GBC SureBind System 1 [6/6] Operating instructions

4.0 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

4.3 Binding

1. Begin the binding process by pulling the pressure bar toward you and lowering

it on top of the document. The indicator light will illuminate.

2. Pull the handle down in a uniform, smooth motion and leave it down. (Don't

apply pressure, the handle will remain down until you lift it.)

3. Approximately 9 seconds after the handle is pulled down, the indicator light

will go out, indicating the binding process is complete.

4. Lift the handle to its starting position, raise the pressure bar, and remove the

bound document.

NOTE: The waste tray should be emptied frequently to assure that the excess

binding pins and punch scraps do not accumulate and cause a malfunction.

NOTE: When the pressure bar is placed on the document, the machine is

automatically ready to deliver electrical current to the ribbon heater. When the

handle is lowered, the ribbon heater turns "on" as it starts to move, and turns

"off" as it finishes its cycle. A machine warm-up period is not necessary since

warm-up is instantaneous. The machine remains completely "off" except during

the binding operation.
