PLUG-IN PERFORATOR
FITTING PERFORATER BLADES
The plug in perforator unit is used for perforating scoring and when folding card cover stock.
Remove the second fold plate and fit the catch tray in position by hooking it over the opening
for the second fold plate. The plug in perforator unit then locates the same as the fold plate and
again, take care not to twist when fitting into position. You may need to turn the hand wheel
and push the perforator unit inwards to engage the drive gear.
For all applications, the unit is set on the bench using the scale to indicate positions of the
blades and hubs. It is important to spread the hubs evenly across the width of the work to
reduce the risk of paper jams.
When perforating or scoring without folding, the first fold plate must be removed and replaced
with the second fold plate. Ensure that the tilt is at zero and set the second fold plate to deflect.
The perforator blades are split into two matching halves and are fitted to the upper hubs as
shown in the drawing using the four screws supplied.
A hardened anvil is fitted to the lower hub as shown in the drawing also using the four screws
supplied. Again the anvils are made from matching halves. Note - Do not mix matching halves
of blades or anvils
Important - THE PERFORATOR BLADES ARE VERY SHARP AND GREAT CARE
MUST BE TAKEN WHILST HANDLING.
