TROUBLESHOOTING

A. Clearing paper jams:

WARNING:

 Turn machine off and unplug cord from its receptacle. 

1. If a jam occurs in between the metal sealing rollers, remove any remaining forms from the 
hopper.  Remove the top cover and the upper fold plate.  Remove the jam-clearing tool (located 
under top fold plate), apply the tool to the upper metal roller (Figure 8) and turn clockwise 
(

Caution:

 Do not apply excessive force or rollers may be damaged) until the paper jam is clear.  

Remove the jammed form and return tool in holder and reinstall the upper fold plate. Reinstall 
cover and press the start button.  

Note:

 Press the black button (Figure 9) near the power cord inlet to reset the breaker if necessary.  

DAILY MAINTENANCE

1.  It is recommended to let forms cool for one-half hour, from the laser printer, before folding and seal-
ing.  This allows toner to set on the forms, and static electricity to discharge.  The FD400 Jogger is 
recommended for best results.  The Jogger squares the forms and dissipates heat and static created 
by laser printers.

2.  If toner builds up on the metal sealer rollers, clean the rollers with a lint-free cloth dampened spar-
ingly with a mild household cleaner.

3.  Clean in-feed wheels and fold rollers with Formax-recommended roller cleaner & rejuvenator to re-
move paper dust and toner.  A damp cloth with water is the best alternative. 

CAUTION:

 Do not use any 

chemicals other than the roller cleaner & rejuvenator or water.

2. If a jam occurs in the fold plates, remove fold plate and remove paper.  Reinstall fold plate.
