outlined below.
•This machine is designed for one-
person operation. Never operate the
machine with more than one person.
•Safe use of this machine is the respon-
sibility of the operator. Use good judg-
ment and common sense when working
with and around the machine and its
accessories.
•Read and understand all instructions

ized Challenge Dealer. Failure to un-
derstand the operating instructions may
result in personal injury.

They are there for your protection. Se-
vere laceration or dismemberment may
result if safety devices are altered.
•Disconnect power and lock out before
performing any maintenance. See Sec-
tion 1.5 , Power Lockout Procedure.
•Observe all caution and instruction la-
bels on this machine.

CMT 130 Book Trimmer 1-4 Power Lockout Procedure
•Keep all conveyors and elevator acces-
sories clear of foreign objects. Do not
place foreign objects within the ma-
chine. Cutting anything other than
qualifying perfect bound books could
result in serious damage to the machine
and create safety hazards. A qualifying
perfect bound book will fall into the size
range described in the specifications on
page 1-8.
•Make sure all applicable accessories
are securely bolted to the main ma-
chine. Tip hazards may result from un-
secured accessories.
•If the machine operates abnormally,
consult a Challenge authorized service
agent.
1.5 Power Lockout Procedure
For maximum safety while making ADJUST-
MENTS or REPAIRS to your machine, lock out
the main power disconnect switch. The switch
should be moved to the OFF position and a
padlock securely fastened through the loop.
The person adjusting or servicing the machine
should hold the key.

WARNING
The CMT 130 was designed specifically for use with the
Challenge in-feed and exit accessories. If any other
accessories are used, it is the purchaser's responsibil-
ity to comply with ANSI B65.4 Safety Standard for
Three-Knife Trimmers. Failure to comply with this stan-
dard could result in personal injury or death.
CAUTION
The CMT 130 was specifically designed to trim perfect
bound books only. It should not be used for trimming other
materials. Trimming other materials with the CMT 130 may
result in safety hazards or damage to the machine.
The CMT 130 was designed to trim perfect
bound books only. For trimmable book sizes,
see section 1.7.1 .
See manuals, F.501 and F.502, for specifica-
tions for the Book Pile Feeder and the Vertical
Stacker.
Multiple Book Mode: Note that up to 3 books
may be stacked in multiple book mode. The
total thickness is not to exceed 1-1/4 in. (32
mm). Larger pile thicknesses may be cut, but
the trim may be less accurate and more out-of-
square. Always test before running books out-
side the published specifications.
NOTE: Challenge reserves the right to make changes to
any product or specification without notice and without in-
curring responsibility to existing units.

CMT 130 Book Trimmer 1-9 Specifications
1.7.1 Book Size Chart
The physical parts of a book are defined as fol-
lows and will be referenced as such throughout
this manual. Book dimensions are referenced
as (spine length) X (top or bottom edge length).
Spine: The edge of a book where the pages
are bound together.
Top edge: Also know as the head, the top
edge is the edge of the book that is facing away
from the reader.
Bottom edge: Also known as the foot, the bot-
tom edge is the edge of the book that is facing
toward the reader.
Face: The face or fore-edge is the edge of the
book from which it is opened.
Book block: A book block is the printed and
collated form of a book that does not include the
cover. It contains all front and end matter as
well as the text block.
Untrimmed book: An untrimmed book is a
book block that has been bound with a cover
but has not yet been trimmed to finish size.
Trimmed book: A trimmed book has been
bound and trimmed to a finish size.
Figure 1-2. Book Size Charts can be used to
determine if a specific book layout can be
trimmed by the CMT 130. From Figure 1-2, see
that (x) is the bottom trim and (h) is the spine
length of the book. The book size must fall
within the shaded region of the chart but never
exactly on the sloped line.
The CMT 130 software will not allow a book to
be cut outside this range. The operator should
be aware of these size constraints before books
are printed. The CMT 130 will not allow the top
or bottom to be trimmed by itself.

1.9.3 Site Specifications
The installation site must have adequate space
and utilities to support the trimmer with its setup
options. It requires a supply of compressed air
and electricity. Refer to section 1.7
Specifications on page 1-8 to verify that the site
can accommodate these requirements. Use the
following figures to determine floor space re-
quirements for the option to be installed.
1.9.3.1 In-Line Option
This in-line option is used when automated
transport of books from a binder to the trimmer
is required and book size changes are frequent.
It includes the CMT 130 base machine, the Ad-
vanced Infeed Conveyor, the Elevator, and the
Vertical Stacker. See Figure 1-8 for space re-
quirements. If the basic Exit Conveyor is used
in place of the Book Stacker, use 47” (120 cm)
in place of the 18” shown in the diagram. If the
standard hand feeder is used in place of the
Pile Feeder, use 16” (41cm) in place of the 22”
shown in the diagram.
Note the locations of the air and power hook-up
locations. Air and power lines should be
dropped from the ceiling in order to have clear
access to the waste bins using a rolling cart.
Figure 1-8. In-line Option

11/09
CMT 130 Book Trimmer 1-15 Exit Conveyor
1.9.3.2 Stand-Alone Option
The Stand-Alone option is used when books are
fed to the trimmer by hand. It includes the CMT
130 base machine, the Book Pile Feeder, and
the Vertical Stacker. See Figure 1-9 for space
requirements. If the basic Exit Conveyor is
used in place of the Book Stacker, use 47” (120
cm) in place of the 18” shown in the diagram. If
the standard hand feeder is used in place of the
Pile Feeder, use 16” (41cm) in place of the 22”
shown in the diagram.
Note the locations of the air and power hook-up
locations. Air and power lines should be
dropped from the ceiling in order to have clear
access to the waste bins with a rolling cart.
