Heating the document
The cover must be inserted into the binder so the
spine is in contact with the heating element (Fig.4).
The binding cycle will begin automatically and is
shown visually with LED lights.
After completion, the green light <<ready>> comes
on and at the same time an audible signal will be
heard. This audible signal will be repeated as long as
the document is left in the binding unit.
After the audible signal is heard, remove the
document immediately.
Note: if the document is left in the binding unit for
too long, the quality of binding could be affected.
The binding unit is now ready to receive the next
cover.
Allow the document to cool
and harden
Jog the complete document once firmly down its
spine. This ensures that every sheet is inserted into
the glue.
Hold the completed document in one hand and with
thumb and one finger, squeeze the back together
to ensure that the first and last sheets are properly
bound. This will also guarantee the correct U form of
the cover spine.
Place the bound document into the cooling rack
to allow adequate cooling. Should any sheets be
incorrectly bound please repeat the binding operation
(Fig.5).
