Inspecting Shipment

This machine has been carefully packed to prevent damage during shipment. However, claims for damage or loss are the responsibility of the recipient. Inspect all shipments as soon as they are received. If there is any noticeable damage, note it on the freight bill. Visual and/or hidden damage must be reported to the claims department of the carrier within 15 days. Contact your dealer if you need any assistance. Check the contents of the box against the packing list on page 8. Make sure there are no missing items.

Uncrating

The Titan 265 weighs approximately 1780 lbs (807kg). DO NOT risk personal injury or damage by attempting to move machinery with makeshift equipment or inadequate manpower. This machine is shipped on a wooden skid and enclosed in a protective, corrugated top. The machine is secured in place with (4) lag screws. All accessories are packed in a separate box.

Remove the carton by removing the nails or staples holding it to the skid and lift it straight up over the cutter. If you don’t have the ceiling clearance to do this, carefully slit the carton down the side and then unwrap it from around the cutter. Remove the accessory box. Remove the lag screws that secure the machine to the skid. Cut shipping straps on the hydraulic reservoir and remove wood spacer from under reservoir.

The machine may then be removed from the skid. A fork-lift may be used if the forks will extend to the back of the machine base. Raise the machine enough to create a small clearance between the skid and machine. Make sure the forks engage the fork pockets found beneath the base. Remove the skid.

DO NOT place hands under machine at any time during skid removal. Place the machine on the ground and readjust placement of the forks for safe transport to its destination.

Alternately, the following method may be used to lift the machine from the skid. Remove the table extensions (page 11) and the lower front cover. Using lifting straps rated at 2000 lbs. or more, wrap the straps around the machine base from front to back on each side of the table as shown in Figure 2 & Figure 3. Hoist the machine and remove its skid.

IMPORTANT! Do not lift the machine by any portion of the table. The aluminum table may pull from the base and strip its mounting threads. Injury may result.

5.0 Installation & Setup

Power Hook-Up (208/230 50/60Hz)

For satisfactory operation, be sure that your cutter is wired for the correct phase and voltage and has adequate power. The correct electrical specifications for your machine are shown on the serial plate. Check the machine serial plate before connecting the power. For future reference, transfer this information to the front cover of this manual.

Watch Setup Voltage- Inadequate power to the cutter can be a major source of problems. Too many machines on the same circuit will reduce the power to each machine. Inadequate voltage will frequently cause overheating, loss of power, and in extreme cases, failure to operate. Test your voltage when the shop is at actual working levels. Challenge recommends a dedicated line with a lockable disconnect to provide adequate power for this machine.

CAUTION: SHOCK HAZARD! Always disconnect power at main power panel before working on the cutter. Lock it out to prevent accidental power up. (See Power Lockout Procedure page 5).

Important: You must have an adequate size circuit and heavy enough wiring for this machine. The circuit size should be a minimum of 20% greater than the amperage rating on the machine nameplate. If a wire is run over 75 feet (23 meters), the next size wire should be used. Check local electrical codes.

Electrical Specifications for the 208/230V Titan 265:

Volts 208/230V

Amps 25A

Phase 3 PH

Hz 60 Hz

Circuit Size 30A

Wire Size #10 AWG

Metric Wire 6mm sq.

IMPORTANT: There are two places that must be set for the proper incoming voltage. The first is the

terminal blocks found in the power panel. Check incoming voltage and position the Terminal Block Jumper for the proper voltage selection location as shown in Figure 12.

5.0 Installation & Setup

Power Hook-Up (380/400/415V 50Hz)

For satisfactory operation, be sure that your cutter is wired for the correct phase and voltage and has adequate power. The correct electrical specifications for your machine are shown on the serial plate. Check the machine serial plate before connecting the power. For future reference, transfer this information to the front cover of this manual.

Watch Setup Voltage- Inadequate power to the cutter can be a major source of problems. Too many machines on the same circuit will reduce the power to each machine. Inadequate voltage will frequently cause overheating, loss of power, and in extreme cases, failure to operate. Test your voltage when the shop is at actual working levels. Challenge recommends a dedicated line with a lockable disconnect to provide adequate power for this machine.

CAUTION: SHOCK HAZARD! Always disconnect power at main power panel before working on the cutter. Lock it out to prevent accidental power up. (See Power Lockout Procedure page 5).

Important: You must have an adequate size circuit and heavy enough wiring for this machine. The circuit size should be a minimum of 20% greater than the amperage rating on the machine nameplate. If a wire is run over 75 feet (23 meters), the next size wire should be used. Check local electrical codes.

5.0 Installation & Setup

Line Light

The Titan 265 is equipped with two lights, which provide a line of light on the paper in the approximate location of where the paper will be cut. The lights come on when power to the machine is turned on. The light from each bulb reaches the table after passing between the knife and clamp. Each light is focused with a socket head capscrew see Figure 17

Line Light Adj. Screws

To Adjust:

  1. Place a wide sheet of paper on the cut stick to view the line light.
  2. Using a 3/16” hex allen wrench, turn one of the cap screws until you see a 1/16-1/8” beam. NOTE: it is best to start by turning the screw clockwise. If the screw turns all the way in before a line appears, begin turning the screw counterclockwise.
  3. Similarly, turn the adjustment screw of the other bulb, until one continuous beam is seen across the cut stick.

SHOCK HAZARD! Always disconnect power at main power panel before working on the cutter. Lock it out to prevent accidental power up. See Power Lockout Procedure, page 5.

5.0 Installation & Setup

Bulb replacement:

  1. Make sure power is off (see Power Lockout Procedure, page 5).
  2. Remove the old bulb by lightly pushing the bulb into the socket and turning it 1/4 turn counterclockwise. CAUTION! If the bulb is still hot, allow a few minutes for it to cool.
  3. Insert the new bulb into the socket, push it in and twist it clockwise until the bulb locks into place.
  4. Reconnect power and turn the main power switch on. Readjust the line if necessary.

