PAPER
PLUG-IN PERFORATOR
The plug in perforator unit is used for perforating scoring and when folding card cover
stock and should be stored on the rear stowage hooks.
ALWAYS UNPLUG POWER CONNECTORS BEFORE REMOVING FOLD PLATES
OR PLUG-IN PERFORATOR.
Remove the second fold plate and fit the catch tray in position by hooking it over the
opening for the second fold plate. The plug in perforator unit then locates the same as the
fold plate and again, take care not to twist when fitting into position. You may need to
turn the hand wheel and push the perforator unit inwards to engage the drive gear. Plug in
the lower fold plate power connector into the perforator unit. ‘PerF in’ will appear in the
display panel.
For all applications, the unit is set on the bench using the scale to indicate positions of
the blades and hubs. It is important to spread the hubs evenly across the width of the
work to reduce the risk of paper jams.
When perforating or scoring without folding, the upper fold plate must be removed
and replaced with the lower fold plate
.
Ensure that the tilt roller is at zero, plug in the upper plate connector into the lower plate.
To prevent damage to the unused upper plate when scoring or perforating, store safely on
the stowage hooks at the reverse side of the machine.
Press set-up switch (W) down and then up to the Run position, the built in deflector on
lower fold plate will close automatically to the deflect position.
Note: - the Docufold will automatically recognise that the lower plate is in the upper
plate position and that the plug-in perforator unit is in the lower plate position. You do
not need to measure the paper length.
Start the machine with the main switch (T), and select slow speed by pulling out lever
(X) sharply. Press the feed switch (U) to pulse.
The machine will feed sheets for checking and will display ‘Perf 3’ if the counter has
been set to zero. To run the job switch feed (U) to off and then pulse.
Note: - Always run perforating or scoring jobs on pulse feed.
FITTING PERFORATER BLADES
The perforator blades are split into two matching halves and are fitted to the upper hubs
as shown in the drawing using the four screws supplied.
