The device comprises a pair of rollers (46a, 46b) with cooperating blades, integral with a pair of gears to actuate rotation thereof, which are supported between a rest condition, in which they are held apart from a gear actuating means, and a work condition, in which at least one gear engages a fixed actuation means, generally consisting of a rack (23), and runs thereon. A funnel-shaped part (42) to receive the document to be shredded is mounted integrally with the blade rollers, above them. Once the document to be shredded has been introduced into the funnel, manual pressure applied to the blade-bearing frame (40) moves the blade rollers, which engage the rack causing a rotating movement in opposite directions of the blades, which thus shred the document. Release of the manual pressure on the blade frame allows the resting state to be restored under the action of elastic means (50, 52).
