Register Table Adjustment
When setting up the initial job on your folder it is necessary to start with the adjustment of the
register table.
TO POSITION THE SIDE GUIDE (see figure 4)
Loosen the MICRO-ADJUSTING KNOBS. Turn them to the center of the adjusting range.
Loosen the thumbscrews (underneath the left side of the register board) holding the SIDE
GUIDE. Position the SIDE GUIDE so the end closest to fold rollers is about ¼ inch to the
right of the left end of the knurl of the rollers.
Place a sheet of paper to be run firmly against the innermost edge of the SIDE GUIDE. Slide
the sheet toward the rollers until it is approximately 2 inches from the fold rollers. Lift the first
fold plate out and lay it in a safe place. Turn the hand wheel until the sheet of paper comes
out of the first set of rollers. Watch the sheet to see if it comes out square, or if one corner
comes out before the other. If one corner comes out before the other, move the MICRO
ADJUSTMENT KNOB closest to the feeder in or out to square the sheet to the rollers. THE
SIDE GUIDE SHOULD BE AT A 90 DEGREE ANGLE WITH THE ROLLERS.
Retighten the side guide thumbscrews.
The MARBLE RACK should be positioned with the end closest to the fold rollers
approximately ¼ inch from the SIDE GUIDE and the other end approximately ¾ inch from
the SIDE GUIDE.
The marble closest to the fold rollers should be directly over the TAPE ROLL.
Use mostly glass marbles in the MARBLE RACK except for heavy paper. For heavy paper,
use mostly steel marbles. The purpose of the marbles is to hold the paper against the guide
but not roll up in the guide when running.
