  • Page 4: Introduction

    Introduction The Model Number 7 Book Stitcher is a combination light and heavy duty stitcher designed to staple both flat and saddle work ranging in thickness from a few sheets to 7/8" (22.2mm). The recommended wire sizes to be used on the Number 7 Stitcher are as follows: round wire - 28 to 24 and flat wire - 20 x 24, 20 x 25, and 21 x 25.
  • Page 5: Operating Adjustments

    Operating Adjustments The quality and quantity of work that can be stitched on the Number 7 machine is dependent upon the operator making the various operating adjustments as accurately as possible. The following illustrated instructions and information are provided so that the operator will clearly understand how to make the required operating adjustments.
  • Page 6: Opening And Closing The Stitcher Head Door

    Stitcher Head Door (Figure 2) To open the stitcher head Door, press the Door Latch (1) to the right, thereby releasing the Latch from the Latch Catch and permitting the Door to swing to an open position (shown by the dotted line in Figure 2).

    then turn the handwheel to the left, raising the Gauge just far enough to permit work to be withdrawn from between the Gauge and the Gauge shelf. After withdrawing the sample work, turn the handwheel to the right until the Gauge has returned to the point at which it clamped the work.
  • Page 8: Wire Threading

    WARNING Always disconnect the power supply before making any adjustments or servicing the stitcher. Wire Threading (Figure 5) Open the Stitcher Head Door (1). Pass the wire from the Spool over the Wire Guide Spring (2), threading the wire between the Guide Studs on the Guide Spring and through the Oiler Felt in the Retainer (not shown).
  • Page 9: Wire Straightening

    WARNING Always disconnect the power supply before making any adjustments or servicing the stitcher. Wire Straightening (Figure 6) In order to insure continuous operation of the Stitcher, it is important that the wire when being fed into the Swivel, enters in as close to a straight-vertical line as possible.
  • Page 10: Adjustments And Settings

Loosen but do not remove the two Wire Feed Adjustment Rack Screws (1) permitting the Adjustment Rack (2) to be moved up or down.
  • Page 11: Adjusting Both Legs

    Adjusting Both Legs (Figure 8) If the staple legs are centered but are too long or too short, adjust amount of wire feed as follows: Loosen the Adjustment Lever Eccentric Bushing Screw (1) sufficiently to release the knurled Eccentric Bushing (2).

  • Page 13: Lubrication And Cleaning

    Lubrication (Figure 10) Figure 10 - Lubrication Points Use a S.A.E. Number 10 oil for lubricating the Number 7 Stitcher. Machines that are in constant operation should be lubricated daily. Machines that are operated periodically should be lubricated just prior to running a job. Usually only a drop of oil is required at each point of lubrication in the Stitcher Head.
  • Page 14 After lubricating the machine, wipe off any excessive oil. • Oil hole in the Wire Feed Slide (1). • Oil hole in the Wire Cutter Holder (2). • Oil hole in the Swivel Operating Cam Roll Stud (3). • Moving parts in this area (4).
  • Page 15: Ordering And Replacing Spare Parts

    Removing the Wire Cutters (Figure 11) The Wire Cutters have four cutting edges, each of which may be used by reversing the ends and position of the Cutters in the Cutter Holder. To remove and replace the Cutters proceed as fol- lows.
  • Page 16 Removing the Wire Grip (Figure 12) The Fixed Wire Grip (1) has two saw-toothed gripping surfaces permitting the reversing of the Grip when one side shows signs of wear. To remove and replace the Grip, proceed as follows. Disengage the Moveable Wire Grip Spring (2) from the Moveable Wire Grip (3).
  • Page 17 Removing the Driver (Figure 13) The Driver is double-ended and when one end is worn or damaged, it can be reversed thereby providing a new driving surface. To remove the Driver, proceed as follows. Set the Stitcher for maximum thickness work. (refer to the paragraph on page 2).
  • Page 18: Clutch-Brake Maintenance

    Clutch-Brake Maintenance WARNING Always disconnect the power supply before making any adjustments or servicing the stitcher This stitcher is equipped with a solenoid actuated, continuous trip, wrap spring, clutch-brake unit. It is a dependable device that seldom needs service, but should a malfunction occur, the following information will serve as a service and trouble shooting guide for maintenance of this unit.
  • Page 19 Clutch and Brake Springs With the brake engaged (full limit of output), the input hub should be free to rotate by hand. With the clutch engaged, the input and output hubs should rotate together. If the unit does not rotate in either of these modes, the clearance between the hubs of the unit on the shaft may have been disturbed or damaged.
  • Page 20 Disassembly When disassembling the Clutch-Brake unit, always mark the Spring Tang locations with reference to which slots they go in if the same Springs are to be used in re-assembly. To disassemble the Clutch-Brake unit it will first be necessary to remove the Drive Pulley from the stitcher by removing the V-belt and Pulley Washer (7679) and then by disconnecting the Anchor Strap (7680) from the Clutch Plate.
  • Page 21 pick up next slot. Repeat this step until the .38" to .50" specification is achieved. Assemble the Retaining Ring to the Output Shaft at the Input Hub end (the smooth surface facing the Input Hub). Check end play between the Input Hub and the Retaining Ring with a feeler gauge. There should be.002 to .003 end play on the Input Hub.
  • Page 22 Lubrication The clutch-brake unit is designed with bearing parts made from sintered metal that have been impregnated with oil and normally do not need to be re-lubricated. In cases where there is excessive duty, or the environment is such that it may "wick-out" oil, wash off oil, or fill the clutch with foreign matter, the unit may be re-oiled or flushed out with minimal or no disassembly by using a light bearing oil such as Shell Bearing Infusion Oil #33.
  • Page 23: Troubleshooting

    Troubleshooting (Formed Staples) The quality and quantity of work that can be produced with the Number 7 Stitcher is dependent upon the operator making all adjustments as accurately as possible, and carefully maintaining the machine. The cause of staple imperfections usually can be traced to inaccurate settings and adjustments or normal wear of moving parts.
  • Page 24 : Bent Crown PROBLEM : The wrong wire size is being used for the job being stitched. The SOLUTION thickness adjustment setting could be incorrect or the Supporter is retracting too easily. Check to make sure the correct wire size is being used (refer to page 3). Check the work thickness adjustment setting (refer to page 6).
