By turning the wheel clockwise: the clamp is lowered.
By turning the wheel counter clockwise: the clamp is raised.
The paper is clamped by tightening the hand wheel (#19) with a quick pull to the right.
IMPORTANT – Only by clamping the paper pile securely is precise cut guaranteed.
•
Back gauge (#22)
The back gauge is spindle -guided for easy and precise adjustment with the crank (#3).
When squaring the paper pile avoid using excessive force against the back gauge otherwise the
back gauge could be knocked fractionally out of the pre -set dimension and the guide piece of the
back gauge is subjected to unnecessary wear.
•
Back gauge crank (#3)
The crank is indirectly connected with the back gauge spindle. The crank is engaged by applying
slight pressure toward the machine. The connection is released by pulling the crank towards the
operator. If the crank is disengaged, the back gauge setting cannot be chan ged inadvertently.
Turn to the right: back gauge moves towards the knife.
Turn to the left: back gauge moves away from the knife.
For precise setting of the measurement always move the back gauge from the back towards the
knife.

Measuring scale
Under the viewing window (#14) the measurement scale rotates in accordance with the back gauge
movement. The exact measurement is to read beneath the indicator. To avoid inaccuracies, the
scale has to be read vertically from above.
•
Side guide (#16)
The side guide (#16) in combination with the back gauge allow a square alignment of paper pile to
be cut.
IMPORTANT – Please note that cutting accuracy depends on precise alignment of the paper
against the side and back gauges and proper tightening of the paper clamp.
