SAFETY PROCEDURES BEFORE USE: Read through the owner’s manual. Follow instructions CAREFULLY. • NEVER use a wet area. Electric shock could occur. • • Use a GROUNDED outlet and a GROUNDED circuit. Do no use ungrounded equipment on the same circuit. Always use a dedicated line.
SETTING UP YOUR ACCUCREASER This machine is 99% ready to go when it arrives on your dock. There are only a few items that need to be put into position before it is ready to use. Those 2 items are below: DELIVERY TRAY ASSEMBLY INSTALLING THE DELIVERY TRAY...
PAPER STOP ASSEMBLIES INSTALLING THE PAPER STOPS Inside the box should be 3 paper stops (2 will have a bend & 1 will be straight). Place the straight paper stop in place. This is the back paper stop. (See Diagram) Place the 2 paper stops in position as show below.
MACHINE CONTROLS There is one switch on the Accucreaser the main power. Everything else is controlled by the Touch Screen. MAIN POWER On the operator side cover at the top on the right side is the main power button . This is the on and off power for the machine.
TOUCH SCREEN CONTROLLER THE TOUCH SCREEN CONSISTS OF FOUR SECTIONS: 1. Count Logo and Service Access 2. Perf Mode 3. Feeder Mode 4. Crease mode Touch Screen Operation When the machine is turned on the display may take up to 7 seconds for the home screen to display.
PERF MODE From the home screen press the perf mode button the perf mode screen will be displayed. Home: Takes you back to the home screen. Counter Reset: Resets the displayed counter to 0. Jog Left and Right: Slowly advances the rollers left or right. Batch Counter: Allows for stopping the machine after a batch number is reached.
FEEDER MODE Feed mode is the mode to run your Accucreaser Touch as a feeder into our CountCoat UV Coater. It runs much slower than the other modes giving the sheets enough spacing to move through the UV coater. Home: Takes you back to the home screen.
TRANSPORT AND VACUUM OPERATION The Run Button will start the Transport in any given mode. When pressed it will also turn the air portion of the pressure pump on. Press it again to stop the transport and turn of the pump. Each Mode has a timeout feature to preserve the life of the machine.
PROGRAMMING FOR CREASE MODE Half Fold: Press the Crease Mode Button > Half > Start Measuring > Physically Run a sheet through the machine for the sensor to measure > Accept > Run > Feed. EXAMPLE: Tri-Fold: Press the Crease Mode Button > Tri-Fold > Start Measuring > Physically Run a sheet through the machine for the sensor to measure >...
Gate Fold: Press the Crease Mode Button > More > Gate > Start Measuring > Physically Run a sheet through the machine for the sensor to measure > Accept > Run > Feed. EXAMPLE: Double Gate Fold: Press the Crease Mode Button > More > Double Gate > Start Measuring >...
Perfect Bind Single Hinge: Press the Crease Mode Button > More > Perfect Binding Score > Enter The Book Thickness > Single Hinge > Start Measuring > Physically Run a sheet through the machine for the sensor to measure > Accept > Run > Feed. EXAMPLE: Perfect Bind No Hinge: Press the Crease Mode Button >...
Saving Custom Crease Jobs: Press the Crease Mode Button > Custom > Enter In Distance For each Crease in mm > Save > Select Position to save in 1, 2, 3, or 4. Recalling Custom Crease Jobs: Press the Crease Mode Button > Custom > Recall >...
Batch Counter: Press the Batch Counter button from the run screen in any mode and it will take you to the Batch Count Screen. Press the Enter Batch Amount Button to enter in the number you want to run per batch. Press the Reset Batch Button to start from 0.
SETTING THE AUTOMATIC FEEDER For efficient Auto-feeding, the setting of the caliper to the vacuum wheel is very important. Use a piece of the stock to be run as a “feeler gauge”. Place a sheet under the feed wheels, turn the feed wheel adjustment screw (Counterclockwise to raise, clockwise to lower) so that the paper can slip freely under the wheels.
LOADING THE FEEDER Take the paper and load the feed tray. DO NOT OVER LOAD. The weight and size for the stock you are running will determine how much can be loaded in the feed rails. The paper should sit snug between the caliper and back stop. Do not pinch the paper as it will affect the feeding consistency.
CHECKING THE SENSORS 1. Turn machine power on and allow screen to turn on 2. There should be 2 lights on the sensor; a green indicating power is getting to the sensor and orange that is the reflecting signal. If both lights are not on there is a problem and must be fixed before you are able to run.
REMOVING THE PERF SHAFT (Changing the position of the lower assemblies) Turn the power off and unplug the machine. You may want to remove the upper assemblies before you begin to get them out of the way as the rollers are spring loaded and will give pressure on the lower rollers.
PERFORATING AND SCORING Your Accucreaser Touch will come equipped with 1 Perf and 1 Score assembly standard. Up to 4 perf or score assemblies can be used at the same time. Perf and Score assemblies require the corresponding Perf or Score lower hub assembly in order to function properly.
Page 25
Setting the Perf Blade When locating the perf blade to where you would like to perf you must make sure that you can move the lower assembly and upper assembly to the location you want to perf. This may require moving the rubber gripper wheels or other upper and lower assemblies.
SCORING Just as in setting the perforation on your machine setting the score may require you to move around gripper wheels and other assemblies in order to set up your score in the proper location. The score upper assembly will look similar to the perf upper assembly without a safety guard covering the blade.
FOLDING DIRECTION OF PAPER There is a correct and incorrect way to fold a creased paper. Following the diagram below will show you the correct direction the paper should be folded. CHANGING THE LOWER CREASE DIE The Lower crease die can easily be changed to accommodate thicker stocks by removing the non-operator side cover, slide the bar out and flip it over to use the wider die channel.
TROUBLE SHOOTING POWER DOES NOT TURN ON • 1. Check circuit breaker on rear panel. 2. Check outlet for power. TRANSPORT “LOCKS UP” AFTER CREASING • 1. Turn the crease bar over to wide groove. 2. Increase pressure of forwarding rollers by turn the shaft clockwise to increase the pressure.
