Wastebasket Lining
The instructions say not to use a bag to line the wastebasket. What is the reason for that? I have some 4-gallon small trash bags that I think would fit the wastebasket well and make disposal of the shredded material more convenient. However, I don't want to try it if that would really damage the unit or be a safety hazard.
Its not really a hazard but they have this mechanism that in order for the shredder to work it has to be touching each other , so they may think the bag might cause it not to touch , so the shredder won't shred. I shred the paper then when its full just put it in the trash bag after
