1. Before You Begin
Roughening Cutter Guide
The book spine is roughened
during its passage between these
guides.
The roughening cutter rotates
under these guides. The clamper
will not move when these
guides are open.
Glue Adjusting Knob
This knob is loosened and locked in de-
sired position. The number on the scale
shows the amount of glue applied to the
book spine in “mm”.
Brush
This brush prevents scatter-
ing of trimmings.
Glue Supply Port
Glue must be supplied in this port
when the fins project about 1 cm
above the surface of melted glue.
Do not fill above the limit (RED)
line.
Glue Temperature Control Knob
This knob is used to adjust the glue tempera-
ture. A high temperature increases the pen-
etration of the glue into the book spine, but
shortens the service life of glue.
The normal glue temperature is 180 degrees
Celsius.
Melt Tank Unit
The melted glue is applied to the
book spine by this unit.
Application Drum
This drum rotation is synchronized
with the motion of the clamper and
applies glue to the book spine.
