If the GPM 450 verSA is used correctly, it is a very safe machine. However, if used incorrectly, it can
be dangerous. When operating the machine, the operator is responsible for their own personal
safety. The manufacturer may not be held liable for any personal injury or damage to the machine
caused by use or operation at variance with these Operating Instructions. The owner of the machine
is responsible for the machine being operated, maintained and serviced only by qualified personnel.
The machine design is in compliance with international standards and regulations for the
construction of machine tools. For the machines exported to the European Economic Area (EEA), the
customer will obtain a "Declaration of Conformity" together with the accompanying technical
documentation for the machine - Operating Instructions. Also, the machine bears the CE marking.
The CE marking on the machinery signifies that the product complies with the technical requirements
specified in all the legal regulations that apply to the machinery and that require or allow this
marking. This marking also signifies that a specified procedure was followed during the assessment of
the stated conformity.
The manufacturer certifies by means of the “Declaration of Conformity” that the machinery
concerned complies with the requirements of Directive 98/37/CE of the European Parliament and of
the Council and those of the harmonized technical standards. Directive 98/37/CE of the European
Parliament and of the Council is a document defining the generally applicable basic requirements for
health protection and safety of machinery operated at the user’s facility within the EEA.
Directive 98/37/CE of the European Parliament and of the Council does not apply to the machinery
exported to countries outside the EEA.
The customer will receive the accompanying technical documentation for the machine –Operating
Instructions. The manufacturer hereby requests that the user trains its staff accordingly in order to
ensure comprehensive safety as directed by the relevant laws, standards and regulations, these
Operating Instructions and other documents.
The machine is intended for work in automatic cycles.
The machine operator monitors the process and the operating mode of the machine, replacing
material and checking the dimensions. The Operator's position by the machine is not defined.

5. MACHINE DESCRIPTION
5.1 Introduction
The GPM 450 verSA is a creasing, perforating and punching machine where the parameters of
individual operations are entered on the touch screen. Loading the sheet of paper is manual, but the
feed of each paper is already done by a stepper motor. The creasing allows for easy folding of the
paper, whereas waste-free perforation allows you to tear off the paper easily.

5.2 Exchangeable Tools
In standard equipment, the machine is supplied with the three exchangeable tools described below.
The default setting has been done for all types of tools. A change of the machine function requires
the tool to be replaced. Creasing tools are placed by the manufacturer into the Waste Drawer (4).
Loosen the tool screws (11, 12, 13, 14, 15) in order to replace the knives in the tools. Replace the
knife and fit the tool back. Tighten the tool screws (11, 12). Do not overtighten the tool screws (13,
14, 15). Then place the tool into the machine and perform a trial stroke (see Section 6.1) to ensure
the knife and the tool base is parallel (1). Now tighten the screws (31, 32) completely. Now the tool is
ready for use.

Accessories
6. MACHINE INSTALLATION
After unpacking, place the machine on a flat firm surface and attach the Delivery Table (6). Connect
the machine to the power supply, after that the machine is ready for operation. The perforation
function is factory set. For the creasing function replace the tool included in the packaging (Section
5.2).
6.1 Adjustment of Top Bar Stroke
Unless the depth of a crease on both sides of the sheet is identical or unless the sheet is torn away
evenly after perforation, the top bar can be moved down using the tool thrust regulation screws. The
screws should be loosened anticlockwise by approx. 30°, 1/12 of the revolution (the bar moves
downward) and then secure them with a nut. Try the quality of perforation after each turn of the
screw by 30° and, if satisfactory, do not turn the screws anymore. When the adjustment of
perforation is finished, the machine is also to be adjusted for creasing. If the perforating/creasing
force exceeds the limit (engine output is exceeded) and the top bar remains in the lower position,
use the Main Switch (18) to switch the machine off and then wait for 20 seconds before you re-start
the machine. Press (Manual control –Section 7.1.2), then (tool backward) next to the field
UPPER TOOL. The tool is now unlocked and the thrust can be adjusted using the tool thrust
regulation screws. Activate (tool forward) to make a trial stroke.

7.1 Overview of Touch Screen Function Icons
7.1.1 Sound On/Off
Press to turn on/off the sound signal for key pressing. If the sound is on, there will be a beep
when the active areas on the touch screen are pressed. If the sound is off, appears.
7.1.2 Manual Control
Manual control is mostly used when replacing the tools or when loosening jammed paper from the
machine. Press (manual control) on the Home Screen (Fig. 6) and the following menu is displayed
(Fig. 7). Press the move forward/backward icons , next to the MOVE ROLLERS field to set the
machine’s rollers running. Icons and define the continuity of the run of the rollers. –rollers
are turning only if the arrow is held. –rollers start running and rotate until the icon is pressed
again. Use (tool backward) next to the UPPER TOOL field if the perforation/creasing force gets too
high and the top bar remains in the lower position. Press to unlock the tool and adjust the thrust
by using the tool thrust regulation screws. Activate (tool forward) to make a trial stroke. Refer to
Section 6.1 for how to use the icons of the UPPER TOOL field. Press OK to go back to the Home
Screen.
