Fellowes DM65C stops about two seconds into job?

I have picked up a Fellowes DM65C that will stop about two seconds into a shredding job. The red light comes on. I have to turn the unit off and on again to get it to start up again. I generally have to turn the unit off and on again several times to shred the paper. I have insured the trash container is inserted properly so that does not seem to be the problem. Since I just received this unit I have read the manual and put some vegtable oil on the blades. If anyone can think of what the problem may be, please let me know. (I do not see any kind of a reset switch)

I oiled the blades with vegtable oil and the unit no longer stops.
