The Switch Panel The Switch Panel houses the Compressor switch, System switch, and an industry standard Emergency Stop switch which will stop all power going to the machine when activated.
DigiFold Pro The Switch Panel Features on the Switch Panel System switch When activated the system switch will operate the motors in order to begin the creasing sequence. Compressor switch Allows the operator to switch off the compressor unit in order to utilise the machine to manually feed sheets.
Operating the DigiFold Pro Adjusting the Paper Gate Set the height of the Paper Gate to approximately two thicknesses of paper, by turning the disc j. An excessive gap is a most likely cause of double sheet feeding. This setting is only intended as a guide, for instance, sheets with an upward curl will require this setting to be increased. J TWO THICKNESSES OF PAPER WARNING. DO NOT ADJUST THE PAPER GATE WHILE THE MACHINE IS RUNNING OR THE SUCTION DRUM MAY BECOME DAMAGED.
DigiFold Pro Operating the DigiFold Pro Setting the Vacuum Bleed Situated on the front of the feed table, the Vacuum Bleed Knob is used to allow more control of the suction on the vacuum drum. When light weight paper is being fed through the machine turn the knob clockwise to reduce the possibility of marking, or damage to the leading edge of the paper. Setting the Adjustable Side Lay Place the paper stack on to the loading table and slide up to the fixed side lay and paper Gate.
Operating the DigiFold Pro Setting the positions of drive wheels and hubs It is important that the drive wheels and drive hubs, on the roller shafts, are arranged across the width of the media being creased; this is done to ensure that the media is accurately driven and supported through the rollers. A suggested layout, when Folding, is shown below (see FIG 15.1). The suggested layout, when perfing, is different, and is shown on page 44 (see FIG 38.1).

Operating the DigiFold Pro The gap settings (Gap 1, Gap 2 & Gap 3) can then be adjusted by rotating the Roller Gap Set Knobs (see FIG 10.1 on page 10). IMPORTANT. When setting roller gaps, you must first adjust the gap to a value greater than that required and then decrease the value to the required setting. (Do not set the gap, from a value lower than that required). PROCEDURE. (i) Measure the thickness of the sheet using a Digital Vernier Calliper. (ii) Set roller GAP 1 to the vernier reading.
DigiFold Pro Operating the DigiFold Pro Setting the Blade Tilt Mechanism The blade tilt mechanism has been designed to compensate for when the creasing position on the sheet is not square. This could be due to an inaccuracy in the media or if the blade tilt mechanism has been incorrectly set. The mechanism will be set to zero (square) when the machine is supplied. The Blade Tilt Mechanism can be adjusted if necessary by rotating the Blade Tilt Knob (see FIG10.1 on page 10).

DigiFold Pro Operating the DigiFold Pro SET BY POSITION IMPORTANT NOTES. 1. If the fold is too near, or on the center line of the crease; the fold will try to fold diagonally across the crease profile and pull the fold out of square to the paper. The best fold squareness is achieved when the fold is not on the center line of the crease, it should be to one side of the crease center line as shown below.

DigiFold Pro Replacing Blade Sets 13. Refit the Sheet Guide Assembly 14. Close the top cover 15. Switch the machine on and test the crease for form. The following Blade sets are supplied with the Digifold 5000P as standard. Standard Blade set Part number 176-213-02 Consisting of a standard blade and anvil, pre-set for your machine. Narrow Blade set Part number 176-213-01 Consisting of a standard blade and a narrow anvil, pre-set for your machine. NOTE.
Perforating Once the machine is set-up, the Machine can be used to perforate or crease. Notes 1. Perforating and creasing can be carried out simultaneously. However, if any adjustment is made to the roller tilt mechanism in order to compensate for the perforation line being ’out of square’, this may effect the accuracy of the crease. If this occurs creasing and perforating must be carried out as separate operations. 2.
DigiFold Pro Perforating All of the blades and anvils are supplied with fixings. *Perforator stripper Standard Part Number 177-05-01 *It is recommended that for multiple perforations, a separate perforator stripper is used for every perforating blade set fitted in the creasing unit. Setting the machine 1. Turn the mains supply to the machine ‘off’. 2. Open the perforator assembly to get access to the drive wheels and hubs. 3.
Perforating 12. Slide the drive hub towards the perforating drive wheel until there is a clearance of 0.5mm (0.020”). 13. To prevent damage to the blades or the anvils, do not force the drive wheel against the hub. 14. Fix the perforator stripper adjacent to the drive wheel and blade as shown. 15. Operate the machine and test the perforations for form. It is important that the drive hubs are arranged evenly across the width of the paper in order to reduce the risk of jamming.
DigiFold Pro Removing Paper Jams Removing Paper Jams In the event of a paper jam occurring, whilst running the machine, follow the steps described below to allow access to remove the jammed paper. 1. Unlock and lower the delivery unit, open the top cover and the perforator unit; see FIG 39.1 below. 2. If the paper is jammed in the fold rollers; try to rotate the top fold roller, using both hands. Position the thumbs under the tie bar and spread the fingers out above the tie bar.
