4. To punch, press the PUNCH ~ button (D2). The
DocuBind TL300 punches up to 12 sheets of 20 Ib./80
gram paper at once. Punch only TWO clear covers at a
time to prevent jams and excessive wear.
5. If punch jams, de~s the RESET[Z]button (D3). Then
press the PUNCH~button (D2) again and remove paper
or covers from punch throat (it may be necessary to punch
several times in order to remove the paper). Repeat steps 1
to 4 with slightly less paper to avoid punch jams on addi-
tionallifts.
E. BINDING
1. Using the dial on the left side adjust the Wire Crimper to
correspond with the wire element size to be used.
2. Place the large loops of the wire element into the Wire
Holder as shown in figure 3. Be sure it is firmly secured
with the small loops facing toward you.
3. Place your punched pages face downward onto the small
loops of the wire element. Then place your front and back
covers face-to-face against each other. Place the covers
onto the wire element with the back cover first and the
inside of the front cover facing upward. This step ensures
that after crimping the seam of the wire element will be
hidden between the back cover and last page (figure 4).
4. Hold the wire element firmly at each end of the book and
remove it from the Wire Holder by sliding it to the left or
lifting it off. While firmly holding the wire element at each
end place the book with the open end of the wire face
down into the Wire Crimper. You can release the book
so it rests against the suppOr1 rack or continue to hold it
with one hand (figure 5).
5. To crimp the wire together pull the handle down toward
you completely until it goes no fur1her. Remove the book
and flip the front cover around to the front. Your
presentation is now complete.
F. EMPTY CHIP DRAWER
1 Empty Chip Drawer (F) after repeated use. Pull drawer
gently toward you to open. When putting back in, the
drawer will snap into place (see figure 6).
