  • Page 3: Setup And Operation

    Functional Test Before attempting to process forms with the 3800, perform the following functional test. Make sure the power switch is in the off position and set the depth control indicator (7) to “Open” (at the “Open” position, the upper cutter shaft should be at the highest point). To adjust the depth control, loosen the depth control locking knob (6).
  • Page 4 Loosen the depth control locking knob (6) and turn the control knob (7) so the indicator aligns with “Open” on the depth control scale plate. The two accessory shafts should now be at their maximum open position. Raise the acrylic safety cover (13) to gain access to the perforator wheels and backup hubs (figure 3).
  • Page 5 b. Rotate the depth control knob (7) counterclockwise one line on the depth control scale. Tighten the depth control locking knob (6). Turn the speed control on low and run a few test sheets through the machine. d. Check and repeat steps 2 and 3 if necessary until correct perforation is achieved. Setting the depth control perforation is too shallow: Loosen the depth control lock knob b.
  • Page 6: Troubleshooting

    Note – Each accessory shaft can be removed from the machine so accessories can be added, removed, or changed. The upper shaft and guide fingers must be removed prior to removing the lower shaft. Loosen the depth control lock knob (6) and turn the depth control knob (7) to the maximum open position.
  • Page 7 Caution – Never use detergent or soap and water on the main rubber (black) rollers as it will ruin the rollers and void your warranty. During normal operation, the main rubber rollers will become coated with ink, toner, lint and various other contaminants.
