a) Upstroke stoppage: If this problem occurs during adjusting and checking the upstroke of the ram it is necessary to turn
the adjusting screws to the right by two turns (the ram goes up). When the upstroke cycle is finished, the red diode is on.
Turn the machine off and back on. After the machine is turned back on the upstroke process should finish. It is necessary
to readjust the ram.
b) Paper jam: If the paper gets jammed or damaged, it is necessary to stop the machine immediately (press the STOP
button). After the machine has been stopped tap on the MOVE icon. Before the paper is removed it is necessary to carry
out an upstroke (1 turn icon). Then press the Backward or Forward button depending on situation.
c) Crease is in incorrect position compared to values set on display
It is necessary to use the recommended creasing width channel for different paper thickness. If the inappropriate crease
width is used (usually narrow creasing channel for thick paper) inaccuracies in the position of the crease may appear, the
crease will be placed at different distances than what is set on the display. If the narrow crease channel is used with thick
paper the paper will be pressed into the creasing channel, the rollers will start to slip trying to release the paper, in this
case the wider crease channel should be used.
