Initial Fold Length Settings –
Using Scales
Instead of the guide lights fold lenth set-
ting’s can be made using the symbols on
the colored scales
The scales (17) on the fold tables are as
shown (second fold scale illustrated) with
bands of:
• Light blue for 11" x 17"
• Medium blue for 8.5" x 14" (legal size)
• Dark blue for 8.5" x 11" (letter size).
Fold symbols on the colored bands have
leader lines to show where the indicator
(38) should be positioned for that fold.
The illustrated example shows the indica-
tor position for the second fold in an 11" x
17" sheet for either a single fold or a gate
fold. The setting for the first fold will
determine which of the two will result
from this second fold.
Move the indicator to the leader line corre-
sponding to the desired fold and paper size
(see page 17).
NOTE
The indicator may be slightly off center
after adjustment to get a perfect fold.
Different paper types and weights will have
slightly different positions on the paper
stop indicator.
