1. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

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 fire or electrical shock.

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

or 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 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 fire or 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 fire or electrical shock.

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

flammable gas 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 fire.

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

which the prongs extend. Accumulated dust can result in 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 fire or 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, fire or electrical shock.

Always grip the plug when disconnecting the power plug from the power outlet. Pulling on

the power cord could cause damage, resulting in fire or electrical shock.

Do not handle the power plug with wet hands. This could result in 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. BINDING

This chapter describes binding operations in the on-line mode and off-line (manual feed) mode.

To bind another new set, bind one set, check that each page has been bound properly, and that

the stapled and folded positions are correct first before beginning continuous binding operations.

NOTE : Setting the wrong paper size with the stapler head, clincher, side jogger, etc., and the wrong stapling/folding

method (saddle-stapling, center-folding, side-stapling, corner-stapling) will not only lead to poor finish but

cause the unit to damage as well. Read the following instructions carefully.

5-1. Setting the Staple Position

To set the staple position, the stapler head and clincher must be moved.

To move the clincher, a special tool (accessory) is required.

Disconnect the connector, and then rotate

the knob screw and remove the stapler

head.

Insert the special tool into the clincher,

and while pushing it down, move the

clincher to the desired position.

Set the projection of the special tool to the position to

be set.

Lift up the special tool slightly and swing it to the left

and right. The clincher will stop.

Setting corner-stapling position

A4 and LTR size paper can be corner-stapling only if fed in wide edge leading.

Staples the paper on the right corner as seen from direction in which the paper is moving within

6 mm (0.24") from the tip of the paper.

NOTE : To staple the paper on the left corner as seen from direction in which the paper is moving, the optional

corner-stapling side jogger (left) is required.

As shown in the figure, remove the side

jogger for saddle-stapling/folding, center-

folding, and side-stapling. And attach the

corner-stapling side jogger (right) instead.

NOTE : When setting from the corner-stapling

mode to the side-stapling, saddle-stapling,

and center-folding modes, be sure to

replace the corner-stapling side jogger with

the normal side jogger.

Remove the stapler head which is not used for corner-stapling, and secure the clincher 80 mm

(3.15") from the center of the unit. And set the corner-stapling guide (accessory) at the same

position.

NOTE : Should not use stapler head without the staple cartridge instead of the corner-stapling guide.

Stapling with the staple cartridge removed will cause the stapler head to damage.

5-2. Adjusting the Roller Clearance

If folding operations are to be performed, roller clearance adjustment is required. This is to prevent

the cover of the booklet from damages in binding operations and to prevent paper jamming during

conveyance at the folding section.

Set the clearance adjusting lever to an appropriate position shown in the following table

according to the thickness of the booklet.

The clearance adjusting lever is provided at the left and right sides. Be sure to set the same

position number for both the left and right sides.

4.2 to 5.0 mm (0.17" to 0.20")

Above 4.7 mm (0.19")

NOTE : Since conditions change according to the

paper quality, the setting position of the

lever may differ from the above table.

5. BINDING

5-3. Setting the Position of the Paper Guide Roller Unit

Not necessary for side-stapling and corner-stapling.

Adjust so that the tip of the ejected paper is

slightly beyond the center of the paper guide

roller as follows.

q Loosen the set screw.

w Adjust the position of the roller so that the distance from

the tip of the paper ejected to the center of the roller is

about 30 mm (1.18").

e Tighten the set screw to fix the roller.

NOTE : As above standard position will differ

according to the paper size, quality, and

number of sheets, in such cases, set the

roller accordingly.

The unit will not operate smoothly if the

roller is not set to the appropriate position.

5-4. Using the Guide Unit

When side-stapling is performed, set the guide units and paper holding guide unit on the side-

stapled paper stacker.

Place the paper to be stapled on the stacker. And set the guide units about 20 mm (0.79") away

from the left and right sides of the paper.

Next, set the paper holding guide unit about 50 mm (1.97") away from the tip of the paper.

However, the position of the guide units and paper holding guide unit may change according to

the paper quality and number of sheets to be processed.

Set the guide units and paper holding guide unit so that the curved in part faces outwards.

Set the curved in part inwards only when the paper is too big and the guide units and paper

holding guide unit cannot be set.

NOTE : The paper stacking height for the side-stapled paper stacker is about 90 mm (3.54").

As stacking paper more than this height will cause paper to jam, remove accumulated paper when performing

continuous operations to ensure this height is not exceeded.

5-5. Setting the Position of the Paper Holder

The paper holder is mounted to the conveyance roller unit 1.

At shipment, the paper holder is at the topmost position. However if paper jams at the stapler

section, lower the paper holder and use at the appropriate position.

NOTE : The appropriate position differs according to the paper size, paper quality, and number of sheets.

Paper jamming will occur if the paper holder is not set to the appropriate position.
