1. Place the bottom strip (textured side faced
down) on the strip recess. Make sure that the
locator hole is attached to the locating pin. Lay
the sheets to be bound on top of the bottom strip.
The correct size of top strip is determined by
using the scale on the backstop to determine the
thickness of the document to be bound.
3. Insert the top strip firmly on to the document
to be bound.
4. Place the pressure bar firmly on the document. The ready
light will turn on indicating that the machine is ready for
binding.
5. Pull the handle all the way down to activate the hot knife
strip. It will will take about 12-18 seconds to cut all the pins.
The indicator light will turn off signifying the completion of the
binding job. Lift the handle and pressure bar to return to their
resting position then slide the bound document towards yourself
to help detach pins that may still be slightly attached to the
strip.
