Default Shredder

...
My daughter purchased a document shredder. The name is Shredder
Essentials
Model SES - C810 Serial #B07130500876

After some usage, it stopped working. I opened the casing and found that
there were two nylon gears that had stripped. I contacted Shredder
Essentials on their WebSite and asked for their service manual, and told
them what had happened. That was a couple of months ago, and I haven't
heard from them at all.

I would like to replace the two gears with metal ones. Failing that, I
could just replace the nylon gears with new ones. I have gone through
Google and have had no luck finding a repair kit for this shredder. Maybe
the gear train is a common one and is used in other shredders. Does
anyone
here have any info on this?


I just went through this and learned that parts are not generally available
for home grade shredders.

Darn shame ... mine is now in a landfill and could easily have been repaired
with two gears.
