Looking at the book clamp comb, you'll notice that the comb has 4

formers clear through those gaps when the book clamp is pressed
down against the positioned book. Then make sure that the teeth of
the comb are between the punched holes (Image 6), a little closer to
the left edge of each hole. This setting provides clearance for the coil
as it inserts into the book. Once correctly positioned, re-tighten the

that secure the cutting and bending heads. This will allow you to slide
them from side to side. The left side cut and bend head will only need
to be moved slightly between jobs. The Koilmatic has convenient
preset mounted blocks to allow you to quickly position the right side
