SETTING THE FOLDS
Follow the instructions below to set up your fold if it has not already been done for you. When you
have it folding properly, remove the tray when you attach either the Knife folder or the Stacker.
The output tray will be installed on the Knife folder (see below), but it is not used with the Stacker.
On folding machines, a fold is made when the paper is fed into one of the fold plates, hits the stop
set by the user, and then is folded at that point by the rollers that push it through the machine. So for
instance, if you want a 4 panel fold on an 11 inch long paper, you would set the stop on fold plates 1,
2, and 3 at 2.75 inches, 1/4 the length, as shown below. The 4th fold plate would be closed. (To
close a fold plate, you remove it and replace it with a special Close Fold Plate that comes with the
machine).
IF YOU ARE OPERATING THE PH-17 BY ITSELF