False Clamp Plate

To prevent marking on pressure sensitive jobs, a false clamp plate is included with your machine. This plate attaches to the bottom of the clamp. It is secured with (3) setscrews located in holes on the lower front face of the clamp.

To install:

  1. Make sure the knife and clamp are in the “up” position. If they are not, turn on the power using the red and yellow main power switch and follow the prompts on the screen to send the knife and clamp up.
  2. Place the false clamp plate into position on the bottom of the clamp, making sure the locator pins on the false clamp plate slide into the three holes on the bottom of the clamp.
  3. While holding the false clamp plate tight against the clamp, tighten the right most set screw located in the front face of the clamp (Figure 18). If the center set screw is accessible below the knife, tighten that screw as well.
  4. Place a pile of paper approximately 2” high on the table under the clamp. Then lower the clamp down to the paper using the low pressure clamping feature by pressing the foot pedal.
  5. Continue to hold the foot pedal down then tighten the remaining setscrews located in the lower front face of the clamp (Figure 18).
  6. Release the foot pedal to allow the clamp to return up.

NOTE: The minimum cut with the false clamp plate attached is 2” (51 mm). A sensor on the clamp detects if the false clamp plate is installed, and thus prevents the backgauge from being positioned less than 2” (51 mm).

7.0 Knife Installation/Changing

Changing knives can be very dangerous unless safety precautions are observed and extreme care is taken when handling knives.

Make sure knife lifters are properly installed, see instructions following. Keep handling of unprotected knives to an absolute minimum. Clear off cutter table before removing knife. Have scabbard on cutter table and insert knife immediately. Warn people of any unprotected knife. Knife changing is a ONE PERSON OPERATION. Having more than one person trying to change knives invites accidents.

Figure 20 – Knife Changing Equipment

The knife changing equipment shown in Figure 20 is included in the cutter tool kit. The following instructions show how to remove and install a new or re-sharpened knife. Read through these instructions AT LEAST ONCE before attempting to actually change or install any blades.

Knife Removal

  1. Make sure the knife and clamp are in the “up” position. If they are not, turn on the power using the red and yellow main power switch and follow the prompts on the screen to send the knife and clamp up.
  2. Turn the power off and lockout power to machine, see Power Lockout Procedure, page 5.

Page 24 of 111

Challenge Titan 265 TC 26.5" Hydraulic Programmable Paper Cutter User Manual, page 25
Text on page 25
  1. Back off the knife adjusting screws on top of the knife bar several turns (Figure 21). A new knife will cut deeper than one that has been ground several times. Failure to back off the screws could damage the knife and/or the cutting stick.
  2. Remove the knife bolts from the two slotted knife bar holes (Figure 21) and replace with the knife lifters (Figure 22). Tighten the lifters to hold the knife in place, and then remove the remaining knife bolts.
  3. Clear the table surfaces and place the empty knife scabbard on the table. Remove the scabbard’s knife retaining screws.
  4. Grasp the knife lifters firmly and, at the same time, turn them counterclockwise to release the knife from the knife bar. Lower the left end first, then lower the right end as you shift the knife sideways to the left. Bring the right end of the knife out from the machine. Shift the knife to the right and bring out the left end. Put the blade in the scabbard immediately and secure the knife retainer screws.

Knife Installation

Knives are heavy and always very sharp! Be sure to keep the edge away from your body and keep other people out of the area while handling the blade. Severe lacerations or dismemberment could result from careless handling procedures.

  1. Make sure the knife and clamp are in the “up” position. If they are not, turn on the power using the red and yellow main power switch and follow the prompts on the screen to send the knife and clamp up.

Text on page 26
  1. Turn the power off and lockout power to machine, see Power Lockout Procedure, page 5.
  2. Rotate or replace the cut stick (see Section 7.3.2 Cut Stick page 27).
  3. Remove the left retainer screw from the new blade and screw the knife lifter assembly into the new blade. Screw the lifters all the way in and then back them out a 3/4 turn).
  4. Remove the other scabbard retainer screw.
  5. Double check to make sure the knife adjusting screws have been backed out all the way (Figure 21, page 24). Guide the blade, left edge first, into the space between the knife bar guide frames on the left. Move the right end of the blade into the machine, under the knife bar slot. Align the lifters with the slots in the knife bar, raise the knife into the knife bar slot as high as it will go and tighten the lifters.

NOTE: If the blade will not go in, either the lifters are screwed into the blade too far, or the end of the blade is hitting the cylinder bracket at the right end of the knife slot. In this case, drop the left end when inserting the knife.

  1. Insert the knife bolts with washers and snug to hold the knife, but don’t tighten them yet.
  2. Remove the knife lifter assembly and replace with bolts and washers.
  3. Place a few sheets of paper over the cut stick, covering the stick end-to-end.
  4. Restore power to machine and turn power on.
  5. Go to the MAINTENANCE screen and choose KNIFE ADJUST. Choose KNIFE DOWN, then press and hold the cut buttons to send the knife to the down position.
  6. Turn the power off and lockout power to machine.
  7. Turn the knife adjusting screws (Figure 23) down evenly, a little at a time, until the knife cuts through the bottom sheet of paper the entire length of the cutting stick. Turning the screws down evenly prevents uneven wear on the knife and cutting stick.
  8. Restore power to machine and turn power on.
  9. Follow the prompts on the screen to send the knife and clamp up.

  1. Turn the power off and lockout power to machine.
  2. Tighten all knife bolts securely.
  3. Restore power to machine and turn power on. Make a test cut through a full lift of paper and make minor adjustments if necessary by repeating steps 9 through 17. NOTE: If the knife ends cut but the middle doesn’t, you could have dips or uneven spots in the knife and/or cutting stick. These can be eliminated by placing 1/2” strips of paper in the table slot beneath the cutting stick to shim it.
  4. Send the dull knife to a knife grinder. Do not attempt to sharpen your own knives! See the Knife Care Tips Section below to determine the knife bevel angle.

