PAPER TO BE USED • Straighten folded or curled paper before use. • Make sure that the ink on the paper has dried up properly before use. If the ink has not dried properly, it may dirty the machine, and cause other problems such as dirtying the folded surface with ink, etc. 15 6. PRECAUTIONS BEFORE USE 6-2. PRECAUTIONS FOR STACKING PAPER • If the paper is not stacked neatly on the paper feed table, the unit will not be able to read the size of the paper accurately and as a result, may determine the paper as outside the standard size. Therefore, be sure to stack the paper neatly. The paper feed table has a built-in device for reading paper size. Take note that this device will not be able to read the paper size correctly if the paper is stacked unevenly. This may as a result cause problems. • Automatic paper size detection can be carried out for paper up to ±2.5 mm of the fixed paper. • If the paper is not stacked properly lengthwise, mis-feed or chain feed may occur. • When stacking just a few sheets of paper on the paper feed table, lower the paper set lever while pressing the back edge of the paper.

When using such a kind of paper, refer to “Using Non-Fixed Paper” on page 44. 20 7. OPERATION PROCEDURES 7 Adjust the paper feed pressure adjusting lever to “0”. Paper feed pressure adjusting lever • If the paper slips and no paper is fed, raise the paper feed pressure one level from 0 to 1. • If several sheets of paper are fed at one time, lower the paper feed pressure one level from 0 to –1. When using art paper or coated paper, refer to “Using Art /Coated Paper” on page 41. 8 Open the Top cover and adjust the separator pressure adjusting dial to “0”. • If several sheets of paper are fed at one time, raise the separator pressure dial from 0 to 1 or 2. • Adjust the separator pressure by gradually increasing the level 0.5 each time. Separator pressure adjusting dial When using art paper or coated paper, refer to “Using Art /Coated Paper” on page 41. 9 Close the Top cover and adjust the speed controller as desired. 21 7. OPERATION PROCEDURES 10 Press the “test” button and perform test folding. • Two sheets of paper will be folded. Even after two folded sheets of paper have been ejected, the machine will not stop working when the stop button is pressed until the buzzer sounds and the motor inside stops completely. The unit will not respond to whatever button on the control panel is pressed. • The paper will be folded properly if it is folded after it has reached the stopper inside the folding plate. • If the paper flowing into the folding plate is folded without reaching the stopper due to conditions such as environmental conditions (temperature, humidity), paper quantity, its type, paper couch conditions, folding speed, curling etc., it may not be folded properly. • In some cases, the paper may also coil around the rubber roll and cause problems. • As such problems can be corrected by decreasing the folding speed, keep decreasing the speed until the paper is folded properly. 22 7. OPERATION PROCEDURES 11 Check the folded paper for testing. • Proceed onto the next step if the sheets of paper have been folded satisfactorily. Check the second ejected paper to confirm that folding is performed correctly. Paper for testing folding • If the sheets of paper have not been folded satisfactorily, refer to the following steps. óIf folding has slipped in the vertical direction: Press the “folding stopper adjustment” button and adjust the folding slippage. Refer to “Adjusting the folding slippage in the vertical direction” on page 36. òIf the folding has slipped in the horizontal direction: Rotate the “slant correction knob” and adjust the folding slippage. Refer to “Adjusting the folding slippage in the horizontal direction” on page 40. Check the folding slippage in the horizontal direction with the second sheet of test fold sample. 12 Slant correction knob Perform test folding again and make sure that there is no slippage. • To register the corrected stopper position, refer to “Registering the Folding Stopper Correction” on page 38. Even if the paper of one size is used, folding slippage in the vertical direction may occur because of the kind of paper used, the paper thickness, processing speed. It is therefore necessary to adjust the folding stopper slightly. 23 7. OPERATION PROCEDURES 13 Input the number of sheets to be folded on the keypad. • Press the numerical key buttons and input/set the number of sheets to be processed. • When this is input, the counter drops. • If this is not input, the counter increases. 14 After completing all preparations, start operation. • Press the “start/stop” button. 15 The unit stops automatically when it has reached the number of sheets to be processed. • It also stops automatically if there is not more paper on the paper feed table. 16 24 To interrupt or to stop operation, press the “start/stop” button again. 7.

USING ART/COATED PAPER • • Art/coated paper are difficult to fold as their printed surfaces tend to stick together easily and cause double feeding. When folding such a kind of paper, observe the following precautions before starting folding operations. 9-1. PRECAUTIONS FOR STACKING PAPER 1 Loosen the paper thoroughly. 2 Next arrange the paper neatly and stack them on the paper feed table. Paper Paper set lever 3 For other precautions, refer to “Precautions for Stacking Paper” on page 16. 41 9. USING ART/COATED PAPER 9-2. OPERATING PRECAUTIONS If double-feed occurs frequently and cannot be corrected, reduce the amount of paper on the paper feed table until the middle of the guide (approx. 25mm) As the specific gravity of this type of paper is higher than that of normal paper, they tend to stick together, causing double-feeding to occur frequently. The amount of paper loaded on the table is therefore reduced. 2 Adjust the paper feed pressure adjusting lever to “3”. Guide Paper 25mm 1 Paper feed pressure adjusting lever • If the paper slips, gradually raise the paper feed pressure one level at a time , from “3” to “4”, until the appropriate paper feed pressure is obtained. • When the paper slips, the display shows “- ¡-” and the unit will stop. Raise the paper feed pressure one level when the unit stops. Set the paper feed pressure within the range of 3 to 5. 3 Next, open the top cover and adjust the separator pressure. • Set the separator pressure adjusting dial to “2.5”. • If the paper sticks and several sheets of paper are fed at one time (double feeding), gradually raise the separator pressure adjusting dial 0.5 at a time until the appropriate separator pressure is obtained. Separator pressure adjusting dial Set the separator pressure within the range of 2.5 to 3.5. • The separator pressure may have to be set to 3.5 or above if the paper feed ring or paper separator, etc. is worn out. But try to set the pressure at the lowest level possible. 42 9. USING ART/COATED PAPER 4 If the paper is not folded properly, adjust the speed control to a slower speed. When paper is folded at a high speed, as the front edges of the paper cannot reach the folding stopper due to various conditions such as environmental conditions (temperature, humidity), paper size, thickness of paper, paper couch conditions, and printed surface conditions, etc., the paper is not folded properly. 5 From here, carry out the usual procedures. • Refer to “Operation Procedures” on page 19. 43 10.
