•Keep fingers and hands away from score blades, perf blades, and rubber
rollers.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
The PERFMASTER DASH is aprecision machine. It is very important to keep it free of
excessive dust, dirt and foreign matter. We recommend that you keep the machine
covered when not in use.
BEARINGS/BUSHINGS: The bearings are sealed roller bearings and are designed to
be self lubricating, however dirt and dust can get into them causing clogging and dirt
build up. It is recommended to oil them daily under heavy use or monthly under light
use. The Bushings are Bronze and do require lubrication more frequently. Oil these
once aweek under heavy use.
RUBBER ROLLERS: These tend to harden when exposed, and in use, use “water to
clean them before and after each use. This will increase the life and require less
replacement. “Do not use Blanket Wash or Other Cleaners.”
REMOVEABLE SCREWS: When these show signsof wear or stripping, replace as soon
as possible. If these strip or hollow out they can be costly to remove. If you do keep
your Perfmaster DASH clean and in top condition, it will give you years of service.

PAPER STOP ASSEMBLIES
INSTALLING THEPAPER STOPS
There are 3different paper stops. 2will have bends and 1will be straight. The
straight paper stop is the rear or back paper stop. The other 2are theright and left
paper stopsand should be positioned as shown below. Theyhold there position using a
magnet which makes it easy for adjustment. The positions for the paper stops will
change for each individual job. If the paper stops are set to close,the paper will hit
them as it exits the machine and will cause apaper jam. If they are set too loose the
paper will stack in an unorganized manner. Getting the position correct is imperative to
smooth operation of the machine.
