Intimus 20CC3 handles about 5 sheets of paper at a time and shreds at a rate of 8 feet per minute. Feed your paper into the 9" throat opening. The hardened steel cutting shaft shreds your paper, staples, and paper clips into tiny, 5/32" x 1 1/8" particles. Intimus provides a limited warranty on this cutting shaft. Paper jam got you bogged down? The Auto Reverse function instantly detects a paper jam and runs in reverse until the error is corrected. The mobile casters offer easy relocation options and can be locked for stationary operation. Forget the overwhelmingly noisy and disruptive shredders. The Intimus 20CC offers the patented Silentec system, a noise insulation system. The spring mounted shredder block absorbs sound waves before you hear them. The removable catch basket holds about 5 gallons of shred waste. This shredder is durable thanks to its shock resistant plastic construction.
