SECTION 3: SETTING UP
3.1. In setting the machine for a job, it is advisable to start by positioning the side
lay to a suitable position (see below).
This is achieved by unscrewing the knobs (B).
3.2 Lift the knobs out of their holes, and at the same time, move the side lay
assembly to the desired position. Re-tighten screws, ensuring that the side lay
is parallel to the side of the machine.
The side lay is normally set so that the paper is running approximately along
the centre of the machine.
The machine is supplied with a mixture of steel and glass balls:
Lightweight paper stocks may require the steel balls to be removed to
minimise creasing.
Heavy stocks, and when running a job landscape (i.e. long edge leading) may
require the glass balls to be replaced by steel balls to give increased drive on
the paper.
The side lay may be tilted, for folding out of square, by adjusting knobs (A). By
turning knobs (A) equally, the side lay may be used for obtaining final
sideways setting for perforating, etc. Position one sheet smoother at the free
edge of the sheet and the others as required.
3.3 With the side lay now set in position, move the operator side manifold by
loosening knobs (C) and (D).

3.4 The manifold should be aligned to the side lay as shown in the diagram
below and also aligned equally to the scales on the loading table. Re-tighten
screws (C) and (D).
3.5 Place a stack of paper on the loading table and set the far side manifold to
the paper size:
not too tight - this will restrict the feeding
not too loose - thus wasting air, giving low pile heights.
3.6 Set the air control knobs (E) on both manifolds to the desired positions:
white dot at 12 o’clock for fully on
3 o’clock or 9 o’clock for fully off.
These are normally set in the fully on position, unless running lightweight
stocks, carbonless sets, or landscape jobs.

3.7 Slide the shuttle valve knobs (F) to the desired position on each manifold
according to paper size. The settings A2, A3 and A4 are only a guide.
Obviously a very lightweight sheet of A4 will not require the same setting as,
for example, a two sheet thickness of A4. Therefore, air can be expelled and
lost by setting to A2 and losing the extra air out of these slots.
3.8 Position the paper stop block to the rear of paper stack.
3.9 Move the suction opening by loosening knob (G) and re-setting to the desired
position.
The standard setting for the suction opening is with the back of the slot
inside the drum, in line with the edge of the loading table, but may be varied
according to the type of paper being run.

(G)
3.10 Set the Paper Gate to the correct position. The standard setting for horizontal
adjustment of the Paper Gate is 1Omm (3/8") away from the mounting block.
Turn disc J to make this adjustment. This setting is only intended as a guide,
for instance, sheets with an upward curl will require this setting to be
increased.
3.11 Set the height of the Paper Gate to approximately three thicknesses of
paper, by releasing knob (K) and adjusting lever (H). Moving the lever (H)
away from the operator, will reduce the gap. An excessive gap is a most
likely cause of double-sheet feeding.
3.12 Removal of fold plates.
The fold plates are removed by unscrewing the locking lever on each side of
the machine. (Be sure to support the second plate before unlocking, or it
may fall out). The fold plates may then be slid out of their mounting guides.
3.13 Replacement of fold plates
When replacing a fold plate, ensure that it is fully home against its mounting
guide before attempting to tighten the locking knob.
