Safety
Follow the normal safety precautions for all office equipment:
•Use only Pitney Bowes approved supplies, in particular aerosol dusters. Improper storage and use of aerosol dusters or flammable aerosol dusters can cause an explosive-like condition that could result in personal injury and/or property damage. Never use aerosol dusters labeled flammable and always read instructions and safety precautions on the duster label.
•To obtain supplies, please contact our Supply Line™ to place orders. Material Safety Data Sheets can be obtained on the web or from our Supply Line™. Refer to the Contact Information List for more information.
•Use the power cord supplied with the machine and plug it into a properly grounded wall outlet located near the machine and easily accessible. Failure to properly ground the machine can result in severe personal injury and/or fire.
•Avoid touching moving parts or materials while the machine is in use. Keep hands, loose clothing, jewellery and long hair away from all moving parts.
•Do not remove covers or defeat safety interlock switches. Covers enclose hazardous parts that should only be accessed by properly trained service personnel. Immediately report to service any damaged or non-functioning components that renders the unit unsafe.
•Place the unit in an accessible location to allow for proper venting of the equipment and to facilitate servicing.
•The power cord wall plug is the primary means of disconnecting the machine from the AC supply.
•Do not use an adapter plug on the line cord or wall outlet.
•Do not remove the ground pin from the line cord.

•Ensure there is no strain on the power cord and that it does not become jammed between the equipment, walls or furniture.
•Be certain the area in front of the wall receptacle into which the machine is plugged is free from obstruction.
•Before clearing a stoppage, be sure machine mechanisms come to a stop.
•When removing stalled material, avoid using too much force to protect against minor personal injury and damaging equipment.
•To prevent overheating, do not cover any vent openings.
•Operation of this equipment without periodic maintenance will inhibit optimum operating performance and could cause the equipment to malfunction. Contact your machine supplier for required service schedule.
•Read all instructions before attempting to operate the equipment.
•Use this equipment only for its intended purpose.
•Always follow the specific occupational safety and health standards for your workplace.

Stacker
Tray Stacker
Your OfficeRight™ Folder DF800 Machine comes equipped with
a Tray Stacker. This stacker sits on the table and collects exiting material.
Conveyor Stacker CS88 - DF900 (optional extra for DF800)
Your OfficeRight™ Folder DF900 Machine comes equipped with a Conveyor Stacker. A Conveyor Stacker can be added to your
DF800 as an optional extra. This stacker allows organised collation of material on exit of your folding machine. It is able to hold larger quantities of exiting material and is recommended for all frequently used machines. Contact your sales representative for further information.
High Capacity Extension (optional extra)
The High Capacity Stacker is an optional extra to your OfficeRight™ Folder DF800/DF900. The High Capacity Stacker is an extension to the Conveyor Stacker and is able to hold larger quantities of material which results in the stacker needing to be emptied less often. If you run regular large quantity jobs, the High Capacity Extension may
be a beneficial addition to your OfficeRight™ Folder DF800/DF900 system. Contact your sales representative for further information.
