Selecting Speed - 2 Options

Operation

Position Dust Bag

Make  certain  the  dust  bag  is  inserted  and  pro-
perly seated before operation. If a vacuum bag
is not present insert one before powering on the
unit.  Place  one  cardboard  end  of  the  vacuum
bag  down  and  behind  the  two  small  retaining
stands  located  below  the  dust  vent  tube  in  the
waste collection bin at the rear of the machine.
Seat the throat of the vacuum bag over the dust
vent tube and close the cover.

Apply Power

The unit is equipped with a 230v, 50Hz power
supply. Plug adapters may be required. For the-
se units, once the unit has been plugged into a
power source simply toggle the power switch to
the ON position. The unit will automatically adapt
to the input power.

Place Disc in Unit

Place disc in the unit with label side down. Slide
the center of the disc over the disc retaining
spindle (hub ring up). The hub ring is a raised
section on the disc surface near the center. While
not immediately visible to the eye, the hub ring
can be felt by sliding one’s ﬁngertips across the
surface of the disc. If the disc has no label the
hub ring position is the method used to differen-
tiate the label side from the side of the disc that
data is read from or written to. Data is always on
the side from the raised hub.

Select Mode of Operation

The unit has two modes of operation. See sec-
tion on Selecting Speed to determine appropria-
te operational mode.

Introduction:

The basic material of a CD-ROM disc is polycar-
bonate (plastic). This is overlaid with a reﬂective
material  that  can  be  gold,  silver  or  aluminum.
Over this reﬂective material is a hard coating si-
milar to varnish paint that minimizes scratching
of the discs. The discs are 1.2mm in thickness
but the variability from manufacturers is signiﬁ-
cant  with  as  much  as  0.15mm  thickness  diffe-
rences. Coatings on the discs and artwork on top
of the coatings are also highly variable from one
manufacturer to another. The unit is designed to
work with all these factors in consideration. The
unit  grinds  the  information  layer  which  resides
on the ﬁrst 38mm of disc area, measured from
the  outer  edge  of  the  disc  and  inward  towards
the  center.  Some  inkjet  and  thermal  printable
discs have coating beyond this area on the hub
ring.  Printable  coating  that  remains  on  the  hub
ring after processing a disc is normal.

Do not attempt to handle the disc
during a destruction phase.

Speed 1

is the fastest speed. This speed is suitable for
CD-R / RW media. It processes the disc in 14 se-
conds. Actual cutting time of the information bea-
ring sub-layers is 11 seconds. This is the default
speed. Place the slide switch in the up position
and press blue button to activate speed 1. The
three period indicators on the LED will not illumi-
nate when speed 1 is activated. If the results are
not adequate, as measured by complete remo-
val of the printed surface layer so that you can
see the clear polycarbonate, then try speed 2.

Speed 2

is  the  slowest  speed.  Use  this  speed  for  com-
mercially  produced  CD-ROM  media  or  if  the
results of Speed 1 is not adequate. This speed
processes the disc in 26 seconds. Actual cutting
time of the information bearing sub-layers is 21
seconds.  To  activate  Speed  2  place  the  slide
switch in the down position and press blue but-
ton. The three period indicators on the LED will
illuminate when speed 2 is activated.

White Thermal CD-R Media

The Department of Defense uses a sticky label
to identify a CD-ROM disc that contains classi-
ﬁed information. These DoD compliant labels are
similar to an Avery® label used in bulk mailings
that have pre-printed addresses. These labels
have two materials other than the ink: the paper
the ink is printed on, and glue underneath the
paper that holds the label to the disc. When re-
moving sticky labels from the CD-ROM discs, it
may be necessary to slow the unit to Speed 2 in
order for the cutter, which spins at 8,000 RPMs
to cut through the label and then into the infor-
mation bearing sub-layers of the discs.

Verbatim DataLife Plus and Mitsui ColorTherm
white thermal media have a coating composition
that can clog or gum the cutter teeth. If incom-
plete cutting of the information layer on these or
similar discs are experienced, simply rotate the
cutter arm assembly to the right and clean the
cutter teeth with the included wire brush.

Sticky Labels on Classiﬁed CD-ROM disc

The unit is not designed to remove full-face la-
bels, found on after-market CD labeling kits.
