Operating Safety Precautions

WARNINGS for Operation
This machine must be operated by just one person at a time.
Work alone when you maintain and lubricate the machine. Letting someone else operate the machine may cause severe personal injury.
Do not remove or bypass any safety features. Moving parts can cause severe personal injury.
Some adjustments must be made with some of the machine covers opened. Keep your hands and fingers outside of the safety cover and away from any moving parts while the machine is running. Otherwise moving parts can cause severe personal injury.
The machine will not stop immediately if the Emergency Stop switch on an upstream device is pressed. After all in-process booklets are delivered, the machine will stop.
Do not allow anyone else near the machine when you are moving the main section of the SPF forwards or backwards.
When replacing the knife, wear gloves and do not touch the edge of the knife directly. The knife is extremely sharp, and may cause severe personal injury.
Press the Emergency Stop button before turning the handwheel. A sudden accidental start of the machine can cause severe personal injury.
Do not operate the fore-edge trim section separately from the SPF main unit.
CAUTIONS for Operation
After turning off the power switch, wait ten seconds before turning it on again. Otherwise, a circuit board may be damaged.
The fold knife and roller may strike each other if the fold knife is lifted too far. Turn the fold knife height adjustment knob in small amounts.
Remove the cable connected to the SPF main unit before moving the fore-edge trim section away.

Wire Feeding Detection Sensor
As the wire is feeding, the wire guide bends down and immediately returns to its original position. This sensor watches the movement of the wire guide to see that the wire is feeding properly. The sensor is turned on (red LED lights) when the wire guide is bent down.
Clincher Lever
This allows you to remove a stitch which remains in the clincher section.
Stitcher Head Drive Block
When one of these blocks is removed, the machine does not make stitches on that side. The block on the non-stitched side should be removed when you are doing corner stitching. (The instruction screen is displayed on the touch panel.)
Coil Brake
This brake prevents the coil from turning too easily and tangling the wire. If the brake is pressed harder against the coil, it becomes harder to turn the coil.
Stitch Angle Adjusting Knob
The stitch angle can be adjusted using this knob if one stitch is not lined up.
Wire Coil
Standard wire is No.25 (0.5 mm in diameter) Optional wire No.26 (0.45 mm in diameter) is available.
Wire Guide
Red LED This lamp lights when the sensor detects the wire guide.
There are circuit breakers inside this cover. See Section 6-10.
These holes allow for installation of two optional stitcher heads. The positions of these two stitchers are fixed.
Sheet Holder
This holder prevents the sheet from floating. Long, short, and side stitch­ing holders are available. Select the holder to match the binding pattern and sheet size. To change the holder, loosen the locking knob. Set the position of the holder to match the thickness of the book­let.

Stitch Distance
For Saddle Stitching The “stitch distance” is the distance between the centers of the stitches. Set the stitch distance as listed below:
When top and bottom distance is 185mm (7.285") or more
- 79.1 to 92.0 (mm)
- 138.0 to 150.9 (mm)
- 234.0 to 246.0 (mm)
- 3.860” to 5.905”
If the top-to-bottom distance is less than 185mm (7.285")
- 79.1 to 80.9 (mm)
If the stitch distance is adjusted outside this range, skewing may occur because the stitch hits the fold knife, or the crooked trimming may occur because the stitch hits the booklet stopper. If a value outside the normal range is entered, the value is shown in red and the
caution icons( ) are displayed.
On a machine set to measure in inches, you must set the stitch distance carefully so that the stitches do not hit the fold knife or booklet stopper.
Stitch distance so that the stitch does not hit the fold knife
- 3.860” to 5.905”
Stitch distance so that the stitch does not hit the booklet stopper
- 3.115” to 3.185”

1. When is selected, the manual feed timing did not match the feed timing of the collator.
-Feed the sheets manually to match the feed from the collator.
-If the problem occurs again, use (Sheets are fed manually under the sheets fed from the collator).
2. The SPF-200A/200L does not receive the segmentation Signal from the upstream device, therefore, the SPF-200A/200L does not work normally. Check that the posi­tion of the VAC delivery sensor is correct. Connect and disconnect the connection cable between the SPF-200A/200L and the upstream device.
3. If the segmentation signal is invalid temporarily, the feed error occurs and the error icon appears.
Close the cover. No sheets for manual feeding are loaded. Load the sheets for manual feeding in the
manual feed section and restart the binding operation.
Although the manual feeding operation was performed, the sheet was not fed.
Close the cover.
There is a sheet jam in the infeed section. Open the cover and remove the sheets. If a sheet is not jammed, the sensor may be dirty. See Section 6-5-3 and clean the sensor.

