4.6 Back Gauge Assembly
The Back Gauge assembly pauses the paper just as the edge has entered the die set.
Working properly, the sheet will pause only long enough for the holes to be punched
correctly. The Back Gauge assembly also controls the paper chad falling into the chad
bin, significantly reducing the amount of that could flow through the paper path. Some
chad falls outside the chad bin and should be cleaned up with a vacuum cleaner
during each servicing.
Warning: Disconnect the StreamPunch Pro from its power source before removing
the Back Gauge assembly. Failure to observe this warning can result in severe injury
or death and damage the punch.
Procedure
Remove Back Gauge assembly to clean and service the solenoid or to replace the
Back Gauge. This procedure also allows the removal of the Punch Module.
To repair or replace the Back Gauge, separate the StreamPunch Pro from the printer
and finisher and then remove the rear cover. See "Preparing the StreamPunch Pro for
Service" on page 4.1.
