2. Locate the knife height adjustment knobs at
the left rear of the machine (Figure 4-14).
3. If the knives were just replaced or installed,
turn the knife height adjustment knobs all
the way counterclockwise until they stop.
This will set the knife depth to the highest
position. If the knife was not just replaced or
installed, raise the knife depth slightly by
turning the knife height adjustment knobs
counterclockwise approximately three full
revolutions.
4. Open the doors to access the three knife ar-
eas.
5. Examine the cut plates and cut stick, and ro-
tate or replace if necessary (See Sections
4.3 Cut Plates and 4.4 Cut Stick).
6. Place a scrap book underneath the face
knife such that the knife will cut a small
amount of trim off the face of the book. The
spine should be facing the front of the ma-
chine.
7. Place a scrap book under the side knives
such that the knives will cut a small amount
of trim off the top and bottom of the book,
making sure that the spine is lined up with
the relief notches in the clamps. The spine
should be facing the front of the machine.
8. Securely close all doors.
9. Press and hold the remote cut button
(Figure 4-14) for about 1 second. The hy-
draulic motor will turn on and the cutting
mechanism will perform a cut cycle for both
the side and face knives.
10. Open the doors and check each book. If the
bottom cover of either book is not fully cut
through, set the knife depth deeper by turn-
ing the appropriate knife adjustment knob
1/4 revolution clockwise (adjusting the corre-
sponding knife or knives down).
11. Repeat steps 6 through 10 as necessary un-
til the bottom covers are cut completely with-
out the knives cutting too deep into the cut
plates or cut stick.
