Binding
Check if the binding edge guide is aligned
- Insert an assembled top and bottom strip with a sheet of aligned & punched paper. Adjust the binding edge guide by sliding the guide to the edge of the paper.
- 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. (Please refer to top photo for correct document assembly) 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.
- Insert the correct top strip firmly on to the document to be bound.
- Place the pressure bar firmly on the document. The ready light will turn on indicating that the machine is ready for binding.
- Pull down the handle firmly on the document. After holding down the handle for at least 8 seconds, the light will turn off indicating that the binding cycle is complete. You may hear cutting of the pins during the binding cycle. Raise the handle and then pressure bar. Slide the bound document towards yourself to cut off pins that may still be slightly attached to the strip.