Knife Care Tips

! KNIFE SAFETY ! Knives are DANGEROUS!!! They are heavy and very sharp, even after use. Keep the edge away from your body and keep the area clear of others when handling knives. Never touch the cutting edge! To prevent personal injury and damage to the knife, always keep knives in their holders with screws tightened. You are aware of the dangers, but others may not be. Never attempt to hone, polish, or service the knife in any way. Failure to follow safety procedures may result in severe lacerations or dismemberment.

7.3.1 Knife Blade Life

Knife blade life, or the time between sharpenings, can be affected by many factors. One important factor is the type of paper being cut. Abrasive paper, such as recycled paper, soft paper such as newsprint paper, and bound books can all significantly shorten knife blade life. Also, if the knife depth is set too deep, the knife will cut too deep into the cutting stick and can dull the knife blade.

A knife can last between 2,000 and 5,000 cuts before it needs to be sharpened. Cutting soft paper (such as newsprint paper) or paper with high post-consumer recycled content can cause the knife to need sharpening after only 2,000 to 3,000 cuts. Cutting pure paper, such as bond paper with no recycled content, or hard paper can allow the knife to be used for as many as 5,000 cuts before it needs to be sharpened. In all cases, the operator should continually check the quality of the cut to determine when the knife blade needs to be sharpened. Some characteristics that indicate a blade needs sharpening are:

The knife hesitates or stalls while making a cut.

The sheets are not all cut to the same length (usually the top few sheets are longer than the rest of the sheets - this is sometimes called “draw”).

Cut marks appear on the cut face of the paper.

The profile of the cut (side view) is not perpendicular to the table.

The cut does not appear straight when viewed from the top.

The knife makes a “rougher” sound as it passes through paper.

Nicks are visible on the cutting edge of the knife.

Page 27 of 111

Challenge Titan 265 TC 26.5" Hydraulic Programmable Paper Cutter User Manual, page 28
Text on page 28

The cut stick should be changed or rotated at every knife change. It may require changing more often if deep grooves or jagged edges can be seen along the score marks. A worn cut stick can negatively affect cut quality.

Procedure to change or rotate cut stick

  1. Turn the power off and lockout power to machine, see Power Lockout Procedure, page 5.
  2. Locate the Cut Stick Puller provided with the machine. The cut stick puller has a finger hold and hook (Figure 24).
  3. Hook the Cut Stick Puller over the right end of the cut stick with a finger in the loop of the puller. With the Cut Stick Puller at a slight angle over the cut stick lift the puller straight up until the end of the cut stick comes out of the table. Remove the remainder of the cut stick from the table by hand.
  4. Inspect the cut stick for wear. It may be used a total of 8 times (twice on each surface) before replacing. To use a surface twice, reinstall the cut stick by turning it such that the end that came out of the right end of the slot goes into the left end of the slot. If a surface has been used twice, rotate the stick to an unused surface (Figure 25). If all (4) surfaces have been used twice, replace the stick with a new one. New cut sticks can be purchased from your authorized Challenge dealer.
  5. Firmly press the new or rotated cut stick all the way down into the slot. The top of the cut stick should be flush with the table. If the cut stick is not level or flush with the table, place 1/2” wide strips of paper in the table slot under the cut stick to raise it slightly.

Challenge recommends that bevel angles for the Titan 265 knives be in the range of 21° to 23°. In general, a 21° bevel angle will provide better cut quality when cutting soft paper (such as newsprint), recycled paper, or bound books. However, 21° angle knives can become dull sooner than 23° knives, which results in shorter knife blade life. A knife with a 23° bevel angle, on the other hand, will not dull as easily, and can provide satisfactory results when cutting most types of paper. Knives shipped with the Titan 265 from the factory have a bevel angle of 23°.

Page 28 of 111

Challenge Titan 265 TC 26.5" Hydraulic Programmable Paper Cutter User Manual, page 29
Text on page 29

If your establishment is large enough to purchase more than one set of knives, have one set beveled at 21° and the other at 23°. Note: A set consists of 3 knives: one in the machine, one as a back up, and one at the grinder.

If the machine seems to strain but the cut quality is still good, reduce the pile height. You may also carefully apply glycerin to the bevel when cutting hard, coated paper. Tie a cloth to the end of a stick; dip the stick in glycerin, and apply. Never apply by hand! In lieu of glycerin you may lightly rub white bar soap along the bevel. Lubrication will prolong the life of your machine and reduce maintenance.

To prevent corrosion, knives are coated with light oil. It should be REMOVED WITH CARE.

While removing or installing a knife, be careful not to allow the edge to bump against the machine. Nicks will result.

If a knife bolt is damaged, replace it.

Always keep knife bolts securely tightened.

Always use the heavy-duty knife bolt washers provided by Challenge. Failure to do so could result in scratching or marring of the clamp face.

Store knives in a dry environment to prevent corrosion.

Never attempt to service a knife in any way.

8.0 Cleaning

Before cleaning inside machine turn off and lockout power, page 5.

Hydraulics

  1. The vent fans should be wiped off weekly to maintain maximum cooling of the hydraulic system.
  2. The hydraulic manifold, fittings, and hoses should be wiped off weekly to maintain maximum cooling. Remove then replace panels as necessary.

Table

  1. The front table should be wiped down periodically. Use a non-abrasive cleaner along with a protective wax.
  2. The rear table cover may be cleaned with glass cleaner or a mild water based detergent. Some petroleum-based solvents may damage the Plexiglas.

Console

  1. The console should be cleaned with a mild water based detergent applied to a damp cloth or paper towel. Petroleum based solvents will damage the console.

Machine Exterior

  1. The machine’s exterior should be cleaned with a non-abrasive water based detergent applied to a damp cloth.

9.0 Lubrication

A clean, lubricated machine will cut more accurately, run longer, with less downtime, and fewer repairs.

Schedule lubrication maintenance both early in the day and early in the week. This allows the lubricants to work into the machine. Lubrication at the end of the day or week allows the lubricants to run off without any benefit to the machine.

