Top cover safety interlock does not always work, but pressure on the top rear cover starts the shredder.
Cause: Over time the the top cover no longer engages the safety lockout. Due to plastics used and the plastic tabs employed wear down and give a little.
The safety cutout is a clever little bit of ingenuity but over time and use, it wears. If it was a little stronger it would be ok.

Now vacuum up any paper dust and tiny shreds of paper. Small pliers or tweezers come in handy here.

Locate "snubber" in the red rectangle. Notice how the round plastic pin goes into the upper plastic sleeve, if you take the further steps to "go inside" and clean, the pin needs to go back here.

Carefully attach sticky pad to plastic "plunger" The pads were from Lidl, so I had them lying about. The small one 10mm x 1mm thin. The added thickness makes the plunger push switch actuator down further. Thats the repair done.

Thanks for your help. What is the cause when the Shredder will not pick up the 60X shhets and shred? Do I need to replace the 4x Rubber Rollers/ Are they available please? Thanks

Hi Steve, The four rollers may glaze over, just wipe with a damp cloth. (Rubber cleaner or IPA alcohol, lens wipes).
Just looked at my tyre / rollers and the rear pair are ribbed with some wear and the front pair are ribbed but look in better condition. The tyre's are all tight on each wheel and not loose or slipping round.
I would make sure the shedder works in "manual" mode, hand feed a sheet in the top slot. Check the time out function works, then try a few flat sheets in the hopper tray. I thinks it works best if the paper to be shredded is not too glossy, stapled or clipped together. Also paper with hard creases / folds does not pick up well.
Do the rollers actually rotate ?
Check the pressure back plate is free to move onto the paper stack.
That's all I can think of right now.
Q. Is the problem not shredding or not picking up sheets or both ?

I've got a Rexel 100x shredder, if I power the machine on it only feeds the paper 1cm and switches off. Then I
power it on and it feeds the paper 1cm and powers off.
Hi Hannes,
Just fixed a similar fault in my (cira 2005) Rexel Stack Shred 80X .
It would only feed 1cm of paper then show paper jam (both directions).
Turned out to be a failed component on the circuit-board.
If you are not used to working with mains electricity it would be best to get a professional repair that will probably involve half an hour of labor and a $2 component.
The faulty component in my shredder was a 1.5 microfarad 630 volt polyester capacitor being used as a capacitive voltage dropper power supply.
This probably caused the power supply to be very weak and partially fail whenever I tried to do any shredding.
Looking at the circuit, it's rather amazing that Rexel have used a capacitive dropper (a fairly primitive form of power supply known for a tendency to long term failure)
Indeed, the capacitor is still being continually stressed (powered up) even when the shredder's rear power switch is 'off'. Best to turn off at wall when not in use.
