Stacker Assy.
AutoCreaser Pro 33A
The stacker unit on the machine is used to catch the sheets once they have been
creased or perforated.
Setting the optional stacker assembly
1.
Assemble the stacker unit to the machine as shown in fig 5 below.
Important
Ensure that the stacker unit has been assembled to the machine properly. However,
if it has not, the connection on the magnetic switch will be broken and the machine
will not operate (see Trouble shooting pages for details).
There are two side guides on the stacker unit; a left handed (fixed) guide and a right
handed (movable) guide held on by a magnetic strip. There is also a left hand extension
guide. The guides will control the way in which the paper is collated by setting their
positions on the stacker bed.
2.
Place a single sheet (from the stack to be creased / perforated) on to the stacker bed
against the fixed ‘left hand’ guide.
3.
Position the ‘right hand’ side guide on to the stacker bed leaving a minimum
clearance of approximately 1mm each side of the sheet.

CREASING
Note
1. Perforating and creasing can be carried out simultaneously. However, if any
adjustment is made to the roller tilt mechanism in order to compensate for the
perforation line being ’out of square’, this may effect the accuracy of the crease. If
this occurs creasing and perforating must be carried out as separate operations.
2. By adjusting the outfeed drive tyres relative to the drive hubs it is possible to stear
the sheet, (i.e. By placing the tyre on top of the hub one side of the paper will stear
faster on that side).
The components and tools required to install the perforator are contained in the despatch
kit supplied with the machine, they are listed below.
1 off Set of standard perforation ‘56 tooth’ blades.
1 off Set of standard hardened anvils.
1 off Perforator stripper.
1 off 3mm bondhus wrench / allen key
1 off 2mm bondhus wrench / allen key
The perforator blades are split into two matching halves
and are fitted to the drive wheels as shown in the
photograph using the four screws supplied.
A hardened anvil is fitted to the drive hub as shown in the
photograph also using the four screws supplied. Again the
anvils are made from matching halves.
Important: The perforator blades are very sharp and
care must be taken whilst handling.
Do not mix the matching pairs of blades or anvils.
Perforating ‘Spares’ kits
For perforating and other types of paper, various spares kits are available which can be
assembled to the machine in the same fashion. They are listed below along with a range