Clean off dirty, excess grease. Clean accumulated dust off valves, hoses, and connections. Dust build-up increases operating temperatures and causes premature wear of all hydraulic components.

Oil and grease WEEKLY as described below.

When necessary, send the knife down by choosing “MAINTENANCE” and then “KNIFE CHANGE” on the TC touch screen. Select “Knife Adjust Mode” then press and hold both cut buttons until the knife and clamp reach the table. Now release the buttons (the knife and clamp should stay down).

DISCONNECT THE POWER AND LOCK IT OUT, (See Power Lockout Procedure on pg. 5).

Most moving parts require lubrication. Remove all panel covers and look for all oil locations (marked with red paint). Make sure oil holes are not plugged and lubricate with a 30 weight oil. See the photos below for critical locations (not all locations are illustrated here). Notice that some are oil locations and some are grease points. Wipe off old and excess grease. Use a National Lubricating Grease Institute No. 2 consistency, extreme pressure grease.

Replace all guards before operating. Never operate cutter with any

10.0 Hydraulic System

The Titan 265 Cutter has both hydraulic cutting and hydraulic clamping operation. The cutter is powered by an electric motor coupled directly to a hydraulic pump. The clamp action is powered by a hydraulic cylinder. When the cut buttons are depressed, this cylinder moves the clamp down (or brings the clamp up to full hydraulic pressure if the manual foot clamp is down). The cutting action is also powered by a hydraulic cylinder that moves the knife bar down. The knife sequence valve generates 1,200 PSI of back pressure throughout the system to maintain full clamp pressure during the cut. One advantage of the hydraulics is the immediate return of the knife when the cut buttons are released.

Check the level of the hydraulic reservoir WEEKLY or whenever the machine sounds like it is laboring (this could be due to low oil level). To check, remove the lower rear cover and look at the sight gauge on the rear side of the hydraulic tank (Figure 29).

Sight Gauge

Fluid should just be visible in the sight gauge. Add fluid if necessary, but avoid overfilling. Use only the recommended fluid type as described in Section 10.1 below. Replace the panel.

The hydraulic tank, fan, manifold, and fittings should be wiped off WEEKLY to maintain maximum cooling of the tank/hydraulic oil.

The hydraulic fluid should be changed YEARLY or EVERY 1,000 HOURS of operation.

The oil filter (Challenge part H-227-1) should be changed YEARLY or whenever any repairs are made to the hydraulic system.

NOTE: Failure to change the oil and filter when needed can damage the seals in the clamp and knife cylinders.

Recommended Hydraulic Oil

Use only ISO (International Standards Organization) Viscosity Grade 46, rust, oxidation, and foam inhibiting, non-detergent hydraulic oil. Oils other than the recommended type will cause seals, cups, and O-rings to deteriorate. The proper hydraulic oil can be purchased in 5 gallon containers from your authorized Challenge Dealer using the Challenge part number: S-1991-3.

NEVER USE Automatic transmission oil or brake fluid as a substitute! Oils other than the recommended type will cause seals, cups, and O-rings to deteriorate. Unsafe operations conditions will result.

Page 35 of 111

Challenge Titan 265 TC 26.5" Hydraulic Programmable Paper Cutter User Manual, page 36
Text on page 36

Changing the Hydraulic Oil

The oil and filter should be changed AT LEAST ONCE-A-YEAR or after every 1,000 hours of operation.

The oil filter (Challenge part H-227-1) should be changed YEARLY or whenever any repairs are made to the hydraulic system.

NOTE: Failure to change oil and filter when needed can damage seals in the cylinders, pump, and valves.

Only change oil when it is cold. Burns could result from changing hot oil.

Before beginning, you will need an empty five gallon bucket, three oil pans or more, a funnel and an assistant. If oil is hot, wait until it cools.

  1. Make sure main power switch is off and disconnect power to the machine and lock it out.
  2. Remove the lower rear cover
  3. Unscrew and remove the breather cap from the top of the tank (Figure 30).

Sight Gauge

Breather Cap

  1. Using a hand drill and transfer pump commonly found at hardware and home improvement stores, transfer the used oil to empty container.
  2. Replace the oil filter. Place a thin film of new hydraulic oil on the seal of the new filter to insure a proper seal. Firmly hand-tighten the filter onto the filter head.
  3. Using the transfer pump, fill the tank with 5 gallons of the recommended fluid (See Section 10.1 above). Make sure the level is just above the sight gauge shown in Figure 30.
  4. Re-install the breather cap.
  5. Before turning on the machine, make sure all hydraulic hose fittings are tight.
  6. Turn on main power to the machine. Make several a cut cycles and inspect the hydraulic system for leaks. If leaks are found, turn off main power to the machine and tighten any leaking fittings.

Hydraulic Valve Adjustments

Several of the following tests require the machine to be operational for checking and adjusting. Be very careful that tools and other people are clear of moving parts and that the cutter is not accidentally operated while adjustments are being made. Disconnect the power and lock it out, (see Safety Precautions, page 5) whenever working on the machine unless the directions specifically require the machine to be powered.

NOTE: Pressure settings fluctuate with oil temperature. Set pressures when the oil is hot.

Pressure Settings:

Main System Relief Pressure — 2,000 psi. Knife Down Sequence Pressure — 1,200 psi. Clamp/Knife up Sequence Pressure — Visual. Clamp Pressure — 400-900 psi.

Notes:

  • To access hydraulic gauges and valves, remove the lower front cover panel.

To adjust valves, loosen hex jam nut, then make adjustments by turning the adjusting screw with a hex allen wrench.

On all valves, turning in (clockwise) increases pressure; out (counter-clockwise) decreases pressure. Clamp Pressure Gauge

Text on page 38

1. MAIN SYSTEM RELIEF PRESSURE: Use the “Knife Change” feature found in the Maintenance pull-down menu to send the knife and clamp down. Read the pressure on the main system gauge when the knife is bottomed on the table. Adjust the main system relief valve (Figure 31) to obtain a reading of 2,000 psi. It may be necessary to send the knife down several times.

