14. Connect the BookMaster to the mains power supply and switch on.
15. Adjust the sidelay home position (BookMaster Pro only, see section 3.3.1
‘‘Axis Home Position Calibration - Sidelays’’).
Centre Reference
1. To check that the tampers are centre referenced correctly, measure the dis-
tance from the inside face of each side, to the outside face of the corre-
sponding sidelay, whilst the sidelays are energised. This distance should
be equal for both sides. If not adjustment is necessary.
2. To set the sidelay centre reference, remove the lower of the two 50T nylon
gears from the L/H tamper adjuster shaft, found on the R/H side of the
machine (held in place with 8mm circlip and located with 3mm pin).
3. Set the L/H sidelay by turning the shaft until it is correctly referenced
(remember that the sidelays must be energised).
4. Calibrate the sidelay home position (BookMaster Pro only - see section
3.3.1 ‘‘Axis Home Position Calibration - Sidelays’’).
5. Replace the clincher guard plate, side panels and rear panel.
Procedure - Fold Latch
The fold latch assembly is factory set to be parallel with the fold blade by
measuring the distance between each side of the latch and the blade. This pro-
cedure can be carried out in the field, but in normal circumstances it is suffi-
cient and much quicker to use the following procedure.
1. Set the BookMaster axes for A3>A4 size booklets. Switch off the staple
heads by pressing the orange on/off button.
2. Take a sheet of A3 paper (that is known to be square) and mark the top.
Hand feed the sheet into the BookMaster and examine the resulting folded
sheet for squareness. If the fold is not square then the fold latch will need
adjusting.
3. To adjust the fold latch, slacken the M6 socket head screw located under
the bottom panel of the fold latch assembly, using a 5mm allen key. The
tie bar on which the latch assembly is mounted can now be re-positioned.
Tighten the fixing screw and repeat steps 2 and 3 until the fold is square.
4. Calibrate the fold latch home position (BookMaster Pro only - see section
3.3.2 ‘‘Axis Home Position Calibration - Fold’’).
5. Switch on the staple heads and hand feed various size sets into the
machine. Examine the books and ensure that they are all square.
Procedure - Staple Latch
1. Set the BookMaster axes for A3>A4 size booklets.
2. Using a 3mm allen key slacken off the four M5 button head screws and the
steel washers securing the fold latch cover panel and remove.
3. Unclip the front piece of fold latch wire frame from the brackets and
remove.
4. Place a 12” steel rule across the staple latch and check that it is flat. Adjust
as necessary by simply bending the latch.
5. With the steel rule still in place, measure the distance between it and the
fold latch at various points along its length, the two should be parallel with
each other, if not then adjust by bending the staple latch to suit.
6. Replace the fold latch wire frame and cover panel.
7. Hand feed various sets of paper into the machine and check that the staples
are parallel, if not the staple lid assembly will need adjusting (see below).
