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 top fold plate and fit the catch tray in position by hooking it over the
opening for the top 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.
For all applications, the unit is set on the bench, using the scale to indicate the 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.
1. 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 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 the start button, the built in deflector on the fold plate will close automatically
to the deflect position.
Note: - the Docufold Pro 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.
Press the start button again to run the job, or the ‘3’ button to run three test sheets.
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.

NOTES:-
When perforating or scoring with folding, the upper fold plate remains in position,
at the top.
NOTE:-
2. If any of the fold plates, or the plug in perforator unit are removed from the machine;
the guard circuit is automatically broken, for safety reasons, to prevent the fold
rollers from rotating.
