Setting Fold Plates

1. Determine the fold type and paper size.
2. Refer to the guides on each side of the upper and lower fold plates and set each one to correspond with
the desired fold type and paper size.
3. To adjust the fold stops, loosen the two thumbscrews, slide the fold stop up or down to the correct posi-
tion and tighten the thumbscrews. The fold stop notch should be centered on the white line matching the
selected fold type and paper size.
Note: To process a Half Fold, set the upper fold plate stop to the proper position then remove the lower
fold plate, rotate it 180
