Frequently Asked Questions
What does the automatic oiler on the HSM19224 do?
It feeds HSM cutting-block oil onto the cutting rollers while the machine runs, so nobody has to pass oiled sheets through by hand. That keeps a micro-cut head near its rated 14-15 sheets per pass on a shared machine. You still need to refill the reservoir with HSM oil from time to time.
Is the SECURIO B35 HSM19224 wider than the standard model?
Yes. With the oiler mounted it measures 26.4 x 20.7 x 34.25 in (670 x 525 x 870 mm), about 50 mm wider than the HSM1922, and it weighs 120.4 lb (54.6 kg). Depth and height are unchanged, so check only the width of the space you have in mind.
Does the HSM19224 keep the lifetime roller warranty?
Yes. HSM extends its lifetime warranty on the solid steel cutting rollers to SECURIO machines rated P-2 through P-5, and this P-5 model falls inside that range. The P-6 and P-7 B35 models do not carry that cover.
Can I shred credit cards in the HSM19224?
Yes, credit cards are on its approved list together with paper, staples and paper clips, and the head carries T-5 and E-4 ratings for card material. CDs and DVDs are not approved for this micro-cut head, so send optical media to a P-2 or P-4 machine instead.
Should I buy the HSM19224 or the HSM1922?
Buy the HSM19224 when the shredder is shared and nobody owns its upkeep, because the oiler keeps the micro-cut rollers lubricated automatically. Buy the HSM1922 when a named person will oil it, when you want the narrower 620 mm cabinet, or when budget is the deciding factor. Both cut identical P-5 particles.
