small office shredding. It allows you to place a shredder beside or

under your desk so that you can destroy important documents instead of

throwing them in the trash.The Shredmaster SC 060 is a

larger version of the SC 030 shredder. It is built for larger sized

waste baskets and shreds more sheets at one time.

Strengths / Features:

The

GBC Shredmaster SC-060 is capable of shredding up to 9 sheets of paper

at a time without the need to remove staples or paperclips. It is an

ideal solution for personal shredding of documents at your desk or for

home use in shredding credit card applications, junk mail and private

documents.The Shredmaster SC-060 is designed to fit on

rectangular waste baskets that are between 13" and 16" wide and thus

will fit on most standard office trash cans. Once placed on most

wastebaskets it is still possible to throw out normal garbage without

removing the SC-60.The Shredmaster SC-060 has three

settings. You can set it to shred your documents automatically when you

insert them into the throat. You can turn the shredder on manually into

the forward position so that it will shred small sheets or to help

remove paper jams. You can also set the shredder to reverse in order to

remove paper jams that might occur if you attempt to shred too many

documents at one time. The SC-60 opperates at a speed of 15 feet per

minute which means that it will take approximately 4 seconds to shred

one letter sized document.It comes with an excellent

warranty covering the entire shredder and motor for two years and the

cutting blades for five years. Plus, GBC is one of the easiest

companies to deal with if you have any problems. In most cases they

will simply replace the machine for you.

Weaknesses / Limitations:

The

SC60 Shredmaster Shredder is designed for shredding moderate amounts of

paper. Although it is technically rated for shredding up to 500 sheets

of paper per day, it can not shred continuously for more than about 2

minutes. If you shred continuously for longer than this the motor will

overheat and the shredder will turn itself off. If this happens, the

SC-60 requires a cool down period of approximately 30 minutes before it

can be used again.The SC-60 is a strip cut shredder that

cuts your documents into strips that are 1/4" (6mm) wide. Although a

strip cut shredder is secure enough for most personal and small office

applications, it does produce more waste than a cross cut shredder.

With the SC-60 it is possible to quickly fill up a standard size

wastebasket with shredded material. The SC-60 has a 9" wide

opening for shredding documents. This is designed for shredding letter

sized documents that are fed into the shredder with the 8.5" end first.

This isn't a huge issue. However, it does prevent you from shredding

larger format documents and slows down the shredding process

considerably over a shredder with a throat that is 11" or wider.

Recommendation:

The

SC-060 is a great shredder for individuals looking to put a shredder on

the top of their existing waste basket. It allows you to shred your

documents without loosing the ability to use your trash can for other

items and helps to make shredding easy and convenient.However,

the SC-60 is not a high volume shredder and is not a good fit for

applications where more than a few sheets will need to be shredded at

any given time. Users who attempt to use the SC-60 to shred even

moderate volumes of paper at one time will most likely find that the

shredder will shut itself off leaving everyone frustrated.
