Before switching the machine on, test the action of the upper blade as it moves to meet the lower
blade. This is vitally important, as otherwise the cross cutter may be damaged.
1.5 Testing the forms cutter
Before beginning to operate the forms cutter remove the protective covering from the feed plate. If it is not
removed, the paper will become statically charged and will affect the cutting process.
This check is absolutely essential as the machine may have become maladjusted during transport.
Proceed as follows:
1. Unscrew the housing from the right side wall of the forms cutter.
2. Slowly turn by hand the large belt pulley to which the connecting rod is fastened. No strong resistance should
be felt.
3. Raise the upper blade to its maximum position by turning the pulley. From the back of the forms cutter
insert a sheet of paper on the far left between the upper and lower blades and perform a cross cut by
turning the pulley slowly. The cross cutter should begin cutting approx. 10 mm from the left edge.
4. If necessary adjust the engagement of the blades by turning the adjusting screw .
5. Screw the housing in position.
6. Before connecting the power supply check the voltage again.
7. Connect the power supply. The forms cutter is now ready for operation.

2. Starting up
2.1 Switching the machine on
The machine is switched on by the power switch. The
display then shows a message for about 3 seconds
(display version, serial no., model no.), which can be held
in the display by pressing the stop button.
When the button is pressed again the current counter
position appears. When the button is released, the
program last used is shown. If any other equipment is
connected, it will return to its starting position (e.g.
lowering stacker).
2.2 Selecting the program
The display shows the program last used. If you wan t to use a different program, you can select it with buttons F1-F4.
New programs can be entered in program slot 00 only, and stored in slots 01-83 (see also Section 3.3 "The
programming level”). Every time the machine is switched on, fixed programs from the EPROM memory overwrite
program slots 84-99.
2.3 Loading paper
2.3.1 Inserting the paper
Open both tractor covers and release the tractor
screws . Set the tractors at approximately the width of
the paper but do not lock them. Insert the paper. Make
sure that the leading edge is cleanly torn off, as
otherwise the paper will not be cut on the cross-
perforation. Now close the tractor covers and position
the paper in the centre of the machine. Use the centre
paper guide as an aid. Fix the screws on one of the
tractors and adjust the tension of the paper by moving
the second tractor. The paper should be neither very
tight nor very loose. Then fix the screws on the
secound tractor.
Fine adjustment: This device can be used to fine adjust
the tractor to a certain position using the adjusti ng wheel
(position the tractor first).
2.3.2 Adjusting the edge blades
Release the screws of the edge blades and fix then after setting to the desired width. T he maximum width is 28
mm (option available: extra wide edge cutter max. 60 mm). The red arrow indicates the cutting position of the edge
blade. After setting the required width, lock both edge blade blocks again.
Fine adjustment: This device can be used to fine adjust the edge cu tter to a certain cutting position using the
adjusting wheel (position the edge cutter first).

2.3.3 Automatic positioning of the forms
After the paper has ben inserted, series 6600 forms cutters position the forms automatically at the bl ade edge on
starting or on changing programs. The central paper guide contains a light-guide fibre optics system, which has two
functions:
1. Recognising end-of-paper
2. Automatic positioning of paper on the cutting edge
If the paper is inserted in the tractors in such a way that it does not reach the optical scanner, the tractors will
transport the paper automatically forwards to the scanner after the Start button has been pressed, and then under
the cross blade for the first cut.
If the paper is inserted in such a way that it already covers the optical scanner, the tractors will m ove in reverse
direction to the scanner after the Start button has been pressed and then forwards under the cross blade.
Due to this automatic positioning the paper can be inserted without any need to position it accurately. Before paper
is inserted in the machine, it is important to chec k that the leading edge of the paper has been clean ly torn off at the
cross-perforation. This is necessary because, due to the automatic positioning of the paper on the cutting edge, the
forms will otherwise not be cut exactly on the cross-perforation.
The machine automatically recognizes the leading edge of the paper and transports it immediately to the cutting
edge. If the leading edge is damaged or if a piece has already been cut off, the machine will not position the paper
correctly with the cross-perforation on the blade e dge. Any correction made using the fine adjustment control will be
automatically applied each time paper is inserted.
We recommend that you tear off one sheet of paper before every new start. This also helps to prevent j amming due
to the cuts made by the edge blades.
Caution!
The end-of-paper light barrier must not be covered by the paper-holder as this means the
paper cannot be detected.
On starting, the machine would run in reverse direction and would eject the paper in reverse
direction into the tractor.
If the paper-holder becomes twisted during continuous operation so that it covers the light
barrier, the forms cutter will not stop at the end of the paper.

