3.6 Setting the stitch length
3.6.1 Basic setting of the stitch length
- Fig. 11 -
The setting is dependent on the thickness of the brochure sheets. Adjust notch on scale
by
turning the knurled nut . One graduation line corresponds to approx. 1 mm stitch thickness. A
slight correction may be necessary after changing the wire thickness.
Normal stitching:
The recommended wire length for 2-sheet stitching is approx. 23 mm, the
stitching unit must then be set to 2-sheet stitching.
The recommended wire length for 2-sheet stitching is approx. 26 mm, the
stitching unit must then be set to 2-sheet stitching.
3.6.2 Fine adjustment of the stitch length
- Fig. 11 -
Fine adjustment of the wire length is performed by means of test stitches. If the stitch is not the
required length, more wire can be fed by
turning knob anticlockwise (+), or less wire can be
fed by turning the knob clockwise (-) (cf. scale ).
1 revolution of the knob feeds around 2 mm wire.
