SET-UP INTRUCTIONS (STEPS 1-4a)

1) Based on document thickness you must first determine the

optimal wire diameter size needed. To do this, insert your full

unbound document into the Diameter Selector. See picture 1

2) Next, based on the selected wire diameter size, pre-set the

Wire Closer opening. To do so, slide the Wire Closer Control

to the matching wire diameter size on window. See picture 2.

3) Based on document length, you must now adjust the side

margin for an evenly centered punch. To do so, press and

slide Side Margin Control. See Picture 3.

Hint: We recommend for you to test punch some waste

paper and readjust the Side Margin Control as needed.

4a) Insert selected wire element into wire holder. Doing so will

allow for easier insertion of sheets after each punch.

See picture 4

to be bound inside wire closer with the opening of the wire element facing down. See picture 6
