Pin Addition
The process for adding punch pins is the same as pin removal except
that pins are added and not removed once the pressure bar is off.
When replacing punch pins make certain that the pins are completely
seated against the pin retainer prior to reattaching the pressure bar.

Die Stop Position
On some of the Professional Puncher die sets there is an adjustable
die stop which is used to re-center the die set for certain sheet sizes,
as shown in Figure 8.7. For die sets without a die stop knob there is no
die stop position adjustment necessary.
For units with a die stop knob, the die stop must be set to the correct
position or the punched holes will not be centered on the sheet. The
common paper sizes are shown on the die stop handle label below the
die stop knob, for the uncommon paper sizes please refer to Table 8.2.
Position A is when the arrow on the die stop knob points down towards
the handle and lines up with the lower arrow on the die stop handle
label. Position B is when the arrow on the die stop knob points to the
side and lines up with the side arrow on the die stop handle label. (See
Figure 8.7)
To change the die stop position first remove the die from the machine
and place on a flat stable surface. While holding the die in a stable
position push down on the die stop knob until the knob is free to rotate.
Then turn the knob until the arrow on the knob lines up with the desired
arrow on the die stop handle label. Once the arrows line up, release
the die stop knob making sure that the metal die stop on the bottom
fully seats against the die plate.

Die Set Maintenance
The die sets must be periodically oiled to maintain proper functionality
and prevent premature failure of the die set. The die set should be
oiled and inspected every 250K cycles or sooner. If the paper edge
near the punched hole is torn, lubricate the die set pins and felt pad.
To lubricate die set pins that do not have felt pads:
1. Apply a drop (0.05 ml) of 3-IN-ONE or high quality light
machine oil directly to the pins.
2. Depress the top portion of the die set so that the pins protrude
from the bottom plate.
3. Wipe clean, leaving a light coat of oil on them.
4. Wipe up any oil that remains on the top of the plates
To lubricate die set pins that have felt pads:
1. Lubricate with 3-IN-ONE oil or a high quality light machine oil.
2. Apply a 1/8" (3 mm) bead of oil lightly along the length of the
felt pad [1], but do not over saturate.
3. Do not use spray lubricants because they tend to dry up
quickly and leave a sticky residue.
Oil from the die may blemish the first few punched sheets after oil
has been applied. Run test punched copies until clean copies can
be made.
Figure 8.8 Lubrication
End of Punch Die Life
If a die set is at the end of its life it will tend to cause paper jams due to
hanging paper chips. This is a result of die plate wear and not pin
wear, which cannot be corrected. When this occurs, the die set must
be replaced with a new one. Attempting to replace or sharpen pins will
not correct the issue and therefore is not recommended.
Die Set Handling
There is a chipset located in the die set which should not be touched
during die set handling. Do not attempt to touch the chipset reader
located inside the machine as this may result in damage to the punch.
