Stapling mechanism
• There are two the stapling units in the saddle kit, each being fixed to a specific position.
• Since the unit is for center stapling only, it is made up of the upper clincher portion and
the lower stapling portion. The copy set/stack moves through the space between the
upper and lower portions of the staplers.
• When stapling, the clincher portion moves downward to perform the stapling operation.