2. KNIFE DOWN SEQUENCE PRESSURE: Begin a cut cycle and read the knife sequence pressure from the main system gauge as the knife is traveling down (after the clamp reaches the table). The pressure should read 1,200 psi. If necessary, adjust the knife sequence valve (Figure 32) to obtain the proper reading.

2. Knife Sequence Valve

3. CLAMP UP SEQUENCE PRESSURE: Activate a cut cycle and visually inspect the motion of the knife and clamp. The clamp should not lift off the table until the knife is all the way up. If it does, increase the sequence pressure by adjusting the clamp up sequence valve (Figure 31).

4. ELECTRONIC CLAMP PRESSURE SETTING: The electronic clamping control allows the convenience of changing the clamp pressure at the control console, as well as the ability to program different clamp pressure settings within programmed jobs. The clamp pressure is controlled by use of a slide bar on the TC touch screen located at the lower left corner of the screen. A number between 0 and 15 will be displayed, indicating the current pressure setting (0 being the lowest, 15 the highest). To adjust the actual clamp pressures at the minimum (0) and maximum (15) settings, follow the procedure below:

On the TC touch screen, select the Maintenance pull-down menu then choose Setup. Then select the Service Info tab, and in the box for Enable Tabs Code, enter 6125. Now select the Hydraulic Settings tab. The screen should look similar to Figure 33:

Page 38 of 111

Challenge Titan 265 TC 26.5" Hydraulic Programmable Paper Cutter User Manual, page 39
Text on page 39

To set the maximum clamp pressure, first make sure the correct slide bar is “active” by touching the appropriate slider button. Now press both cut buttons, and after the clamp has contacted the table and while the knife bar is coming down, read the pressure on the right hand pressure gauge. It should be set at 900 psi. If not, adjust the maximum clamp pressure slider button higher or lower and re-check the clamp pressure reading on the gauge. Repeat until the pressure is properly set at 900 psi.

To set the minimum pressure, first make sure the correct slide bar is “active” by touching the appropriate slider button. Now press both cut buttons, and after the clamp has contacted the table and while the knife bar is coming down, read the pressure on the right hand pressure gauge. It should be set at 400 psi. If not, adjust the minimum clamp pressure slider button higher or lower and re-check the clamp pressure reading on the gauge. Repeat until the pressure is properly set at 400 psi.

To adjust the directional valve shift delay, first make sure the correct slide bar is “active” by touching the appropriate slider button. Move the slider button all the way to the right. Now make a complete cut cycle by pressing and holding the cut buttons throughout the entire cycle. Watch the motion of the knife bar. When the knife bar reaches the bottom of its stroke, you should notice a delay before the knife bar begins its upward motion. Decrease this delay by moving the slider button slightly to the left. Continue making cuts and checking the delay each time you move the slider button. Stop moving the slider button once the delay is mostly eliminated. If you go too far to the left, you will hear an unusual “clunk” sound when the knife begins its upward motion. If this happens, you will need to move the slider bar back to the right until the clunk sound has disappeared.

To adjust the knife cushion value, first make sure the correct slide bar is “active” by touching the appropriate slider button. The knife cushion can be described as a slight slowing down of the knife bar at the top of its stroke – thus providing a “cushion” effect. To increase the amount of cushion, move the slider button to the right. To decrease the amount of cushion, move the slider button to the left.

When finished, press Save and Exit.

11.0 Adjustments

Several of the following tests require the machine to be operational for checking and adjusting. Be very careful that tools and other people are clear of moving parts and that the cutter is not accidentally operated while adjustments are being made. Whenever working on the machine, disconnect the power and lock it out (see SAFETY PRECAUTIONS, page 5) unless the directions specifically require the machine to be powered.

Electric Eye Alignment

If the electric eyes are not in alignment, or if they become out of alignment during a cut cycle due to vibration, the machine will see them as blocked and will cease any downward motion.

To check if the electric eyes are aligned properly, turn on the power switch and look at the indicator light pattern on the receiver (left hand unit). If the eyes are functioning properly and aligned properly, and if there are no obstructions, the light pattern will look like the one shown in Figure 34 below.

Status (Green = OK) (Red = Problem)

Zone Indicators (Green = Clear/Aligned) (Red = Blocked/Misaligned)

Figure 34 – Electric Eye Indicator Lights

To simulate the vibration caused by a normal cut cycle, gently tap on the electric eye housings one at a time with your hand. Watch the indicator lights to see if any of them change.

If the status light or any of the zone indicator lights are red, this indicates an obstruction. However if there are no physical obstructions blocking the eye beams, then most likely the electric eyes are out of alignment. To adjust:

  1. Remove the inner housing covers from both eye housings.
  2. Loosen the outer mounting screws (Figure 35) to adjust the eye beam units until they are aligned over their length.

Text on page 41

Outer Mounting Screws

Inner Mounting Screws

  1. Loosen the inner mounting screws (Figure 35) to rotate the beams until they are aligned over their width. When the indicator lights indicate proper alignment as shown in Figure 34, tighten all screws.
  2. Replace the inner housing covers and re-check the alignment as indicated above.

Backgauge Gib Adjustment

If the backgauge does not stay squared or jumps up and down when jogging paper against it, the backgauge gib screws are probably loose or worn.

To Adjust:

  1. Send the backgauge near the rear of the table.
  2. Turn off the power and lock it out, page 5.
  3. Remove the leadscrew cover under the table.
  4. Loosen the side gib setscrews and the bottom guide screws (Figure 36).

Guide Screws

Page 41 of 111

Challenge Titan 265 TC 26.5" Hydraulic Programmable Paper Cutter User Manual, page 42
Text on page 42
  1. Tighten the bottom guide screws until they touch the guide then back off 1/8 turn. Do not over-tighten or they could cause the backgauge to bind.
  2. Turn the side gib screws in until they just touch the guide. The backgauge should not be able to rock side to side. Lock in position with the jam nuts.
  3. Run the backgauge back and forth the length of the table using the backgauge control. Check for any binding. Readjust if necessary.

