Life span of the product
SOURCE: Runs continuous when turned on, but stops when paper is inserted
I owe this to a Steve-EE.
Mine was the LED where the paper feeds. $1.69 for a 2 pack.

Yes you do need to oil the blades, but it is important to get the right oil. Most stores that sell shredders, like Staples Office Supply, also sell shredder oil. J.
SOURCE: I need to replace the plastic guides in a Staples
did you ever figure out where to get these guides? i need them too. jeff
SOURCE: I have the Model SPL-QW120D
There is a door switch that might be defective and that is why it will not run, replace door switch.
SOURCE: Automatic switch does not shut off after shredding
These shredders have a "paper in" sensor. This is either optical or mechanical.
Sounds like the sensor is blocked and therefore "thinks" there is still more paper left, and this is why it keeps going.
Before you do anything UNPLUG THE SHREDDER.
The sensor is located about in the middle and at the level of the blades.
If it's mechanical, you should see a little finger, else it is electronic.
Shine a light in the area and you should be able to spot where the blockage is.
A shot with compressed ais usually gets rid of the offending particles.
After you're finished working on it, set it back securely on the basket and plug it in.
