Introduction The DeLuxe Stitcher M2 Book Stitcher is a combination light & heavy duty stitcher designed to staple both flat and saddle work ranging in thickness from a few sheets to 1/4" for 2601 heads, 5/16" (8mm) for G8 heads. The recommended wire sizes to be used on the M2 are as follows: 25 to 30 round wire for 2601 heads, 24 to 28 for G8 heads. The M2 is easily adjusted from saddle work to flat work by means of tilting the 5-1/2" (14cm) x 26" (66cm) work table.

Installation The M2 is a free standing, floor mounted, wire stitcher. The following parts must be assembled after shipment: work table, spool bracket, spool stud, wire spool, adjuster handwheel handle, and wire guide springs. The M2 can be lagged to the floor, if desired, after leveling. Thread the wire onto the head and make adjustments to wire length & straightness as described in the head Operation Manual.
Turning Machine Manually Always disconnect the power supply before making any adjustments or servicing the stitcher. ! WARNING (see above). Locate the actuator assembly on the wrap spring clutch and push the actuator to pivot it away from the control collar cam, releasing the brake. The machine will rotate one revolution when the large drive pulley is turned manually in the direction of the arrow on the pulley (top of pulley toward front of machine).
Figure 2 - Work Thickness Adjustment If the Machine is operated on work thicker than is set to handle, damage will result and the Stitcher will not operate properly.
Raising or Lowering the Clinchers (See Figure 3) Always disconnect the power supply before making any adjustments or servicing the stitcher. ! WARNING If staples are being loosely clinched, requiring that the clinchers be raised or lowered, proceed as follows: Remove the clincher guard (1) . Loosen the clincher adjustment binder screw (2). Rotate the clincher adjustment screw (3) to raise or lower the clincher points as needed. Retighten the binder screw (2) and attach the clincher guard (1).
Maintenance To insure continuous operation of the M2 Stitcher, the operator should be sure that the machine is regularly lubricated and carefully maintained. The operator should periodically inspect all moving parts for signs of wear and, when required, replace the worn parts. The following instructions are provided so that the operator will understand how to lubricate the machine, and how to adjust the clutch.

Clutch-Brake Maintenance Always disconnect the power supply before making any adjustments or servicing the stitcher. ! WARNING This stitcher is equipped with a solenoid actuated, continuous trip, wrap spring clutch-brake unit. It is a dependable device and seldom needs service. But should a malfunction occur, the following information is a service and troubleshooting guide for maintenance of this unit. Actuator The actuator is a simple, straight-forward mechanical linkage.
Clutch and Brake Springs With the brake engaged (full limit of output), the input hub should be free to rotate by hand. With the clutch engaged, the input and output hubs should rotate together. If the unit does not rotate in either of these modes, the clearance between the hubs of the unit on the shaft may have been disturbed or damaged. See Assembly/Disassembly instructions for re-adjusting.
Disassembly (See Figure 5) Always disconnect the power supply before making any adjustments or servicing the stitcher ! WARNING To disassemble the clutch-brake unit (124) it will first be necessary to remove the drive pulley (125) from the stitcher by removing the V-belt (30), retaining ring (51), and clutch anchor screw (27). Disconnect the ground and solenoid wires, and swing the anchor strap (24) clear of the drive pulley assembly and slide it off of the drive shaft.
Note: At this point it may be necessary to reselect one (1) of the nine (9) Control Collar slots for the Brake Spring Tang (release Actuator Lever, remove Clutch Spring Tang from slot, then move Control Collar axially toward the Input Hub end and rotate it opposite to the drive direction to pick up the next slot). Continue to select Control Collar slots until the 0.38" to 0.50" specification is achieved. Assemble Retaining Ring to Output Shaft at the Input Hub end (smooth surface facing Input Hub).
Lubrication The clutch-brake unit is designed with the bearing parts made from sintered metal that has been impregnated with oil and normally do not need to be re-lubricated. In cases where there is severe duty, the unit may be re-oiled or flushed out with minimal or no disassembly by using a light bearing oil as used in manufacture (Shell Bearing Infusion Oil #33).