The sheets enter into the jog section before the stopper rises. Therefore, the sheets may not stop at the correct position. Lower the production speed on the Binding­Operation screen.
There was too much load on the top and bottom guide, or transport pusher, and one of the parts moved. Check that only the specified guides and stoppers are attached when you do the changeover.
There is a problem with the wire feed. This error is displayed if the preset number of stitching operations has been com­pleted, or if the wire guide has been detected continuously (wire is tangled), or if the wire guide has not been detected at all (wire has run out). Check if the wire is strained from the wire coil to the wire guide. Check if the wire has run out, or the wire has jammed inside the stitcher head, Check if a booklet with no stitches has been delivered to the downstream device. If the problem occurs again although the wire is OK, change the wire feeding detection setting. (Refer to Section 3-5, step 4.) On the Administrator Mode screen, set the number of times the machine can miss a stitch before this error is detected. (Refer to page 31.)

Check if the wire is strained from the wire coil to the wire guide. Check if the wire has run out, or the wire has jammed inside the stitcher head. Check if a booklet with no stitches has been delivered to the downstream device. If the problem occurs again although the wire is OK, change the wire feeding detection setting. (Refer to Section 3-5, step 4.) On the Administrator Mode screen, set the number of times the machine can miss a stitch before this error is detected. (Refer to page 31.)
There was too much load on the transport pusher, and the position of the transport pusher has changed. If there are jammed sheets, remove the sheets. If the transport pusher is discon­nected, attach the transport pusher. Increase the stitch delay time in Binding-Status Setting Screen. ( Refer to Section 1-3-8.)
Some sheets remain in the jog section. Remove the sheets. The possible causes are following.
- This error may be displayed when operating in high production speed, and the trans­port belt moves to one side.
- The tail edge of the sheets may stay in the exit of the infeed section, and the sheets are not transported completely. Adjust the angle of the sheet holder. (Refer to Section 4-2.)
Sheet jams in the transport way between the jog section and the fold section. Remove the sheets.
This error may be displayed if the distance between the jog pushers is too tight in relation to the sheet size. If the sheets are not jogged in the stitch section, increase the jogging frequency using the Binding-Status Setting screen. (Refer to page 25.) If the problem occurs again, increase the distance between the fold knife position and the jog pusher using the Binding-Fine Adjust-Fold Section screen. (Refer to Section 1-3-7.)
A booklet is jammed in the exit of the fold section. Remove the jammed booklet. If a sheet is not jammed, the sensor may be dirty. See Section 6-5-3 and clean the sensor.
A booklet is jammed in the fold section. Remove the jammed booklet. Check if the buckle gap is too narrow. (Refer to Section 3-3-3.) If a sheet is not jammed, the sen­sor may be dirty. See Section 6-5-3 and clean the sensor.
A sheet is jammed in the horizontal transport section (if you are not doing folding) or in the fold section (if you are doing folding). Remove the sheets. If it is difficult to remove them, remove the sheet guides first. (Refer to Section 5-2.) When folding thin booklets, raise the fold knife. Also check if the booklet thickness has been entered correctly.

The booklet is transported from the upstream device. However, the HP-200A entrance sensor did not detect the booklet.
The booklet is jammed in the infeed section. Remove the booklet. If a booklet is not jammed, the sensor may be dirty. See Section 6-5-3 and clean the sensor.
The booklet is jammed in the punch section. Remove the booklet. If a booklet is not jammed, the sensor may be dirty. See Section 6-5-3 and clean the sensor.
The delivery timing error from the upstream device occurred. If the problem occurs again, slow down the production speed.
Sheet could not be detected at punch section.
The jog error occurred. This error occurs when a booklet with folding only or a fed booklet are not arranged properly. First, set the punch delay time longer. If this error occurs repeat­edly, increase the number of jog. If the jog pusher mis-jogs, increase the jog pusher stroke.
Cause and Solution
Turn the Emergency Stop button to release it.
Close the cover.
Although a booklet was delivered from the upstream device, the sensor in the entrance of the fore-edge section did not detect the booklet. If the booklet stopped because the distance between the upper and lower infeed belts is too wide, reduce the distance between the upper and lower infeed belts in the fore-edge trim section. (Refer to Section 4-5.)
A booklet is jammed at the entrance of the fore-edge trim section. Remove the book­let.
If the problem occurs again, Section 4-5.) If a booklet is not jammed, the sensor may be dirty. See Section 6-5-3 and clean the sensor.
A booklet is jammed in the fore-edge trim section. Remove the booklet. If a booklet is not jammed, the sensor may be dirty. See Section 6-5-3 and clean the sensor.
A booklet may be transported diagonally in the fore-edge trim section. Check that when using small booklets, the fore-edge trim unit is positioned toward the front as instructed. If the booklet is crooked when it hits the stopper, adjust the gap between the transport belts. (Refer to Section 4-5.)
The distance between the transported booklets was too short. The booklet delivery operation from the SPF-200A/200L is incorrect. The sheets may not be fed into the fold section smoothly. Check if there are sheet strips remaining on the sheet path. If there are no sheet strips remaining, increase the fold section top and bottom guide stroke using the Binding-Status Setting-Fold/Fore-edge Trim/Conveyor screen. If the problem occurs again, slow down the production speed.
Remove the sheets.
Refer to the user’s manual for TBC-200L.