NOTE: The screws should be tightened to hold the backgauge square against the guide rail. Excessive tightening will cause the backgauge to bind and cause premature wear of all components.

Squaring the Backgauge

PAPER

PAPER

To test the backgauge for squareness, place a small lift of paper against the left side of the backgauge (but not against the side guide) and make a cut.

Now, leave the backgauge in the same position, flip the lift over and against the right side of the backgauge (but not against the side guide). Make another cut to see if any of the stock will trim off. Run two checks, one starting on the left and moving to the right, the other, moving from the right to the left. Trim in either sequence indicates the backgauge is out of square.

  1. Make sure the backgauge gibs are set properly (see previous section). Then follow steps 2 through 5.

NOTE: Backgauge gib adjustment is not necessary on initial machine setup as gibs have been adjusted at the factory.

  1. Loosen the jam nuts on the backgauge adjusting screws (Figure 38).

Adjusting Screws with Jam Nuts

Page 42 of 111

Challenge Titan 265 TC 26.5" Hydraulic Programmable Paper Cutter User Manual, page 43
Text on page 43
  1. Back off the adjusting screw on the side that the trim occurred and tighten the other.
  2. With the squaring screws tight, make another test. Continue to adjust and test until no trim occurs when testing in either sequence.
  3. Tighten the jam nuts and lock screw.
  4. Replace rear table cover.

NOTE: Once the backgauge is square, restore power to the machine and check the backgauge accuracy to make sure it is accurate (see next section).

Backgauge Position Accuracy Adjustment

If the backgauge position readout does not match the actual measurement between the knife and the backgauge, the cutter must be re-calibrated.

The accuracy can be checked by comparing cut sheets of paper. This process is described below.

NOTE: The backgauge gibs should be adjusted and the backgauge squared before attempting to adjust accuracy.

  1. Place a 1/4 to 1/2 inch (5 to 13mm) pile of 8-1/2 X 11 (A4) paper against the center of the backgauge.
  2. Trim cut lengthwise and rotate 180 0 . Using the backgauge position readout, bring the paper up to the 10" (254mm) position and make a cut. Move the backgauge up to 5" (127mm) and make another cut.
  3. Take several sheets from the center of each lift and compare them to each other. The encoder system on your cutter will space accurately between your 10” (254mm) and 5" (127mm) cuts, whether the overall accuracy is correct or not. The stack of paper between the 10” (254mm) and 5" (127mm) cuts will be a true 5", but the paper left against the backgauge will not- if the backgauge position readout is off.
  4. If the backgauge position readout is off, you will have to adjust the accuracy. On the TC touch screen console, select Maintenance, then Setup. Then select the Service Info tab and in the box for Enable Tabs Code, enter 6125. Now select the Accuracy Adjust tab and follow the instructions on the screen. You will be asked to cut a sample pile, measure it, and then key in the actual measured value. Press Save and Exit when finished.
  5. Run the backgauge back several inches, then bring it forward through the 3.750" (95 mm) preset dimension, then repeat steps 1-3 again.

Clamp Height and Level Adjustment

The clamp height and level need not be adjusted on a new machine setup. If the bottom edge of the clamp does not measure 4” without false clamp plate (3-3/4” with false clamp plate) from the table surface on each end of the clamp, then it should be adjusted for optimal cutting performance.

Clamp Height Adjustment Procedure:

  1. Make sure clamp and knife are in the up position. Turn the machine off and lock out power, page 5.

Page 43 of 111

Challenge Titan 265 TC 26.5" Hydraulic Programmable Paper Cutter User Manual, page 44
Text on page 44
  1. Remove the bottom front cover and the top rear cover.
  2. Loosen one end of the rack & pinion shaft coupling from the rear of the machine (Figure 39).
  3. Loosen the bottom nut at the bottom end of each clamp pull down tie rod (Figure 40).
  4. Adjust the top nut at the bottom end of each clamp pull down tie rod until a 4” (3-3/4” if false clamp plate installed) height is measured at each end of the clamp.
  5. Tighten each bottom nut at the bottom end of pull down rods.
  6. Tighten the rack & pinion shaft coupling.
  7. Recheck the clamp height in case tightening the linkage moved it out of adjustment. If the clamp has moved out of adjustment, repeat steps 3 through 7 as necessary.

Page 44 of 111

Challenge Titan 265 TC 26.5" Hydraulic Programmable Paper Cutter User Manual, page 45
Text on page 45
  1. Once a satisfactory setting has been obtained, replace all covers and unlock the power source.

Clamp Leveling Procedure:

Remove the knife, false clamp plate and the cut stick. Place a 2” wide strip of paper under the left and right hand side of the clamp. Access the Knife Adjust menu in the “Maintenance Section” and cycle the clamp and knife to the down position. Pull on the paper strips; if one pulls out, that side will have to be adjusted. NOTE: Keep the adjustments small so the clamp will remain at 4”

  1. Turn the machine off and lock out power, page 5.
  2. Remove the bottom front cover and the top rear cover.
  3. Loosen one end of the rack and pinion shaft coupling (Figure 39).
  4. Loosen the clamp rod bottom nut on the side of the clamp that doesn’t hold paper.
  5. Adjust the top clamp rod nut until the paper is held tight.
  6. Tighten the bottom nut, then recheck the paper. Readjust if necessary.
  7. Tighten the rack and pinion shaft coupling.

