FEED TABLE SIDE GUIDE ADJUSTMENT
In order for your machine to fold squarely, it must be
fed into the rollers square. On the paper feed table
there are two guides which keep the stack of paper
properly aligned for feeding into the folder. (Fig. 18).
Adjust these guides to correspond with the different
widths of paper being processed.
1. To adjust the paper feed guides, loosen the two side
guide locking knobs on each guide.
2. Slide the guides from side to side until the inside edge
of each guide is aligned with the number corresponding
to the width of the paper being folded. Example: For a
10cm wide sheet, move the side guides until the inside
edges align with the “10” on the feed table.
3. An additional check is to lay a sheet of paper on the
feeder, close to but not touching the side guides. Push
the sheet down into the nip of the fold rolls.
4. Next, loosen the adjusting knobs and align the guide
so it’s parallel to the edge of the paper. When one side
is square, the other side can be moved into position.
5. Tighten the locking knobs to secure the paper guides
in position.
NOTE: When loading an actual job, you may have to
move these guides slightly to accommodate variations
in sheet size. To feed properly, the paper must slide
freely between these guides.
GAP ADJUSTMENT
1. With the machine running, insert two sheets of paper
between the tab and the sucker wheel. (Fig. 19)
2. Turn the gap knob counterclockwise until there is a
slight drag on the paper.
3. Remove the paper. The correct gap is now set.

VACUUM FEED SHEET SEPARATOR
The sheet separator will have to be adjusted for the
weight of paper you are folding. Ideal adjustment
will feed only one sheet without marking the paper
or feeding doubles. Use the following procedure to
get started. Fine tune these adjustments according
to the condition of the paper and the environmental
conditions of your particular work area.
