 1100VDC. I wonder if it means the output is railed, and you will OUCH if you touch it? 

No affiliation. Probably a good deal if you can fix it. I don't think the schematics are out there for download, but I did repair one a few years ago with a hard-copy manual that did have them, so they do exist in the wild. IIRC I had to replace all the output FETs (they were all shorted) I managed to light myself up as well while debugging the thing; I swear I heard a train whistling-like noise in my head when it happened.
