8 - COVER guide
9 - Fixed guide
A - Channel 1.5 - 20 mm
B - Binding jaw
If the documents are not thick enough, it is necessary to use filling strips called, O.filling
Sticky, to make documents thick enough to bind, which is available from OPUS .
See our website www.opus.pl/en
2. Make sure the COVER guide is correctly inserted into the binding slot (3) (see PREPARATION TO
WORK and diagram above).
3. Lift up the bind and de-binding handle (1) to the open position, vertical.
4. Move the clamp lever (2) completely to the left, till it is locked in position.
5. Put the channel into the binding slot (3) between the COVER guide bar (8) and binding jaw.
Insure that the channel is tight against the side stop right (10) and the front of the chan-
nel is against the COVER guide bar (8) see diagram above. When using shorter channels than
A4 fit and use the adjustable side stop (11). Ensure the shorter channel is in the centre of the
jaw by using the ruler on the COVER guide in the slot and tighten the side stop (11).
The adjustable side stop should be removed before de-binding.
6. Push the handle (1) down, the clamping lever (2) will move to the channel automatically to
hold it firmly. Now pull the handle back to the open position.
7. Take the documents and insure they are even, put them between the covers, check the pages
are centred in relation to the edges of covers.
8. Take the documents and covers and push carefully into the channel between the protru-
sions, which is in the binding slot. NOTE that some O.CHANNELS and O.SIMPLE CHANNELS do
not have protrusions. Make sure the back cover is facing you.
9. Push the handle (1) down. The jaw will close the channel on to the document clamping
them firmly. If you do not feel any pressure, pull the handle back and push it once more till
you fill the pressure.
10. Now pull the handle (1) to the open position, vertical. Move the clamp lever (2) to the left
completely till it locks, then remove the bound documents.
11. If the documents are not clamped together firmly enough, repeat the process 9 and 10 aga-
in. If it is still not bound enough, use a smaller channel or O.Filling sticky.
Important!
Be sure the back cover faces you.
