How to bind
1 Measure document using colour coded guide (fig.1)
Open the lid of the machine and rest your document
(including any cover sheets you have chosen) against the lid
on the ‘staging’ area provided. Gently push the document
back against the lid and check the document size using the
colour coded guide on the staging area. You can leave your
document on the staging area in readiness to punch.
2 Select comb which fits your document (fig.2)
Use the comb size guide to select the size of comb that fits
your document i.e. 25 sheet document = 6mm comb.
3 Load comb onto machine (fig.3)
Insert the binding comb next to the white positional arrow
on the machine, behind the metal comb support fingers,
with the open side of the comb pointing upwards.
Note: If using GBC ProCombs™ the white arrow on your
comb should align to the white arrow on the machine.
4 Open comb by turning lever towards you (fig.4)
The coloured arrows adjacent to the opening comb act as
a guide as to how far to open in order to allow punched
sheets to be easily inserted.
Note: If using GBC ProCombs™ the coloured line on your
comb should align to the coloured arrows on the machine
for faster binding.
5 Select document size (fig.5)
Adjust the edge guide button to select the paper / cover
size you wish to bind; A4 (297mm x 210mm) or Letter
(215mm x 279mm) When using oversized covers, select the
oversize position, punch the covers for your document and
set aside. Then select either A4 or Letter and proceed.
6 Load pages into slot (fig.6)
You can punch 2 cover sheets (PVC /240gsm Card only
- other materials x 1 sheet) or up to 20 sheets of paper
(80gsm) at a time.
Using the conventional method: Select the quantity
of sheets to punch and tap the edge of the sheet stack
against the staging area to ensure that all sheets are
aligned. Place the stack to be punched directly into the
punching slot and slide to the left until it comes to rest
against the edge guide. Your sheets will now be perfectly
aligned. Let go of the sheets and grasp the punch handle
with both hands.
Using the gravity fed paper count method for
increased productivity: Pull forward your document (or
a stack of sheets from your document) from its resting
position against the lid. Continue until it meets the wall in
front of the punch slot. Relax your grip on the document
or stack and the first 20 sheets will fall directly into the
punching slot. Return the sheets not engaged in the punch
slot back to a resting position against the lid. Slide the
sheets in the punching slot to the left as far as they will
go. Your sheets will now be perfectly aligned. Let go of the
sheets and grasp the punch handle with both hands.
7 Punching the document (fig.7)
Punch pages by pulling handle down, then lift the handle
back to the vertical position and remove the punched
sheets. Note: To prevent jams do not attempt to punch more
than two cover sheets at a time. (PVC /240gsm Card only,
other materials x 1 sheet)
8 Assemble pages onto open comb (fig.8)
Remove the sheets from the punch slot and insert onto the
fingers of the binding comb.
9 Repeat process as required
Repeat stages 6-8 until your document is fully loaded on
the comb.
