D. Keeping Your Fastback® Binder Clean
Usually no maintenance is necessary for your binder, but if a strip jams, or
adhesive gets on the Fastback®, you might have to do a little cleaning.
1. Cleaning the Outside of Your Fastback® Binder
If the outside of your Fastback® starts to get dusty, clean the cover with a
damp cloth and mild detergent.
If there's adhesive on the inner book clamps (see figure 1), open the cover,
then wipe off the glue with a cotton rag dampened with the Citrus cleaning
solution. The glue should come right off.
2. Cleaning the Inside of Your Fastback® Binder
Cleaning the Platen
If a strip gets jammed or stuck to the platen, or if adhesive has melted onto
the platen, you'll need to clean it.
If you have time (about an hour), turn off the machine and let it cool
completely. When the platen is completely cool, the adhesive should peel
off with no trouble.
If you can't wait for the binder to cool, follow these steps:
a.
First put on the heat-protective glove. Since the platen can be
very hot, always wear this glove when working with the platen.
b.
Now open the cover to its full upright position (figure 24). The platen
is the teflon-coated plate that runs across the center of the unit (item B in
figure 24).
c.
To access the top of the platen, flip up the book rest (figure 22).
•
If the platen is hot, make sure you're wearing the heat-
protective glove, then wipe off any glue with a clean dry cotton cloth. Wipe
the surface lengthwise until it's clean.
Do not use the Citrus solution on the platen when the platen is hot!
NOTE:
•
If the unit has cooled, wipe off any glue with a cotton cloth
dampened in the Citrus cleaning solution. You can also peel the adhesive
off the upper side of the platen with your fingers (or a wooden instrument,
like an ice cream stick).
