2 Installation
2.1 Unpacking
Carefully unpack the Model 1811 folder and
accessories. Place the Model 1811 on a flat,
level surface where it is to be used. It is
necessary to have a clear area at the exit end
of the folder to place the exit ramp. Place all
of the packing material back in the shipping
box and store the box for any future shipment
of the Model 1811. Inspect the Model 1811
and all accessories for shipping damage. If
any damage is found, contact the carrier
immediately.
2.2 Feed Table
The Model 1811 is equipped with a variable-
position, non-removable feed table and
extension tray. When not in operation the
extension tray can be folded on top of the
machine for easy storage. The Feed Table
should never be run with the extension tray
in the storage position.
2.3 Exit Conveyor
Align the tabs on the exit ramp with the
corresponding slots on the conveyor and drop
the exit ramp intoplace (See Figure 4).
2.4 Fold Tables
Step #1: Slide the front slot opening of the
fold table onto the inner set of pins (closest
to the folding rollers). See Figure 5, and
Figures 11 for details.
Step #2: Lower the fold table onto the outer
set of pins. The pins must be fully set in the
slots. Repeat Steps 1 & 2 for the 2nd Fold
Table installation.
Note: 2nd Fold Table Assembly can be
installed in two directions. The open end
towards the rollers will produce a double -

fold and the closed end (with silver deflector) will
produce a single fold.
2.5 Paper Guides
The Paper Guides for the 1811 are self-
centering. To adjust the Paper Guides,
loosen both thumbscrews slightly and slide
the Paper Guides to the desired position.
For best results, load a stack of paper and
adjust the Paper Guides up to the paper.
Once the Paper Guides are in the correct
position, snug the thumbscrews down to
prevent the paper Guides from moving.
Snug the thumbscrews
down to prevent the
paper Guides from
moving. DO NOT over
tighten the thumbscrews
(See Figure 6).
The
should
slide between the Paper
Guides without binding,
and at the same time,
there should be very
little play between the
Paper Guides and the
paperstack.
2.6 Setting Fold Styles
Before attempting to set-up a fold, you should
familiarize yourself with the seven designated
fold style icons provided on the rulers located
on each fold table (Figure 10). These icons are
arranged in columns on the feed table rulers
that represent the seven most common paper
sizes (Figure 8 andFigure 9).
The icons in each column are color coded
for clarity. NOTE: 8 1/2 X 11" = Green, 8 1/2
X 14" = Purple, 11 x 17" = Gold, A3 (297 x
420mm) = Pink, A4 (210 x 297) = Blue.

2.7 Skew Adjustment
The Skew Adjustment controls the angle at
which the paper is fed into the rollers. Skew
adjustment is factory set to be square with the
rollers and should not need adjusting. Skew
adjustment is only necessary when the paper
is not cut squarely or has irregular edges.
If the paper is not folded square (corners of
the paper stick out once folded), rotate the
Skew Adjustment Thumb Wheel a small
amount clockwise or counter-clockwise. The
direction the wheel is rotated is dependent on
the skew direction. See Figure 1 for the
location of the Skew Adjustment Wheel.
2.8 LoadingPaper
Depress down and hold the Feed Table by
pushing down on the top of one of the Paper
Guides. Place a maximum of 300 sheets of
paper
stack
20# paper (lesser amounts of thicker paper)
be
able
to
between the Paper Guides, and push the
stack of paper under the Feed Wheel. The
paper stack must rest straight and square
against the Feed Bridge (See Figure 7). Once
the paper stack is correctly positioned, release
the Feed Table and allow Feed Table to lift the
paper stack up against the Feed Wheel.
2.9 MovingtheFoldTablePaper Stops
In order to successfully set the fold tables,
you must know both the size of the paper
being folded and the type of fold desired. After
you've determined the type of fold desired,
identify its icon on each fold table (Figure 8
andFigure 9).
Loosen the fold stop thumbscrew on either
fold table, and using the rulers to gauge the
fold length, move the fold stop until it aligns
with the desired fold style icon or measurement,
andthen retightenthethumbscrew.
Repeat the process for the other fold table.
Make sure the proper colored icon is used for
theappropriate papersize.
Special Notes - The second fold table must
be removed, rotated 180°, and reinserted for
Half Fold regardless of paper size.
