I have a Fellows DM65C paper shredder. Over time it seems to have gotten progressively weaker to where now if I put one or 2 sheets of paper in it will shread, but any more than that and it seems that it is overloaded and the blades stall (the motor keeps running.) Can this be fixed?

You need to oil the blades. Go to a office supply store and get oil made just for shredders, do not use any other type of oil. You will be surprised at the difference it will make. A bottle runs about $8.oo Follow the instructions on the bottle.
