Standard Folds; General Set Up - Hedman HF-400 Operating Manual

Standard Folds

Standard Folds
The scales on the HF-400 fold tables con-
tain symbols for the five most popular folds
and colored bands for the three most popu-
lar paper sizes. This makes it easy to adjust
the machine for these folds.
Only the simple controls at the top of the
HF-400 are needed to set up the machine.

To set up the HF-400:
1. Make initial length settings for the first and
second folds using the scales (17) and indi-
cators (38) (see page 15).
2. Load a few sheets of blank paper between the
paper guides on the feed table (see page 12).
3. Press the Start/Stop switch (18) to fold two
or three sheets.
4. Check that the fold is as desired.
5. Make fine adjustments in the fold length (see
page 16) and skew (see page 18). Test until
the fold is as desired.
6. Remove trial material, load the document
stack and turn on the switch.

NOTE
Before changing fold settings or mak-
ing fine adjustments, be sure the fold-
ing area of the HF-400 is cleared of all
sheets. Either:
• Let the feed area run out of paper.
• Press thumb or finger lightly on top
of the stack on the feed table while
the machine is running. (See illustra-
tion at the top of page 15.) Feeding
will stop and the machine will clear
itself. This allows repeated trials
without reloading paper each time.
