INTRODUCTION

Always observe the cautions and warnings given below to prevent personal injury or property

damage.

The degree of danger and damage that could occur is indicated on two levels by the

following marks.

WARNING: Ignoring this mark could result in the possibility of serious injury

or even death.

CAUTION: Ignoring this mark could result in the possibility of injury or

physical damage.

The following graphic symbols indicate the various types of action to be performed

or avoided.

This graphic symbol indicates a forbidden action.

means “Do not disassemble.”

means “Do not touch.”

This graphic symbol indicates actions that must be performed.

means “Disconnect the power plug.”

WARNING:

Do not place metal objects or vessels containing liquids on top of the unit. The entry of

any metal object or liquid could result in a fire or an electrical shock.

Do not insert any metal or easily-combustible object inside this unit. This could result in

a fire or an electrical shock.

Do not touch or insert foreign objects into any rotating part during operation. This could

result in injury.

Do not remove the cover or back panel. This unit contains high-voltage components that

could cause an electrical shock.

Do not disassemble, modify or repair this unit. There is a danger of fire, electrical shock

or injury. Contact your dealer when repairs are necessary.

Use only the power supply voltage specified on the main nameplate. Using other

voltages could result in a fire or an electrical shock.

Keep this unit and the power cord away from heaters and heater vents. Excessive heat

could melt the cover or power cord covering, and result in a fire or an electrical shock.

1. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Do not use flammable sprays or solvent inside or near the unit (e.g. when cleaning the

unit).

Such flammable gas or solvent may ignite and cause a fire or combustion.

Make sure that the combined power consumption of the appliances to be connected

does not exceed the capacity rating of the power outlets or plug receptacles. Exceeding

the capacity rating could cause the power outlets, plug receptacles, or power extension

cords to overheat and catch a fire.

Remove any dust that accumulates on the power plug prongs and the surface of the plug

from which the prongs extend. Accumulated dust could result in a fire.

If any foreign object such as metal or liquid should enter this unit, immediately turn the

unit off at the power switch and disconnect the power plug from the power outlet. Failure

to do so could result in a fire or an electrical shock. Contact your dealer immediately.

Do not damage the power cord or power plug. (Do not scratch, alter, bend, twist, pull or

place heavy objects on the power cord or power plug.)

This could result in damage, a fire or an electrical shock.

Always grip the plug when disconnecting the power plug from the power outlet. Forcibly

pulling on the power cord could cause damage, resulting in a fire or an electrical shock.

Do not touch the power plug or power switch with wet hands. This could result in an

electrical shock.

Before cleaning this unit, turn the unit off at the power switch and disconnect the power

plug from the power outlet. Accidental operation of the unit during cleaning could result

in injury.

CAUTION:

Always disconnect the power plug from the power outlet when the unit is not to be used

for an extended period. Failure to do so could result in fire due to leakage current if the

insulation should deteriorate.

Install this unit on a level, stable stand or floor, with sufficient space around it. Failure to

do so could result in the unit overturning and causing injury.

Do not install this unit in a location where there is excessive humidity or where contact

with water is possible. Poor choice of location could result in deterioration of the

insulation, fire or electrical shock.

Disconnect the power plug from the power outlet before attempting to move this unit.

Failure to do so could result in power cord damage, fire or electrical shock.

5. PREPARING FOR OPERATION

❊ Size change

Size change is the process of returning guides to their standard points once, and then moving them to the positions set

according to the settings of the memory number selected. Pressing the [Size Change key] changes the size.

This process is required after the power is turned on, and after the memory number is changed. When the message display

shows “Perform paper size change” and the [Size Change key] blinks, size change is also required. Normally, the stitcher

will not return to its standard point.

But pressing the [Size Change key] while pressing the [Clear key] returns the stitcher to its standard position and moves it

to the set position.

Pressing the [Size Change key] while pressing numerical key 0 only returns all guides to their standard positions.

NoteNote

While “Perform paper size change” is displayed, this machine will not operate.

❊ Processed number display

Counts up the number of sets normally processed. The display can be reset to 0 using the [Processed number clear key].

The count is reset to 0 when the power is turned off.

❊ Starting/stopping processing

Pressing the [Start key] of this machine or the upstream machine starts processing. Pressing the [Stop key] ejects all

paper being processed, after which this machine stops. If an error occurs during processing, this machine will stop according

to the situation. If an error of the emergency stop switch, top cover, or shutter occurs during processing, the machine will

also stop immediately.

❊ Step-ejection

Pressing the [Jog key] binds paper left in the machine and ejects them.

Perform the following procedure using the [Jog key].

1. This machine will keep running while the [Jog key] is held down.

2. When the [Jog key] is released, paper inside the machine will to be stitched or folded, and move to next step. The

machine will then wait for the next jog key operation.

When paper jams inside the machine, a paper jam message appears and the machine stops. However, visually check the

machine because the machine will stop due to paper jam without displaying the paper jam message in some cases. In

such cases, open the top cover and remove the paper.

3. When conveyance is being carried out continuously, press the [Jog key] several time to execute stitching or folding, and

eject the processed sets.

NoteNote

If paper is forcibly ejected by the upstream unit, this machine will also perform conveyance motion.

The paper will stop at the stitching area but this machine will not advance the paper fed.

Open the top cover and remove the paper conveyed to this machine.

Normally, stitching is done at two positions.

options.

❊ Aligning the paper passage lines

After preparing this machine for binding operations, check

that the paper passage line is aligned to that of the

upstream unit.

When paper conveyed from the upstream unit is conveyed

to this machine, check that there is even space between

the left and right side joggers and paper.

If not even, adjust the position of this machine to avoid

paper jams.

Move this machine at other fine adjustment screens of the

fine adjustment menu, until the space becomes even.

(

Refer to page 60.)

When paper is more than 140 mm/5.51 inch wide, the

standard stitching width is determined by the ratio of 1:2:1.

Stitching width is the center to center distance between

the two stitches. However, if the stitching position lies

inside the stitch prohibited area, it will be set at a position

avoiding this area.

For example, if the paper width is 240 mm/9.45 inch,

stitching is carried out at the 60 mm/2.36 inch and 180 mm

/7.09 inch positions from the paper edge.

When less than 140 mm/5.51 inch, the stitching width is

70 mm/2.76 inch (minimum stitching width).

The stitching width (the ratio) can be changed. (

Refer

to page 58.)

❊ Stitch prohibited area

The position at which the folding knife and a stitch

coincide is called the stitch prohibited area.

During folding operations, the folding knife may bend the

stitch if they touch.

When a standard stitching position determined by the

paper width entered is inside the stitch prohibited area, the

position avoids this area automatically.

NoteNote

When adjusting the stitching width, avoid the
