Service, Professional Puncher
Do not attempt to service your Professional Puncher yourself. Contact
an authorized service representative for any required repairs or major
maintenance for your Professional Puncher.
DO NOT REMOVE THE
MACHINE’S COVER.
There are NO user-serviceable parts inside the machine in order to
avoid potential personal injury and/or damage to property or the
machine itself.
Service, Diesets
Every dieset is thoroughly oiled at the factory prior to shipping. Please
note that it is normal for oil to be present on the first few punched
sheets. During normal use this oil will be exhausted and should be
replaced. As part of regular maintenance, each dieset should be oiled
after approximately 250K punch cycles or sooner. Canon recommends
use of brand 3-IN-ONE oil as it is readily available. Other light machine
oils can also be used.
To oil the dieset, refer to Section 8- Die Set User manual. Please note
that it is normal for oil to be present on the first set of sheets punched
after oiling the dieset. After approximately 25 to 50 sheets oil will no
longer be found on the punched sheet. At this time the Professional
Puncher can be utilized for punching of print jobs.
Refer to Section 8 - Die Set User manual for detailed cleaning
instructions of the crease die.
See Section 8 Professional Puncher Dieset Manual for further
instructions on servicing the Diesets.

Duty Cycle and Product Positioning
The CANON Multi Function Professional Puncher
–
B1 provides a
flexible, cost effective punching solution for light to medium level
punching production environments. It is designed for production print
users that typically punch their documents at an average of 20-30% of
their overall workflow. For customers that run continuous punching for
long runs of over 4 hours, performance may vary or degrade due to a
wide range of media weights and environmental conditions that can
occur.
Maximum Recommended Monthly Volume - The maximum
recommended monthly punch volume should NOT exceed 400,000.
Operating Die Set Supplies
Dies are considered consumables and when worn, must be replaced
since sharpening is not possible.
Each die set has a 90-day warranty from the date of purchase. The
warranty is void if the die is used beyond its specifications.
Punch die life will be maximized if oiled every 250,000 punch cycles or
sooner. (see Dieset Service for details)
Punch die sets have an expected use life of 750,000 punches using
20 lb/75 gsm paper. Crease die sets have an expected life of 500,000
cycles. This is a minimum life expectation only. Die life is NOT
guaranteed due to a wide range of media weights and environmental
conditions that the dies may endure. If you are going to be punching
extended runs that exceed the die use life, it is strongly recommended
that you have sufficient numbers of the appropriate die sets on hand to
continue with minimal downtime.