Pre-Clamp Pressure Adjustment

The pre-clamp feature of the Titan 265 uses low-pressure pneumatics to bring the clamp down prior to making a cut. The system pressure is set at the factory and allows for safe and proper operation of the clamp. It should not be necessary to adjust unless the clamp does not come down all the way to the table after pressing the foot pedal. If this is the case follow these instructions to adjust:

  1. Remove lower front cover and locate the pneumatic pressure adjustment knob (Figure 41).

Adjustment Knob

  1. Loosen jam nut.

Page 45 of 111

Challenge Titan 265 TC 26.5" Hydraulic Programmable Paper Cutter User Manual, page 46
Text on page 46
  1. Increase the pressure by turning the valve clockwise until the clamp is able to travel down to the table completely when pressing the foot pedal switch.
  2. Check to make sure the force under the clamp does not exceed 66 lbs (30 kg). A scale, such as a bathroom scale, should be used to measure this. If the force exceeds 66 lbs (30 kg), decrease the pressure by turning the valve clockwise until the force is below 66 lbs (30 kg).
  3. Tighten the jam nut on the pressure control valve.

Knife Latch Adjustment

The knife latch prevents the knife edge from drifting down while the machine is not in operation. The knife latch height must be set properly in order for the machine to function properly and to prevent the knife blade edge from becoming exposed.

Failure to adjust the knife latch properly could result in the knife blade edge being exposed at times other than normal operation. Serious injury could result.

Follow these instructions to adjust:

  1. Make sure the knife is all the way up and has not drifted down by performing a cut cycle.
  2. Turn the machine off and lock out power, see page 5.
  3. Remove the upper rear cover of the machine and locate the knife latch assembly.
  4. Check the gap as shown in Figure 42. The gap should be .030” (.8 mm) to .060” (1.5 mm).

Figure 42 – Knife Latch

  1. If the gap is out of range, adjust the knife latch height by loosening the mounting screws (Figure 42) and move the knife latch assembly up or down until the gap is in the correct range of .030” (.8 mm) to .060” (1.5 mm).
  2. Tighten the mounting screws.

Page 46 of 111

Challenge Titan 265 TC 26.5" Hydraulic Programmable Paper Cutter User Manual, page 47
Text on page 47
  1. Restore power to the machine and perform a cut cycle. Recheck the gap to make sure it is still within the correct range.
  2. Also make sure that the distance between the knife blade edge and the bottom surface of the clamp is greater than the knife latch gap. This ensures that if the knife were to drift down and hang on the knife latch, the knife blade edge will not be exposed.
  3. Re-attach upper rear cover.

Proximity Switches – Knife and Clamp

Proximity switches are used to inform the computer of the up and down positions of the knife and clamp. They do not determine the stopping positions of the knife and clamp, and therefore rarely need to be adjusted. However, if a proximity switch is not sensing the knife or clamp position correctly, it may need adjustment.

11.8.1 Knife Down Proximity Switch

Make sure the clamp and knife are in the up position. Turn the power switch off and lock out power, page 5. Open the top hood.

Adjust the knife down proximity switch (Figure 43) by loosening the two mounting screws and sliding the switch closer to the knife bar. The gap between the proximity switch and the knife bar should be 1/32” – 1/16” (0.5mm – 1.5mm). Turn the power back on and send the knife down using the “Knife Change” feature found in the Maintenance pull-down menu. The light on the proximity switch should be off. If not, adjust the switch up until the light goes out.

11.8.2 Clamp Up Proximity Switch

Make sure the clamp and knife are in the up position. Turn the power switch off and lock out power, page 5. Open the top hood and the upper rear cover.

Adjust the clamp up proximity switch (Figure 44) by loosening the two proximity bracket mounting screws and slide it up or down. The gap between the actuator and the proximity switch should be 1/32” – 1/16” (0.5mm – 1.5mm).

11.8.3 Knife Up Proximity Switch

Send the knife down using the “Knife Change” feature found in the Maintenance pull-down menu. Turn the power switch off and lockout power, page 5. Open the top hood.

Adjust the knife up proximity switch (Figure 45) by loosening the two mounting screws and sliding the switch closer to the knife bar. The gap between the switch and the knife bar should be 1/32” - 1/16” (0.5mm - 1.5mm). Turn the power back on and when the knife is in it’s full up position the proximity should not be on. If it is, lower the switch until it goes off.

11.8.4 Hydraulic Clamp Up Proximity Switch

Make sure the clamp and knife are in the up position. Turn the power switch off and lockout power, page 5. Remove the lower front panel.

Adjust the hydraulic clamp up proximity switch (Figure 46) by loosening the two mounting bracket screws and sliding the bracket up or down. The gap between the switch and the actuator plate should be 1/32” to 1/16” (0.5 to 1.5 mm). The knife may need to be run down several times to make this adjustment.

Electrical Sequence of Operation

NOTE: Please see the section on Hydraulic Sequence of Operation for more details.

Electrical Sequence of Operation

Electrical Schematic References: Section 13.15 page 76

  1. Turn Main Disconnect switch to “on” position.

If fuses F4 and F7 or CB4 and CB7 are conductive, power is brought to the main control board. The line lights will illuminate. Power is also brought to the circuit board. Fuse PCF1 and PCF3 are located on the main control board in the power panel. If fuse PCF3 is conductive, power will be supplied to the logic on the board. If the logic is functioning, the operator’s console display will function. If fuse PCF1 and PCF5 are conductive, power will be supplied for backgauge movement.

  1. Press PRESET on the screen to direct the backgauge forward through the presetter.

To coordinate the console display with the actual backgauge position, the backgauge must be brought forward through the presetter. When the backgauge position reaches approximately 3.75 inches, the presetter, located beneath the table, is actuated. The display will then count up and down from this point as signals are received from the incremental encoder. For general backgauge information see C below.

  1. Backgauge control via front hand knob.

The backgauge control knob on the front of the table is used to manually control the backgauge position. The speed of the backgauge motor will depend upon how far the knob is turned.

  1. Make a cut by pressing the cut buttons.

When the CUT buttons are pressed, the hydraulic motor relay (PUMP RELAY) will energize, and power will be brought to the hydraulic motor. The KNIFE LATCH solenoid will energize and the knife latch will pull in. CUT solenoid A, B, and unload valve will energize, and the machine will make a cut. When the knife reaches the down position, the KNIFE DOWN prox (IN 9) will open, which after a slight time delay, causes the logic to de-energize the CUT solenoids, bringing the knife and clamp to the up position. When the clamp reaches the up position, the HYD UP prox. (IN 3) will close, which causes the logic to de-energize the unload valve. The hydraulic motor will stop after a preset idle time.

