When switched on, the machine performs a
‘System-Check’ function. The control panel
illuminates LED neons in sequence to check
their operation.
‘Heat-Shield’ function
The document clamp operates as a ‘Heat
Shield’ to prevent operators from accidentally
touching the heating plate.
‘Auto-Off’ function
If the machine is not active for 30 minutes, the
‘Auto-Off’ function will place the machine into
standby mode. The ’Power-On’ LED will flash
red and green. To operate the machine, press
the ‘Power-On’ button.
•
Always put the document into the appropriate
sized binding cover.
•
For better results, consider including blank
sheets to fill the thermal cover to capacity.
•
Always test bind with a similar size and
thickness of thermal covers before final process.
•
Helios has an angled heater mechanism to
ensure correct document alignment with the
document support during the binding process.
•
For best results, use Fellowes® brand
supplies.
•
Thermal binding covers work best with thin
and uncoated types of paper. Care should be
taken with thick and coated papers to ensure
satisfactory results.
•
If the sheets have not been glued completely to
the cover, the document can be re-processed to
improve the result.
•
Ensure the sheets are well aligned and
touching the glued spine of the thermal cover
by tapping the collated document in the cover
onto a flat surface. This can be done before
and after the binding process.
