DESCRIPTION OF OPERATING
CONTROLS
@ Knife Lever
Due to the optimal lever action, the IDEAL
3905 (15%") manual enables cutting
without effort. A sharp knife is important
for best performance.
After each cutting operation the knife lever
has to be returned to its top position until
the knife lever is locked.
@ Knife Locking Device
The knife locking device secures the knife
in its top position. A cutting operation can
only be carried through when the hand
guard is in the down position and the
locking device is released.
Caution: Do not place hands or fingers
under blade if knife lever is not locked.
@ Knife
Made of high quality steel.
@ Cutting Stick
Made of PE, exchangable. Can be used
two times on each side.
© Hand Guard
The hand guard must be lowered before
each cutting operation. Only then the
locking device can be released. The knife
guard can only be reopened when the
knife lever is locked in the top position.
DO NOT under any circumstances, dis-
assemble or make the hand guard in-
operable.
© Flick action clamping system
For holding the paper pile which has to
be cut.
Hand lever to the right:
Flick action clamping system open.
Hand lever to the left:
Flick action clamping system closed, ready
to cut.
@ Cover
Attached to the machine with two screws.
Disassemply only in case of knife change
or maintenance.
Knife adjustment
The knife can be adjusted without the knife
being loosened by using the adjustment
screw (8).
Turn to the left (+):
Knife adjustment downwards.
Turn to the right (+):
Knife adjustment upwards.
Max. adjustment approx. 2 mm.
Please note: A knife which is adjusted too
deeply does not only damage the cutting
stick, but the knife itself. Optimal adjust-
ment: when the last sheet is cut accurately.
@ Back Gauge Crank
The crank is indirectly connected with the
back gauge. Connection is made by a
slight push of the crank toward the ma-
chine. The connection is released when
pulling the crank towards the operator.
Turn to the right:
Back gauge moves towards the knife.
Turn to the left:
Back gauge moves away from the knife.
The scale behind the crank serves for fine
adjustment of the back gauge. The figures
"0-9" show in an enlarged form the mm of
the side gauge scale. "O" means a whole
cm, "1-9" the corresponding mm.
The exact adjustment of the size is always
done in a way that the back gauge pushes
paper toward the front.
Back Gauge
Operation via the crank. For adjustment
to the desired cutting size and for exact
parallel placing of the paper pile to be cut.
Do not use the back gauge for straight-
ening the pile, as this will cause the gauge
to move away from the adjusted measure-
ment and be inaccurate.
@ Side Gauge with Scale
In mm/cm and inch. For rectangular plac-
ing of the paper pile. The indicator on the
back gauge shows the measurement,
which is adjusted on the scale of the side
gauge. Fine adjustment is done via the
mm scale of the scale ring ©.
( Stand
Made of steel.
Standard equipment of model 3905 U.
OPERATION
@ The knife lever @ is locked in its top posi-
tion.
@ Bring hand guard © up. Push the paper
pile into the machine from the front and
place it against the back gauge and
along the side gauge @ on the left.
@ Push the back gauge crank @) toward the
cutter to engage, and then turn the crank
handle clockwise to bring the back
gauge toward the knife until the paper
measurement is reached. With the help of
the fine adjustment ring, accurate measu-
rement can easily be reached.
Example: You want to adjust the size
29.7 cm (DIN A 4 vertical).
By means of the crank @ you move the
back gauge @ to the knife until the pointer
on the side gauge @ shows 30 cm. The
scale ring @) shows the figure "O". Now you
turn the crank by 3 graduation marks to the
right so that the figure "7" is shown beyond
the mark. The size 29.7 cm (DIN A 4) is now
adjusted exactly.
@ Release the back gauge crank @), so that
the unintentional movement of the back
gauge can be prevented.
@ Throw the lever of the flick action clamping
system ©) from the right to the left. When
the flick action clamping device touches
the paper pile, apply quick pressure to the
handie and then let go. The paper pile is
now secure.
@ Bring down the hand guard ©.
@ Release the knife lock © and bring down
the knife lever © using both hands. When
the cut is complete, move the knife lever to
its top position until it locks.
@ Release the hand lever of the flick action
clamping system ©. Lift the hand guard ©
upwards and take the paper out of the
cutter.
REGRINDING
Please note: A dull knife does not cut accura-
tely. The cutting of heavy paper or cardboard
means sharpening the blade more often keep-
ing a spare knife on hand. Should you be
unable to find a local sharpening service,
contact your dealer or distributor.
CUTTING STICK
If the last sheet of paper pile does not cut
through, even though the knife adjustment
was already adjusted to the left (+), the cutting
stick @ should be changed, turned or rotated.
The cutting stick can be used two times on
each side — which means 8 changes per stick.
The cutting stick @ fits into the machine table
and can be lifted out with the help of a screw
driver.
Please note: When the cutting stick is chan-
ged, the knife has to be readjusted. A knife
which cuts too deeply, not only damages the
cutting stick, but the knife too.
LUBRICATION
From time to time all moving parts have to be
lubricated and oiled.
Before lubricating, these parts should be
cleaned from paper dust and old deposits of
oil and grease.
