Opening the front door to bypass the timed shutdown can result in jams or damage to the unit.

Page 6: Power
3.2 – Power Power: The Model DS-400 uses a three horsepower, 3-phase motor to run its cutting chamber with a one horsepower single phase 120V vacuum motor run off of the main incoming power. The following table lists the recommended disconnects for the DS-400 which should be installed to local electrical code by a licensed electrician only. -
Page 7: Vacuum Installation Instructions
3.4 – Vacuum Installation Instructions Place the vacuum cabinet next to the disintegrator cabinet as shown so the holes in the sides are lined up with each other. Then open doors on the cabinets and feed the vacuum hose through the hole in the bottom of the right side of vacuum cabinet and fit over the angled tube of the transition in the disintegrator cabinet. -
Page 8: Startup And Operation
The Model DS-400 was designed to destroy solid state media, optical media, and paper products. But as with any type of office machine, it can be overloaded or jammed if overfed. Product destruction rate depends on the material, size, and desired particle size. -
Page 9: Shreddable Materials
Paper All capacitors, batteries, and liquid-crystal displays should be removed from solid state drives and other solid state media before running through the Model DS-400. This will often involve opening the product before running it through the unit. This unit is not intended for shredding rotational hard drives. Shredding rotational hard drives on this machine will cause damage to the machine and void your warranty. -
