CORRECTIVE ACTION
Debind to take the document apart. Rebind the
document being careful to place the small hole in

may need to be readjusted to ensure that the
document's holes line up with the receiving strip.

without paper. If the bind is good, no service call
is necessary.
Call your local Service Representative if you are
unable to locate the cause of the problem.
Remember this model is only designed to bind
up to 25mm (1").
Call your local Service Representative.
Check the rear power plug and the wall socket to
be sure that all connections are tight.

Try punching less paper at one time. It is
recommended that you punch only 25 sheets
2
of 80g/m (20lb bond) paper or four (4) sheets
of composition covers at one time. Punching
more than the recommended amount may
damage the punch.
Try punching less coated paper at one time.
If this problem occurs when you punch 25 sheets
2
of 80g/m (20lb bond) paper, you should contact
your local Service Technician.
Check punch area for jams (i.e. strip caught in
punch, pin caught, etc.). Run a receiving strip
along the inside of the punch area to loosen any
trapped material.
Adjust Punch Edge Guide by moving it to the left
or the right. Check punch alignment by folding
paper in half and making sure holes line up and
corners are square.
Push tray in and out until it pulls out freely. Empty
the Debris Tray more often.
Make sure you use a twisting motion when
cutting each rivet.
Make sure you insert the blade between the
strip and cover.
Change the razor blade in your Debinder Tool.
