How to bind

Count pages in document (fig.1)

Include any cover sheets that you are using in this
count. Add 2 to your final count for each cover sheet
selected (4 for every heavy-duty or semi-rigid cover
sheet).
Select comb which fits your document (fig.2)

Use the table to choose a suitable comb size. Please
note that this guide is based on 80gsm paper.
The sheet capacity of combs will vary depending
on the type and thickness of the cover sheets you
have chosen. If in doubt select the next comb up in
capacity.

Insert the binding comb next to the white positional
arrow on the machine, behind the metal comb
support fingers, with the open side of the comb
pointing upwards.
Note: If using GBC ProCombs™ the white arrow on
your comb should align to the white arrow on the
machine.
Open comb by turning lever towards you (fig.4)

The coloured arrows adjacent to the opening comb
act as a guide as to how far to open in order to allow
punched sheets to be easily inserted.
Note: If using GBC ProCombs™ the coloured line
on your comb should align to the coloured arrows on
the machine for faster binding.
