Place the paper stack on to the loading table and slide up to the fixed side lay and paper
gate. Release the clamps located at each end of the side lay and slide up towards the
paper stack as demonstrated in fig 8.1. Allow a gap of approximately 0.5mm (1/64 inch)
between the paper and the side lay.
Position the backstop and slide up towards the paper stack allowing a gap (as specified
in the above step).
Depending on the length of the sheet to be creased, the air distribution knob can be
rotated to various positions in order to supply air to different ports. Position 2 is
recommended for most sheet sizes. However, a better result may be obtained by using
the settings below or by experimentation.
For sheets longer than A3 (17”) in order to supply air to the centre of the
stack, ports 2, 3 and 4 open.
For A5 sheets or 8 inches long, ports 1 and 2 open.
For A4 sheets or 11 inches long, ports 1 and 3 open.
For A3 sheets or 17 inches long, ports 1 and 4 open.
For sheets longer than A3 (17”) in order to supply air to the ends of the stack,
ports 1 and 5 open.
For sheets longer than A3 (17”) in order to supply air evenly along the stack,
ports 1, 3 and 5 open.
To control the amount of air supplied to the ports, the air separation knob can be rotated
clockwise to decrease the pressure or anti-clockwise to increase the pressure.
