Turn main switch (#11) to position “|” (on), in order to begin operation. The main switch can be
sued as an EMERGENCY SWITCH, which stops the machine immediately.
Safety lock with key (#6)
The key can be removed to prevent unauthorized use. To activate the machine, turn key 45º to the
right.
Re-set button (#12)
Before the knife can be activated on models IDEAL 4810 and IDEAL 5210, the re-set button has
to be pressed to re-establish the “ready to cut” status of the machine. The yellow pilot light in the
viewing window (#14) comes on and indicates, that the machine s is ready for use. The model
IDEAL 4810-11 does not have a re-set button.
Two-hand operation
Only by pressing the right and the left push button switch (#5) simultaneously (within half a
second), can a cut be executed. Keep push buttons (#5) depressed until the knife has reached it
lowest position. As soon as the push buttons have been released, the knife returns automatically to
its home position.
Automatic knife return
If a cut cycle is interrupted by releasing both push button switches (#5), the knife returns
automatically to its home position. IF only one of push buttons is released, the knife stops in the
reached position until the second push button is released as well.
Spindle clamp system
The clamp holds the paper pile in position while cutting. The paper clamp (#15) is lowered and
raised by turning the hand wheel (#19).
By turning the wheel clockwise: the clamp is lowered.
By turning the wheel counter clockwise: the clamp is raised.
The paper is clamped by tightening the hand wheel (#19) with a quick pull to the right.
IMPORTANT Only by clamping the paper pile securely is precise cut guaranteed.
Back gauge (#22)
The back gauge is spindle-guided for easy and precise adjustment with the crank (#3).
When squaring the paper pile avoid using excessive force against the back gauge otherwise the
back gauge could be knocked fractionally out of the pre-set dimension and the guide piece of the
back gauge is subjected to unnecessary wear.
Back gauge crank (#3)
The crank is indirectly connected with the back gauge spindle. The crank is engaged by applying
slight pressure toward the machine. The connection is released by pulling the crank towards the
operator. If the crank is disengaged, the back gauge setting cannot be changed inadvertently.
