Introduction
Thank you for selecting the Mark VII High-Speed AutoFolder. Your folder and all the components were 100% tested at our factory. We folded, perforated,
and scored paper, performing over 100 individual functional checks.
Please read and understand this manual completely before attempting to operate the folder. This will prevent most common problems and eliminate op-
erator-associated errors. Most performance related problems are due to inexperience with the wide range of machine adjustments which are available to
you. Understanding these instructions is vital to years of excellent performance by a quality-tested machine.
<<
The machine may not be operated
by more than one person at any
given time!
The machine was de-
signed for safe operation by "one
person only".
<< During the folding process no
other work may be performed on
the machine (for example clean-
ing, etc.).
<< The machine is not a toy, and is
not suitable for use by children!
The overall technical safety concept
of this machine (dimensions, feed
openings, etc.) does not provide for
any guarantee regarding hazard-
free operation by children.
<< Danger of injury! Keep all
loose articles of clothing,
ties, jewelry, long hair or
other loose objects away

<< Danger of injury! Never insert

<< In case of danger switch the ma-
