C Ca au ut ti io on n
This mark indicates that if instructions are not followed, serious injury
and/or equipment damage may result.
C
Ca au ut ti io on n
1. Please be sure to use the electrical plug which is attached. Do not change the plug as it could
cause fire or electric shock.
2. DON’T disassemble or modify the power cord, otherwise, injury or electrical shock may occur.
3. If any abnormal state such as excessive heat, smoke or a bad smell occurs, IMMEDIATELY switch the main unit
off and remove the power cord from the outlet. Continuing to use it as is may lead to a fire or electrical shock.
4. Should any foreign substances (metal, liquid, etc.) get inside the unit, IMMEDIATELY switch the main unit
off and remove power cord from the outlet. Continuing to use it as is may lead to fire or electrical shock.
Have the unit inspected/repaired by your authorized servicing dealer.
5. DON’T insert or remove a power supply adapter with wet hands, as it may lead to an electrical shock.
6. BE SURE to detach the power cord from the outlet by holding its plug section, NOT the cord itself,
otherwise it might cause damage to the cord which could result in fire or electrical shock.
C Ca au ut ti io on n
1. NEVER put your hands inside the machine as it may lead to bodily injury.
2. DON’T perforate materials other than paper as this might damage internal parts.
3. DON’T disassemble or modify the unit, otherwise injury or electrical shock may occur.
4. BE SURE to detach the power cord from the outlet before relocating the machine.

To ensure safe use of the machine and avoid damage to it,
please be sure to observe the following precautions.
Keep your fingers and hands away from the die block when perforating, otherwise injury may occur.
Don’t touch moving parts when perforating, otherwise injury may occur.
Don’t pull the paper out while perforating. Wait until perforation cycle is completed.
DON’T disassemble or modify the unit as it might cause a machine malfunction, possible
injury, fire or electric shock etc.
DON’T perforate materials other than paper such as the following examples:
Metals such as Iron, Copper, Aluminum, Stainless steel, etc.
This may result in damage to the die block and void manufacturer warranty.
DON’T perforate materials which adhere to the paper such as staples, paper clips, adhesive tape, etc.
This may result in damage to the die block and void manufacturer warranty.
DON’T perforate items such as wet paper, adhesion stickers, vinyl, etc. as these could cause
paper chips to clog the die block.
Perforated paper chips will accumulate in waste receptacle with frequent use of the
perforator. Empty it at regular intervals (check daily). Not emptying the waste will cause
paper particles to build up in the die block.
Please be sure to remove the plug from the outlet when removing the paper waste.
DON’T install the machine on an uneven or unstable surface as it could become susceptible
to falling off.
If you move the machine, please carry it by the bottom of the main body with both hands.

※There are 4 types of die blocks….905, 905L, 605 and 705.
※The maximum capacity is based on 64gs/㎡paper. Based upon paper thickness, number and diameter
of the needles, the specifications may vary. e.g: the capacity may be less than the specified maximum.
※All die blocks are equipped with a micro switch gauge for detecting the paper automatically.
The depth position can be changed by adjusting the depth gauge.
※Inserting the paper: when the edge of the paper engages the micro switch, the machine will start perforating.

■Please read the following precautions carefully before using.
1. Be sure to check and confirm that the power supply and voltage is correct as outlined in specifications.
2. When carrying the product, please disconnect from wall and carry with two hands or put on a cart.
3. Since the perforator is very heavy, be sure to place it on a solid surface.
4. Perforating capacity is based upon PPC paper (64 g /m 2).
a. The perforating capacity of Die Block No. 905 & No. 905L is up to 20 sheets.
b. Depending upon voltage, paper weight, needle diameter & needle configuration, it is possible that the
maximum of 20 sheets per perforation will not be realized.
c. The capacity for Model No. 605 and No. 705 will be 5-30 sheets depending upon voltage, paper
weight, needle diameter & configuration.
5. Die Block Model No. 905 (Pin Type)
To change a number or character, pull out the select pin and rotate the wheel freely with your finger.
When the engraved letter of each numeral, character or mark you wish to perforate is located, insert
the select pin securely into the number or character which is on the wheel.
Please be sure that the select pin is inserted into the wheel hole securely, otherwise it may cause the needles
to bend and the wheel to possibly sustain damage.
6. Die Block No.905L (Lever type)
To change a number or character on the wheel, rotate the lever up or down to the corresponding number or
character you wish to perforate. Please be sure to place the lever pin in the fixed position, otherwise it may
cause the it may cause the needles to bend and the wheel to possibly sustain damage. Once the lever
reaches the correct fixed position, you will feel it lock into place.
7. Please don’t perforate any material except for paper.
Examples are as follows: metals (paper clips and staples), cloth products, leather products, seals, resins, etc.
8. Please empty the paper chip storage container on a regular basis as over-accumulation can cause problems
by compacting paper chips into the die block.
9. The machine is designed to start the perforation upon paper insertion. If the unit continues to activate on its’
own, please disconnect and contact your local servicing dealer for assistance.
10. If paper is jammed in the die block, please disconnect and contact your local servicing dealer for assistance.
11. Please don’t perforate in a previously perforated area. Change paper position for each new perforation.
12. Over time and based upon types of materials being perforated, some wear is to be expected. If the paper is
not being perforated thoroughly, please contact your local servicing dealer for assistance.
13. If you will not be using the perforator for an extended period, please remove the power plug from the wall.

■There is a micro switch to auto activate the perforation cycle located on the depth gauge.
(Upon paper insertion, the machine will activate automatically.)
■The position of the micro switch is set at the point of maximum depth when shipped from the factory.
■If you need to change the depth, please adjust according to the following procedure.
※The micro switch is located on the depth gauge on the right side of the die block.
Note: Please turn off the power when you adjust the depth.
Do not attempt to adjust the depth switch gauge on the left side of the die block if the power is on.
1. To adjust the depth position, please loosen the screw ⑳and change the depth position by sliding the gauge
either forward or backward.
2. First adjust the right side depth gauge and then adjust the left side depth gauge.
Key points of the adjustment: To check whether the position of the depth gauge is equal on both the
left and right side, insert one piece of paper and check the squareness of the paper.
3. After the adjustments are made, please turn on the power and make a perforating test. Check the positioning
of the perforation and make final adjustments as necessary.

Lubricating points
※Periodically lubricate parts with a light machine oil where indicated by the arrows
※Lubrication on both sides (left and right)
DIE BLOCK SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE& USAGE RECOMMENDATIONS
1. Lubricate parts indicated by the arrows periodically (recommend once per month during heavy use periods)
2. When selecting numbers or characters, please be sure to position the desired character on the correct wheel
stop/alignment position before activating the machine.
Model 905 Pin Selector Die…when selecting the desired number or character, please be sure to insert the
wheel selector pin into the die block firmly and in proper alignment.
Model 905L Lever Selector Die…when selecting the desired number or character, please be sure that the
position is in the correct wheel stop/alignment position.
If the selected number or character is not in the correct position and the machine is activated, it is possible
that the needles, wheels and/or die plate may sustain damage.
3. According to the frequency of use, please clean paper waste materials from the die block periodically.
4. Please check the paper waste storage regularly and discard the paper chips before the container is full.
If you use the machine continuously and do not discard the paper waste regularly, it will be difficult
to remove the paper waste storage container. If waste storage clearance is neglected, it may also cause the
die block needles to sustain damage.
