Safety Rules

• Ensure that at no time more than one person is working at the machine.

• Leave the key for the safety lock with the person responsible for the cutting machine.

• Power operated cutting machines must be operated only by trained and reliable personnel. Part of

the training is to become familiar with the operating instructions.

• The operating instructions must be accessible at any time and must be strictly observed.

• Do not reach into cutting area white the knife or the paper clamp through switching operations.

• Change knife and cutting stick only with the main switch in “off” position. For other maintenance

and repair, which requires removal of machine covers, always disconnect the plug.

• Defects in or damage to cutting machines, which affect the safety, must be repaired immediately.

Until such faults have been eliminated the cutting machine must be put out of operation.

• Annual routine inspections by specially trained service technicians are recommended for all safety

devices, parti cularly the electric control measures in the cutting machine. Records should be kept
of these safety inspections.

• Transportation of knives is only allowed in specially designed wooden cases supplied by your

local distributor. When inserting knife into the wooden case, ensure that the sharp edge lies flush
with the side of the case into which the holes for the securing screws have been drilled.

• Important – The safety rules must be strictly observed. Please make sure that you are

familiar with the operatio n of the paper cutter.

Installation

3

The entire machine is dispatched in one package, but the stand has been dismounted from the
machine.

The tool box contains:

- a set of tools for service and maintenance,

- the mounting hardware for the stand,

- the back gauge crank (#3) with a mounting screw,

- two keys for safety lock.

• Place machine (#1) on stand (#8).

• Insert the four securing bolts for the stand into provided holes and secure with nuts.

• Place paper tray (#10) into the stand (#8).

• For models IDEAL 4850, IDE AL 4850-90, and IDEAL 5250, connect power cord with plug to a

normal single phase AC socket.

The models IDEAL 6550 and IDEAL 6550-90 must be connected to a 5-point, 3 phase current
source. If, when switched on the machine should fail to operate, then the phase sequence of the
machine does not coincide with that of the power source. To rectify this one must swap the brown
(or red) wire with a black one in the plug of the machine.

The machine is now ready to be operated.
