How to bind
1
Measure document using colour coded guide
(fig.1)
2
Select comb which fits your document (fig.2)
Use the table to choose a suitable comb size. Please
note that this guide is based on 20lbs/80gsm paper. The
sheet capacity of combs will vary depending on the type
and thickness of the cover sheets you have chosen. If in
doubt select the next comb up in capacity.
3
Load comb onto machine (fig.3)
Insert the binding comb next to the white positional
arrow on the machine, behind the metal comb support
fingers, with the open side of the comb pointing
upwards.
Note: If using Swingline
™
GBC

ProCombs™ the white
arrow on your comb should align to the white arrow on
the machine.

Open comb by turning lever towards you (fig.4)
The coloured arrows adjacent to the opening comb
act as a guide as to how far to open in order to allow
punched sheets to be easily inserted.
Note: If using Swingline

coloured line on your comb should align to the coloured
arrows on the machine for faster binding.

Select document size (fig.5)
Rotate the edge guide to the paper / cover size you
wish to bind; A4 (297mm x 210mm) or Letter (8 1/2”
x 11”). When using oversized covers, rotate the edge
guide to the oversize position, punch the covers for your
document and set aside. Then rotate the edge guide to
select either A4 or Letter and proceed.

Load pages into slot (fig.6)
You can punch 2 cover sheets (0.2mm) or up to 15
sheets of paper (20lbs/80gsm) at a time. Select the
quantity of sheets to punch and tap the edge of the
sheet stack against a flat surface to ensure that all
sheets are aligned. Push the side of the stack to be
punched into the punching slot as far as it will go, and
slide left to align with the edge guide. When properly
aligned, both of the two red flags visible on the top
cover of the binder will turn green.

Maintenance
Please ensure that the
clippings tray is emptied on a
regular basis. This will prevent
blockage and ensure that the
unit is always ready to punch.
The clippings tray can be
accessed from the back of the
machine.
In order to prevent overloading never try and punch more
than the maximum numbers of sheets recommended (15
sheets of 20lbs/80gsm). The unit is maintenance free if
handled correctly.
