ProAction Shredder Problem?

I recently bought a ProAction 10 page shredder at Argos.
it was working fine until the paper started to jam a few times. I managed to clear the paper a few times and used the reverse option but there was this time when this did not work so I used a sharp knife edge to remove the excess paper from the motor (i unplugged the shredder beforehand). I managed to clear the jammed paper but now the shredder is damaged it seems that a few plastic attachment on the motor have been accidentally broken off and now the shredder is making a funny noise and only shreds 2 sheet of A4 paper before it goes again. What do I do... I spent £30 last week?

My ProAction Shredder with which I have been delighted has suddenly stopped working for no reason. I have cleaned the sensor after having unplugged it but still it is dead.

Will I have to buy a new one or can it be repaired?

Thank you

My ProAction shredder jammed but I was able to clear the jam. However, it will not work in the auto position and although the motor is working in the reverse position, nothing is happening.

I bought a shredder from Amazon about 18 months ago - £60 - it works OK but does not like continuous running - certainly no more than 5 minutes - it overheats and cuts out for 5 minutes - cools down and resets itself. It claims 11 sheet capacity but 2 or 3 seems to suit is best. I now no longer use it and resort to burning confidential papers.

If you have the paperwork you might consider taking it back to the store - do not tell them about what you did with the knife.

Good luck...
