The Dahle 20392 High Capacity Shredder shreds about twice as many pages than most shredders with the same security levelš”and that is impressive.
Simply turning it on will put in in standby mode, once you insert up to 25 sheets of paper the sensor will activate the motor, shred the pages, and stop the motor.
For more serious shredding add the tray to place your pages on. Push the forward button for the motor to continuously shred until you stop it.
Itš™s not going to automatically stop on you or overheat because itš™s chain driven.
Put a tray on the back as well for even more continuous shredding.
If you somehow manage to jam it you can reverse and save your pages from getting shredded.
It shreds through staples and paper clips like they werenš™t even there.
Itš™s level 5 cross cut is unreadably small.
And compared to other security levels, itš™s actually only in the middle, the others being much more secretive.
Apply the CD tray for, yet again, more continuous shredding. Lots and lots of unreadable data.
All the trimmings fall into a cardboard box which you can easily take out and recycle the bag of trimmings.
There are rollers at the bottom to help remove the box from inside.
It shreds virtually any paper too, having a 16š width accommodating larger applications.
There is even an option for an automatic oiler, so you never have to worry about it.
Otherwise you can pour the oil into the machine like so, or periodically oil some pages and shred them to keep your machine running smoothly.
This method also helps keep the visible parts of your machine cleaner.
Dahle 20392 High Capacity Level 4 Micro-Cut Paper Shredder Review
Finding a paper shredder that offers both a high amount of security and a decent shredding capacity can be challenging, to say the least. Luckily, you search is over now that you've discovered the Dahle 20392. This is a micro-cut shredder that will provide you with a lot of security and allow you to shred up to 30 sheets at a time. Check out this machine's strengths and weaknesses:
Strengths:
The 20392 can shred as many as 30 sheets per pass. This is an excellent amount for a micro-cut shredder and it will help you get rid of your confidential documents in a jiffy. The feed opening is 16" wide so you can get rid of wide-format documents.
Since this is a micro-cut machine, it offers a high amount of security. It can definitely help you protect personal and proprietary information.
This machine has a cutting head that is made out of steel so it's incredibly durable. The cutting head is even strong enough to tear apart CD's, DVD's, credit cards, and documents that still have paper clips and staples attached to them.
The 20392 is perfect for busy departments because it has an enormous 50-gallon waste bin. You can use gusseted shred bags to slightly increase the bin's capacity and to make shred disposal easier.
You can use this machine continuously because it has a thermally protected motor. This device has a top shredding speed of 22 sheets per minute, so it's obviously very powerful.
Your office will stay somewhat peaceful because this shredder's noise is muffled by a wooden cabinet and rubber shock mounts. You won't hear much noise even when you're shredding a large amount of paper.
Overall, the 20392 is very well-constructed and it comes with great warranty coverage. The cutters are covered for life and parts and labor are covered for two years.
Weaknesses:
This shredder's main weakness is that it doesn't have any anti-jam features. Due to this, you will need to shred no more than 30 sheets at a time. You should also not try to shred any objects that this machine can't handle.
The 20392 is a huge machine with dimensions of 46.5" x 27.5" x 24". You will need to be prepared to make room for it. The machine is also heavy (it weighs in at 328 pounds), so you will need to be careful when moving it.
As you can see, the Dahle 20392 is an incredible paper shredder that only has a couple of minor weaknesses. This machine will help you destroy confidential information whether it's on paper, a CD or DVD, or a credit card. You will be able to shred up to 30 sheets at a time so getting rid of your documents will be a snap. Plus, this shredder has two great warranties, a 50-gallon waste bin, and so on. Just make sure you have enough room for it. Check out the 20392 today if it sounds like your kind of shredder.