Hydraulic Sequence of Operation

NOTE: Please see the section on electrical sequence of operation for more details.

Hydraulic Sequence of Operation

Hydraulic Schematic References: Section 13.24 page 89

  1. Dump solenoid de-energized (open) while outside cut cycle. (Motor and pump run continuously.)

The hydraulic motor drives the pump continuously. When the cut cycle is initiated, the dump solenoid energizes (closes), and the knife latch is retracted.

  1. Energize two CUT solenoids. (Knife and Clamp are sent down.)

When the CUT solenoids are energized, oil will flow freely to the knife down (KD) cylinder port and through the pressure reducing valve to the clamp down cylinder port (CD). Both CUT solenoids must energize to continue the sequence. Since oil is restricted by the knife sequence valve and blocked by a check valve, the knife will stay up, and the clamp will start down. When the clamp stops downward motion, the system pressure will rise. Pressure in the clamp down line will level off to the setting of the pressure reducing valve. The system pressure will continue to rise until the knife sequence pressure valve opens allowing the knife to come down. The knife will continue down until the cylinder reaches the extreme of its travel. System pressure will increase until the main system relief valve trips. At this time, the electronics will sense that the knife is down, and de-energize the CUT solenoids.

  1. De-energize two CUT solenoids. (Knife and Clamp are sent up.)

With the CUT solenoids de-energized, oil flow is directed to the knife up cylinder port (KU) and the clamp up cylinder port (CU). Since the clamp down port (CD) is blocked by a check valve and the clamp up sequence valve the clamp will stay down while the knife goes up. When the knife reaches the up extreme, system pressure builds until the clamp up sequence valve opens and allows the clamp to move up. System pressure will increase until the main system relief valve trips. At this time, the electronics will sense that the knife and clamp are up and de-energize the dump solenoid sending oil flow back to the tank. The knife latch is engaged.

14.0 Safety Systems Test

CHALLENGE

TITAN 265

Frequency of test: THESE TESTS SHOULD BE PERFORMED AT THE BEGINNING OF EACH WORK DAY.

Turn the power on and preset the backgauge. Make sure the knife and clamp are in the “up” position (if they are not, follow the prompts on the screen at power–up to send them up).

Test #1: Wave a test object 12mm in diameter between the electric eye beams. The indicator lights should indicate the eyes are blocked. If they do not, do not use the machine. Repair or adjustment is needed.

Test #2: While making a cut, lean into the electric eye beams. The knife and clamp should immediately return to the up position. If they do not, do not use the machine. Repair or adjustment is needed.

Quick start

  1. Inspect the shipment right away and report any damage to the carrier within 15 days; check contents against the packing list.
  2. The machine weighs about 1780 lbs (807 kg). Remove the carton, accessory box and the lag screws holding it to the skid, and cut the shipping straps on the hydraulic reservoir.
  3. Lift it off the skid with a fork-lift using the fork pockets under the base, or with lifting straps rated at 2000 lbs or more wrapped around the base.
  4. Never lift the machine by the table; the aluminum table can pull from the base.

Troubleshooting

ProblemLikely causeFix (from the manual)
No power / machine fails to turn onBlown fuse or tripped circuit breaker, power disconnected, or main power switch not turned on.Check fuses and breakers, confirm power is connected, and turn on the main power switch. Page 51
Backgauge display inaccuratePreset circuit board, encoder, or main circuit board malfunction.Have the preset board, encoder and main circuit board checked by a qualified technician. Page 51
Backgauge display inaccurate by a constant amountBackgauge needs accuracy adjustment, or presetter malfunction.Run the Backgauge Position Accuracy Adjustment from the TC console (Maintenance > Setup > Accuracy Adjust tab). See page 43. Page 51
Cut buttons pushed but machine won't cutElectric eyes misaligned, blocked or defective; low hydraulic fluid; relief valve or sequence pressure set wrong; defective cut button, motor relay, knife latch solenoid, knife down coil or directional valve; cylinder disconnected; dirty or dry knife bar; dirt in the hydraulic system.Check that the electric eyes are clear and aligned, check hydraulic fluid level, and lubricate the knife guideways. Other causes require a qualified technician. Page 51
Clamp starts up before knife is upClamp Up Sequence Valve setting incorrect or defective.Have the clamp up sequence valve adjusted or replaced. Page 51
Concave cutting: ends wide, center narrowExcessive moisture at the edges of the paper.Address moisture in the stock before cutting. Page 51
Concave cutting: variation from top to bottomSoft paper not firmly clamped, or knife dull or incorrectly ground.Clamp soft paper firmly and check the knife for sharpness and correct grind. Page 51
Erratic operation / power lossLow hydraulic fluid, dirt in the hydraulic system, oil bypassing the cylinder piston, low supply voltage, or main relief valve not set properly or defective.Check hydraulic fluid level and supply voltage; have the hydraulic system and relief valve inspected. Page 51

Frequently asked questions

How do I check and calibrate backgauge accuracy on the Titan 265 TC?

Cut a 1/4 to 1/2" pile of 8-1/2 x 11 paper at 10" and then 5" and compare the sheets. If the readout is off, go to Maintenance > Setup, enter code 6125 under Enable Tabs Code on the Service Info tab, then follow the Accuracy Adjust tab instructions. See page 43.

How much does the Titan 265 weigh?

Approximately 1780 lbs (807 kg). Use a fork-lift or lifting straps rated at 2000 lbs or more to remove it from the skid. See page 11.

What should the clamp height be?

The bottom edge of the clamp should measure 4" from the table without the false clamp plate (3-3/4" with it) at each end. A new machine does not need adjusting. See page 43.

Should the backgauge be squared before adjusting accuracy?

Yes. Adjust the backgauge gibs and square the backgauge before calibrating accuracy. See page 43.
