Opus Atlas 150, User Manual, Page: 2 / 4

Atlas 150 binding machine was designed to bind documents using channels
and covers of METALBIND system. The covers and the pile of pages are
bound from the outside by the metal channel.
Important safeguards
• the machine should be positioned
on sturdy and level surface
• while binding, do not put your
fingers into the binding slot
• be careful when moving
the wedge (heavy)
Preparation to work
Unpack the machine and install the metal bail on the
housing (the adequate holes are drilled in the housing).
Screw the arm (1) to the machine using the allen wrench
attached. Two bars are included to the machine:
• Magnetic guiding bar (7) - shorter, with magnets;
allows to insert the documentation into the channel easily
• Guide & bind bar (8) - higher, with a ruler;
helps to place the document into the channel
and reduces the size of binding slot
The shape of both bars is specially designed to make inser-
ting the documentation in the channel as easy as possible.
Put the magnetic guiding bar (7) on the binding jaw and insert
the guide & bind bar (8) by the back wall of the binding slot
(3). The cut side of each bar should be directed to the inside
of the binding slot (3).
The correct composition of bars is shown on the picture
(see also theprofile of binding slot on next page; section Binding 5).
The machine is ready to work.
