In order to have this quest become available, I had to complete Thaelin's Quick Fix first. Presumably, if you pick up / complete Decommissioned Mission before handing this quest in, you will no longer be able to obtain this quest.

Confirmed, first complete Thaelin's Quick Fix, without taking Decomissioned Mission. This quest is a brearcrumb for Decomissioned Mission quest.
For anyone that is wondering how to get this mission, you have to have done Thaelin's Quick Fix, which is accessed by doing Through the Looking Glass, So if you go there and see nothing except Maraad's quest, don't fear.

What to do
Description
Hey! I hear there's a curious object nearby. Scouts say it's some kind of shredder manual. Go check it out for me, will ya? I wonder if it has to do with this new prototype I've been hearin' about...
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Decommissioned Mission
Ketya Shrediron, Your new Iron Shredders are a menace to our own soldiers. Decommission the prototype and store it out of the way until you've worked out the kinks. I will send Engineer Trak to work on it in the meantime. - Orgrim Doomhammer
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Vol. X Pages ?
That shredder had a manual jammed in the cockpit, but it's missing a lot o' pages. If we can find those manual pages, I'd bet my third toe I can get the prototype shredder working again. I coulda swore I saw a few of those pages floatin' about in Archenon Siegeyard. Maybe the orcs there carry them.
