Customer Reviews

Lube it up baby.
No doubt you have neglected your poor shredder and are beginning to wonder why it makes so much more noise than it used to, not to mention clog up with paper dust and gunk? Well like any well used machine it needs lubricating!

Lots of people have written about using vegetable oil on the mechanism which is fine if its used daily and burnt off, but if you shred once every week or two you will find the oil quickly goes off and the smell of rancid vegetable oil will never be removed from your trusty machine. The Fellowes oil is apparently highly refined and has preservatives in it to stop it causing the latter problem. So far it's been fine although the bottle could do with a screwtop nozzle to seal it and reduce messy spillages.

You literally only need to use about 5-10ml for each lube so a 350ml bottle should last you the best part of a year or more and keep your mechanical chopper well oiled and in tip top condition.

Shredder oil
Quite a large bottle of oil, which seems to be ok. Unfortunately the top must be cut off the spout in order to use it, so that the bottle must be stored upright, otherwise the oil spills out.

Shredder oil
Seems fine. Effectiveness will be more evident in a few years.
Post and packing cost rather high compared to product value.
