TABLE
Table Extension Your folder comes with two Table Extensions. One is used as an extension on the Exit Conveyor, the other on the Feed Table (see illustration at right).
To install the Extension onto the Feed Table, align the locking tabs of the Extension with the slots in the Feed Table as shown. Squeeze the Feed Table and Extension together nearest the tabs and slots until the 2 pieces snap together.
Setting a Paper Size To change paper sizes, press the "SIZE SELECT" button located on the operator interface. You must specify the paper size that you intend to fold prior to running the folder.
Setting the Paper Guides If your paper size is different than the factory set paper size, adjust the Paper Guides to the desired size. To adjust the paper guides, loosen the thumb knobs of the Paper Guides located under the Feed Table. Move the Paper Guides to the desired location, and then retighten the thumb knobs. Do not over-tighten the thumb knobs!
Setting a Fold Type To change the fold type, press the "FOLD SELECT" button located on the folder keypad. Once you have selected a fold type, the folder will wait for 8 seconds for any additional settings that you may want to set, such as a quantity of folds to run.
Running a Test Fold Pressing the TEST button once will feed and fold one sheet of paper and then stop.

Fold Skew Adjustment Rotate the Skew Adjustment Knob until the desired amount of skew adjustment has been made. This is best done with the folder running but can be done while stopped.
Skew Adjustment Knob
Ready to Fold Pressing the RUN button will initiate folding. Folding will continue until one of the follow conditions is met: 1.) the Stop button is pressed, 2.) the Feed Table becomes empty of paper, 3.) a folding error is encountered, or 4.) the programmed quantity reaches 0 (zero).
Stopping the Folder If the folder is running, pressing the STOP button once performs a normal shut down, allowing all paper to clear the machine prior to the main motor stopping. Pressing the STOP button twice in quick succession causes an immediate stop of the main motor. This is to be used for emergency stops only.
Folding Multiple Sheets Insert up to 4 sheets of 20# Bond paper through the Multi-sheet Bypass. The sheets may be stapled together. To fold multiple sheets together at the same time, place all of the sheets into the Multi-Sheet Bypass. For best results, insure that all of the pages are aligned with each other. Insert stapled edge first.
Batch Mode The Batch Mode function automatically places a gap between batches. To enable Batch Mode, enter a Batch quantity value greater than 0 (zero). This quantity is the number of sheets to be folded. When this quantity of sheets has been folded, the folder will suspend feeding until the Exit Conveyor has become clear of paper, then will resume folding. This fold/pause/fold sequence will continue until one of the following conditions is met: 1.) the Stop button is pressed, 2.) the Feed Table becomes empty of paper, 3.) a folding error is encountered, or 4.) the programmed quantity reaches 0 (zero).
To enter the Batch Mode, you must press the Quantity (#) button and press the Enter button from the Quantity screen. To specify a different Batch quantity, using the number buttons, enter a value between 0 (zero) and 250, and then press the Enter button to save this value.
Custom Folding Jobs
Custom Paper Lengths To specify a custom paper length, press the Custom Paper Length button. Using the number buttons, enter a valid paper size value and press the Enter button to save this value. When the message displayed reads either "Folder Ready", or "Bypass Ready", you may begin folding.
Custom Fold Table Settings At this time, the folder enters a "manual" mode where you must specify everything manually including Fold Table settings, the Stack Wheel location, and the Paper Length. You may use the pre-programmed paper sizes, if you wish. When the folder is in manual mode, the "Other" light for "SIZE SELECT" will be illuminated. To set a Fold Table using the number buttons enter the desired fold position, and then press the Enter button.

Folder Speed To adjust the speed of your folder, press the Speed button and then press either the increase or decrease button (Incremental Adjustment Buttons). Folder speed can be adjusted while the folder is running. For most folding jobs, the folder can be run at full speed (100%).

This button will "store" the current folder configuration into a memory location.
This button will "recall" a previously stored folder configuration.
