The cutter is user replaceable. The cutter will service
up to approximately 1000 discs.
Do not attempt to replace cutter while ma-
chine is in operation. Caution should be
used when removing and installing cutter.
Cutter teeth are sharp.

ving the unit from the power source is acceptable; the
memory control circuit contains a battery back-up and
will retain the destroyed disc count.

Minor adjustment of cutting depth is possible by ro-
tating the pressure adjustment ring either clockwise
(to relieve pressure on the disc cutting surface) or
counter-clockwise (to increase pressure on the disc
cutting surface).

port to resolve the issue.
Error Code: 500
This shows that 500 discs have been destroyed.
Digital "500" will flash. This is a reminder to cle-

After the Error Code: 500 is displayed and the
unit is reset the LED will display the total discs
destroyed. The example to the left represents
10,230 discs destroyed. The LED will first dis-
play 10 then 230. Turn power switch off and back
on exit this mode and the counter to 000.
Error Code: E00
The unit incorporates a safety feature to prevent
the cutter from operating with the cover open.
E00 shows that the cover has been opened whi-
le power is applied to the unit. Simply shut the
cover completely and the error will reset.
To clean the unit, please remove the dust bag
periodically and dispose of the dust bag in a
trash receptacle.
You can use a small vacuum cleaner to perio-
dically vacuum any dust particles that have ac-
cumulated on the top surfaces of the unit. You
may also use a moist cleaning towel to wipe the
unit down. Please do not use chemical cleaning
agents to clean the unit as the finish of the pla-
stic parts may discolor.
To remove and clean, or remove and replace the
dust bag, open the back cover by pressing un-
der one of the Waste Collection Bin tabs while
lifting up—repeat on opposite side; remove the
bag and insert a new bag. The dust bags are de-
signed to hold the information bearing layers up
to 500 discs. If needed, additional replacement
bags may be purchased using the order form on
the back of this manual. Two dust bags were in-
cluded in the original packaging.
Unit is designed to grind the data layer of a CD-
ROM, CD-R, or CD-RW disc thus making the
information totally unreadable. The resulting
process produces a clear polycarbonate disc;
the residual ink and metals are collected in the
dust bag.
Both the dust bag and the polycarbonate disc
can be discarded in a normal trash container.
However, an alternative recycling program is
offered, which takes all discarded materials and
recycles them for a cleaner environment.