2.3.4 Paper adjustment with reader from above
(See also 3.3.1.5, parameter k)
If the operator starts an OMR program, the paper will not be
aligned on the cutting edge. The optical mark reader
evaluates the OMR marks printed on the paper. When the
Start button is pressed the first mark is positioned at a reading
head.
Please note: There are two different positions of ht e reading
head!
1/6" processing:
The adjustment line (AL) must be visible in the groove of
the reading head (see scetch).
1/8" processing:
The adjustment line (AL) must have 0,6 mm distance to the
reading head. Measure the distance always from the middle
of the reading mark.
Adjusting the reading head: The reading head can be moved
in the feeding direction and sideways by loosen the set screws
.
If the adjustment at the reading head is not suffic ent to bring
the reading mark in the position as described above, the
reading area of the adjustment line must be entered one line
before or below under parameter k), .
2.3.5 Paper adjustment with reader from below
(See also 3.3.1.5, parameter k)
With reading from below the OMR mark cannot be detected
when positioning the paper. So you have to make a p unch in
the paper as below.
The adjustment line should be
marked by means of punch pliers before
inserting the paper.
The hole must be punched in the
center of the reading mark.
Please note: There are two different positions of the reading
head!
1/6" processing:
The adjustment line (AL) must be visible in the groove of
the reading head (see scetch).
1/8" processing:
The adjustment line (AL) must have 0,6 mm distancet o the
reading head. Measure the distance always from the middle
of the reading mark or from the middle of the hole.
After pressing the Start - button the first reading mark is
positioned at the reading head.
Adjusting the reading head: The reading head can be moved
sideways by the set screw and in the direction of feed by
moving the plate . If the adjustment at the reading head is
not sufficent to bring the reading mark in the position as
described above, the reading area of the adjustment line must
be entered one line before or below under parameter k), .

to begin continuous operation.
2.4.1 Display
The starting speed increases continuously during cutting of the first sheets, until the set maximum sp eed is reached.
During continuous operation the fine position (cutting edge), the feed rate and the pause between two forms can be
altered. The preset counter, the actual counter and the group counter are also shown.
F1 - Fine position 1/192" reverse
F2 - Fine position 1/192" forward
F3 - Alter feed rate
(Level 1 to 7= maximum speed)
F4 - Alter pause
(Level 7 to 0, 7= longest pause)
All these changes will be automatically saved in the current program.
2.4.2 Test cut
By pressing the Start and Stop buttons simultaneously it is possible to cut single sheets as a test. When the Stop
button is pressed, the forms cutter always stops at the end of the current cycle. The paper is positioned with the
perforation at the blade edge.

3.2 The operator level (level 1)
After switching the machine on the operator can carry out various functions. He can:
- select and start programs (00 - 99).
- browse through parameters b) - e) and possibly also i) and j), if parameter b) = 000, in all programs.
- alter parameter d) COUNTER in all programs.
- Change parameter m) fold length in all programs.
- alter parameters b) - e) (possibly also i) and j))in program slot 00.
3.2.1 Entering parameters
After the machine is switched on, the message PROGRAM - SELECT appears on the display. The desired program
can be selected by pressing buttons F1-F4. The program selected then appears in the left upper display.
Press the Prog button to obtain PARAMETER - SELECT. Use buttons F1 and F2 to browse through the
parameters.
3.2.1.1 Parameter b) Length
In the Length parameter you can set the FORM LENGTH . The form length is measured in 1/6" (1 inch = 25. 4mm)
or 1/8" line space. Measure the form first on the plexiglass cover. Give the full length from perforat ion to perforation
(including double cuts where necessary). The 1/6" o r 1/8" step also applies when using the OMR system. If a form
is to be cut into several pieces, this can be enter ed with the Special Length program i), j).
F4 - Press Input
Select length:
F1 - Select number (0-9) (R)
F2 - Current write position =_ (R)
F3 - 1/6" or 1/8" length step
F4 - Exit

