Setup and Use of the AccuSet Index Paper Guide.
Your APES machine came with the AccuSet Index ready to be adjusted to your punch. To
zero-in the AccuSet index, choose one of your punching dies that are listed within the label that
has a fine line indicator. For instance, as seen below in figure BB, the 8 1/2” 3-1 has a fine line
indicator and the 8 1/2” 4-1 does not and shouldn't be used for initial setup. Once a fine line
indicator die has been chosen regardless of paper size, punch that size sheet within the APES
and punch. Using the Adjustable Paper Stop Knob on the APES as described in section 12 page
20, fine tune the paper stop until the sheet punch pattern is centered on the page. To determine if
the pattern is centered, fold the sheet over onto itself as shown in figure DD and align the page
ends. If the first and last holes align perfectly you are ready for the next step, otherwise readjust
the Adjustable Paper Stop Knob and repeat hole alignment. Now that the APES paper stop is
aligned, you must manually align the Index Pointer (Figure CC). With a small Philips screwdriver,
loosen the Index Pointer from its mount and move it until its corresponding paper mark aligns with
the fine line indicator you chose (Figure EE). Retighten the screws. Now your APES System is
setup for use for any die and page setup.
