2.4.2  Half Fold Operation 

Half Fold Operation requires only one fold table be used (the first fold table in the 1501).  First, 
the second fold table must be put into the single fold position 

(see figure #17)

.  Do this by pulling 

out on the bottom edge of the fold table and lowering it so that the “single fold” hole is aligned 
with the mounting post.  Fold table may then be pushed onto its mounting post.  Once the second 
fold table is in the “single fold” position, this fold table is disabled and moving its paper stop will 
have no effect.  The first fold table paper stop must now be adjusted for the half fold

 (see section 

2.5 and figure #15 for paper stop placement)

.  

Note:  Use only the second exit tray as shown 

in figure #19.

  

 

2.4.3  Custom Folds

 

To make custom folds, simply use 
the rulers to gauge the fold length 
measured from the paper stop edge 
to the fold.  If the fold is longer on 
one side than the other, adjust the 
paper stop with a slight tilt to 
compensate. 
 

2.5  Exit tray set-up

 

Place the first exit tray behind the folder 
with the long end up and the short lip 
pointed toward the folder 

(see figure #18)

.  

The first exit tray should be centered and touching the folder.    Place the second exit tray directly behind 
and on top of the first.  The distance between the exit trays will vary with different types of folds.  This 
distance can be adjusted until the desired paper stack is obtained.  

Note:  Use only the second exit tray 

when making half folds with the 1501  (see figure #19)
