Perforating

Note:

The edge of the paper stop must lie exactly on the marking of the format selected. Always test the perforator on a piece of scrap paper before you use it on your real project. This will help you detect whether the holes are evenly distributed before starting.

  • The Perforation mechanism was given a protective layer of c oating before being packaged. Before use, perforate a few pieces of scrap npaper until there is no more residue to be seen.
  • It is easier to perforate plastic sheeting if a piece of paper is placed on either side and all pages are perforated together.
  1. Pull the lever of the perforating and binding device fully upwards. If the lever is not fully raised, the paper cannot be inserted as far as the stop and will not be perforated.
