Safety
Before using your letter opener, please read this document and keep it near the machine as a
reference.
The letter opener complies with standard safety regulations for office equipment of this type. Before
operating it, read the following tips to assure safe operation:
Carefully follow the instructions for installation and operation of the letter opener.
Connect the letter opener to a grounded single-phase power outlet.
All maintenance and repair must be done by an authorized Formax service technician. Failure to
observe this rule will void your warranty.
Do not use water or benzene to clean your letter opener.
Avoid operating the letter opener without any envelopes in it. This will reduce the lifetime of the
machine.
Troubleshooting
The letter opener does not
feed envelopes into the cutting
unit.
Apply a slight amount of pressure to the pressure arm or stack of
envelopes until the envelopes are fed again one by one.
Letters are jammed in the
cutting unit.
1. Remove the stack of letters, which are not jammed, from the
feeder. Apart from the envelope that is jammed, pull the remaining
envelopes out of the cutting unit.
2. Then, pull the jammed envelope out of the cutting unit in the
direction of transport (see illustration).
Letters are not opened
properly.
Contact your authorized Formax dealer.
NOTE: Under no circumstances should you use anything such as a pair of scissors to remove any bits
of paper from the cutting unit.
Maintenance
To keep the unit in peak operating condition, periodically clean the feed rollers with a moistened cloth.
