, just pour it into a margerine container, brush it on with a cheap paint brush and you are in business.. You can also put oil soaked paper throught the shredder. The oil symbol was probably covered because people were using the wrong lubricant Mineral oil is a good clean lubricant for wood, table tops unfinished and cutting boards. it won't get rancid either.

Mineral oil is a good clean lubricant for wood, table tops unfinished and cutting boards. it won’t get rancid either.

It periodically gets bound up with bits of paper and I always think it is just because it's a cheap model. Thought provoking message. I need to check my shredder for lubrication sites too.