3.2.1.2 Parameters i) Special Length and j) Program Sequence
Before parameters i) and j) can be shown at the operator level, you must input the following information.
Select parameter b) and set Length to 000.
Special Length is only possible with Length 000. Sp ecial
Length can not be used together with the OMR system.
Select parameter c) and enter the length step for Special
Length (1/6", 1/8" or 1/24").
The length step in parameter b) is not applicable!
Parameter i) Special Length
Here you can enter up to 4 different lengths. The order is not important at this point.
The sequence of lengths is set in parameter j).
F4 - Press Input
Enter length:
F1 - Select number (0-9) e.g. 10x1/6" (R)
(1/6" is set in parameter c) )
F2 - Current write position =_ (R)
F3 - Length no. 1-4 (i.e. up to 4 different lengths can be
entered) (R)
F4 - Exit

Parameter j) Program Sequence
The lengths in parameter i) can now be entered in the desired sequence under the numbers 1-9. The machine
passes through all positions from 1-9 in every cycle. When length 0 is entered, this position is passed over without
action in the program sequence.
F4 - Press Input
F1 - Sequence (1-9) (R)
F2 - Length 1-4 or 0 from parameter i) (R)
F3 - Form will be chopped
Form will not not be chopped
F4 - Exit
Multiple distribution of lengths 1-4 from parameter i) among positions 1-9 is also possible. In additi on, it is possible
to decide at each position (1-9) whether the length 1-4 displayed here is to be performed completely or whether the
form is to be chopped.
Chopping witdh: 3/6" means that a feed length of 2" will be cut with 4 cycles (1 cycle = 3/6").
When using counter function ONLINE #00/#01 (see section 3.3.3) note the following:
The function entered under line #01 is carried out until the section before the last section is reached.
The function entered under line #00 is carried out when the last section is reached.
Possible cuts with Special Length:
The following example is stored in the machine under program slot 99 (fixed program):
Parameter i) Special Length (1/6" is set in Length c)):
No. 1 - 002 x 1/6"
No. 2 - 004 x 1/6"
No. 3 - 020 x 1/6"
Parameter j)
Program sequence:
1.) Length 2
2.) Length 3
3.) Length 1
4.) Length 3
5.) Length 1
6.) Length 3
7.) Length 2
8.) Length 0
9.) Length 0
The type of cut in our example is ‘do not chop’.
But it could also be ‘chop’, e.g. in program sequence i), point 6.), length 3.

3.2.1.3 Parameter c) Cut
Here you can set the type of cut (single cut, double cut or only edge cut without cross cut), the width of cut
and the cut width step (1/6", 1/8" or 1/24") for double cuts.
Single cut is obtained by entering e.g. 0 * 1/6" or 0 * 1/8" f or the width
(0 = multiplier).
For Double cut the desired waste area is set by entering a multipl ier > 0;
e.g width: 2 * 1/6" (2 = multiplier). Thus in this case the waste area would be 2 * 1/6"
long. Any leftovers longer than this will automatically be chopped.
Edge cut can be set by entering cut width step = NO CUT.
F4 - Press Input
F1 and F2 - Multiplier for cut width step (0-9)
F3 - Cut width step (NO CUT, 1/6", 1/8" or 1/24") (R)
z.B.: 0 x NO CUT = No cross cut
0 x 1/6" = Single cut
2 x 1/8" = Double cut (at the upper and the
lower edge of the form 1/8" will be
cut away)
Possible cuts:
No cross cut -
only the margins will be cut away -
Parameter c) 0 x NO CUT
Single cut
Parameter c) 0 x 1/6"
or 0 x 1/8"
or 0 x 1/24"
Double cut
The piece cut away can be min. 1/24", max.
1 1/2" wide and is distributed symmetr cally
on both sides of the perforation. Wider
double cuts can be programmed using
parametersi) and j).
