Power Supply

● This unit shall be installed near the socket-outlet where the plug on the power supply cord is easily accessible.

● Make sure the power supply used is always within the following range.

Power supply : 120 V AC, 60 Hz

● When you power other appliances from the same AC outlet, make sure that the combined power consumption does not exceed the power supply capacity.

Rated current (Rated power) : 0.85 A

● The equipment must be reliably connected to an earthed main socket-outlet.

Use only the power supply voltage speciﬁed on the main nameplate.

Using other voltages could result in a ﬁre or an electrical shock.

Make sure that the combined power consumption of the appliances to be connected does not exceed the capacity rating of the power outlets or plug receptacles.

Exceeding the capacity rating could cause the power outlets, plug receptacles, or power extension cords to overheat and catch a ﬁre.

Safety Precautions

Operating Environment

Operate this unit in the following environment.

● where the temperature range is between 41 and 95°F (14 to 122°F in storage)

● where the humidity range is between 20 and 85% RH (10 to 90% RH in storage, however no condensation)

●

which is not subject to direct sunlight

● which is reasonably free from dust

● which is subject to little or no vibration

● which is free from air-borne salt

● where there are no harmful chemicals

● where the unit is not exposed to water

Keep this unit and the power cord away from heaters and heater vents.

Excessive heat could melt the cover or power cord covering, and result in a ﬁre or an electrical shock.

Do not place metal objects or vessels containing liquids on top of the unit.

The entry of any metal object or liquid could result in a ﬁre or an electrical shock.

Do not insert any metal or easily-combustible object inside this unit.

This could result in a ﬁre or an electrical shock.

Do not use ﬂammable sprays inside or near the unit (e.g. when cleaning the unit).

Such ﬂammable gas may ignite and cause a ﬁre or combustion.

Do not install this unit in a location where there is excessive humidity or where contact with water is possible.

Poor choice of location could result in deterioration of the insulation, a ﬁre or an electrical shock.

Install this unit on a level, stable stand or ﬂoor, with sufﬁcient space around it.

Failure to do so could result in the unit overturning and causing injury.

Disconnect the power plug from the power outlet before attempting to move this unit.

Failure to do so could result in power cord damage, a ﬁre or an electrical shock.

Always disconnect the power plug from the power outlet when the unit is not to be used for an extended period.

Failure to do so could result in a ﬁre due to leakage current if the insulation should deteriorate.

iii

Safety Precautions

Maintenance / Other

Do not damage the power cord or power plug.

Do not scratch, alter, bend, twist, pull or place heavy objects on the power cord or power plug.

This could result in damage, a ﬁre or an electrical shock.

Do not touch the power switch with wet hands.

Otherwise electric hazards may occur.

Do not remove the cover or back panel.

This unit contains high-voltage components that could cause an electrical shock.

Do not disassemble, modify or repair this unit.

There is a danger of ﬁre, electrical shock or injury.

Contact your dealer when repairs are necessary.

If any foreign object such as metal or liquid should enter this unit, immediately turn the unit off at the power switch and disconnect the power plug from the power outlet.

Failure to do so could result in a ﬁre or an electrical shock.

Contact your dealer immediately.

Before cleaning this unit, turn the unit off at the power switch and disconnect the power plug from the power outlet.

Accidental operation of the unit during cleaning could result in injury.

Remove any dust that accumulates on the power plug prongs and the surface of the plug from which the prongs extend.

Chapter 1 BEFORE OPERATION

Bearing support lever

Non-operator’s side

Turn the bearing support lever on the non-operator's side in the direction of the arrow

The bearing will be locked.

Because the bearing support lever presses down the rubber roll, if it is not locked, thick paper may not be folded properly.

5. Handling Paper

5-1. Paper Used

●

Make sure that the printing ink on the paper has dried completely prior to use.

If used without the ink completely dried, the folding roller or paper may become dirty.

●

If curled paper is used, depending on the environmental condition (temperature, humidity), paper quantity, paper type, and paper ﬁber, it may not ﬂow smoothly into the folding plate or may not be folded properly. Flatten the paper prior to use.

●

Fan paper well prior to use.

5-2. Precautions on Stacking Paper

●

Do not stack paper on the paper feed table with the left and right sides of the paper unaligned or some sheets protruding out.

●

Do not stack paper on the paper feed table with the lead and tail edges unaligned or some sheets protruding out.

If the paper is protruding at the lead or tail edge, paper will not be fed stably, resulting in problems such as paper feed error and folding misalignment.
