End Trims on your Baumfolder
Taking off END TRIMS has too many advantages to list here. If you have a printed sheet that
you want to trim off both sides, you can mount the end trims on the folder and save the
operation of the paper cutter. The cut is made on one or both sides and the trim is deflected
onto the floor under the folder. To be successful you should have a trim of at least ¼ inch.
Some have taken a smaller trim, less than ¼ inch, and are successful but most of the time
it’s difficult.
Mount two slitter blades on the blade holder with the sharp side toward the blade holder.
Remember to slide the blade and the blade holder
onto the slitter shaft before you tighten it. Use flat head
screws to mount the slitter blade. Mount two slitter
blades with the bevel side of the slitter blade toward
the blade holder. Mount the slitter blade and blade
holder with the slitter blade with the beveled edge
toward the blade holder on the top shaft, with the
blade holder toward the slitter shaft boxing. Then
mount the slitter blade with the sharp edge toward the
blade holder on the bottom slitter shaft, with the blade
holder toward the slitter shaft boxing on the right side
of the folder. Locate the blade assembly on the top
shaft where you want the out side trim and tighten the
set
screw. Slide the slitter shaft blade assembly on the bottom slitter shaft until the sharp edge of
the slitter blade is against the sharp edge of the top slitter blade and lock it in place. Place a
pullout tire assembly against the slitter blade on
the bottom slitter shaft and one on the top slitter
shaft directly over the one on the bottom slitter
shaft. Space several pullout assemblies to
control the sheet as it leaves the fold rollers.
REVERSE the procedures for the slitter blades
on the operator side. Both of the top slitter
blades should be on the outside. This will cause
the trim to turn down as it is cut, making it
easier to deflect down. Mount the stripper
deflectors as illustrated in the pictures
