5 Adjustments

5.1 Paper guide
After disassembling or the paper got incorrect folded in its angle, the paper guides must be adjusted. This
provides an optimal fold quality.

Carry out two test folds (A4 paper, mode STD). Primarily use a single fold.

Check if the end of the paper is
coinciding folded.
If not:
Correct the paper angularity by turning
the adjustment knob (2) clockwise or
counter clockwise (See picture and
drawing).
Note:
Before turning the adjustment knob (2),
both paper guide locking screws (1) must
be loosen. After the adjustment, tighten
both paper guide locking screws, before
processing paper again.

Samples:
Take the folded paper out off the paper collector as it was fallen into. Decide on which side the
misalignment is located to:

1. Left hand side Turn clockwise.







2. Right hand side Turn counter clockwise.





Repeat this adjustment, as often, till the fold angularity is correct.

Remark:
Its not possible to receive a 100% coinciding fold. A difference of about 1mm from edge to edge
has to be accepted.

7 Maintenance / Cleaning

Clean the P 700 from paper dust.
Clean contamination on the intake or folding roller. Use printer roller agents.
Oil all plastic bearings especially those at the main folding rubber roller. Use SH15 oil.
Grease the pinion with Molykote DX Paste or equivalent grease.
Check correct alignment of the folds. Process some fold types.
Control total piece counter.
For plastic parts and rubber roller, we recommend application of commercial cleaning agent,
which is solvent free with antistatic qualities.
In general, cleaning agent as used for Printer and PC and office machines is suitable.
