OPERATOR MAINTENANCE
1. I
t is recommended to let forms cool for one-half hour, from the laser printer, before folding. This allows toner to set
on the forms and static electricity to discharge. A 402 Series Jogger is recommended for best results. The Jogger
squares the forms and dissipates heat and static electricity created by laser printers.
2. If toner builds up on the metal sealer rollers clean the rollers with a lint-free cloth dampened sparingly with a mild
household cleaner.
3. Clean in-feed tires and fold rollers with Formax recommended roller cleaner & rejuvenator to remove paper dust and
toner. A Formax Cleaner Kit is available from your dealer. A damp cloth with water is the best alternative.
CAUTION: Do not use any chemicals other than the roller cleaner & rejuvenator or water.
Fold Rollers
1. Make sure machine is turned off and unplugged. The
sealers have three (3) feed tires and four (4) rubber
rollers (Fig. 12a & 12b).
2. Open the top covers and remove the upper and lower
fold plates to access the tires and rollers.
3. Using Formax roller cleaner, spray a new cotton cloth
until the cloth is saturated. Wipe the wet cloth in a
back and forth motion and rotate the tires / rollers by
hand making sure to clean the entire surface of the
feed tire / fold rollers. Next use a dry cloth and wipe off
excess toner. The cloth should be covered with black
toner surplus from cleaning the tires / rollers.
4. Run 10-15 sheets of blank copy paper through the
folder/sealer to ensure all cleaner has been removed
from the fold rollers. Running blank sheets will remove
any excess residue of cleaner on the rollers.
