OPERATOR’S MANUAL

MODEL 51 OPERATOR MANUAL OPEX CORPORATION
FROM THE PRESIDENT OF OPEX CORPORATION
Thank you for choosing OPEX equipment to manage your mail
extraction needs. For nearly three decades, OPEX Corporation has
been the leader in mailroom automation technology. Our Rapid
Extraction desks have been recognized as the industry standard for high
volume rapid extraction of incoming mail.
The introduction of the Model 51 Rapid Extraction Desk sets a
new standard, and marks the beginning of a new era in operator
satisfaction. You’ll appreciate the many standard and optional features
which we’ve designed to increase not only your productivity, but also
your comfort as an operator. We’ve listened to our customers, and with
our traditional attention to detail, we’ve added features you’ve
requested, and some you never expected!
Although it’s the fastest single station extractor available today, the Model 51 is extremely quiet.
The worksurface is larger. There’s a new sort bin configuration that allows you to adjust the bins to suit
your particular reach. The optional motorized Adjustable-Height Work Surface allows you to work at the
optimum level for your build, while keeping your feet on the floor. It even adjusts to accommodate
operators who must use a wheelchair.
If your particular mail operation requires you to process envelopes which are as tall as the Postal
Service allows for 1st Class mail, the Model 51 is equal to the task. Designed to provide two-sided opening
for the maximum height allowed in the United States (6 1/8” tall) and for the European C5 envelope, which
is even taller, the Model 51 is truly an international machine!
What about service? Over the years, OPEX has developed an unparalleled reputation for quick,
comprehensive, accurate service. We realize how important it is for you to maintain uptime, so we've made
it our goal to answer service calls within four hours. We’ve placed an equal emphasis on speedy repairs.
Twenty minutes, on average, is all the time it takes for an OPEX technician to complete a repair on a Rapid
Extraction Desk, thanks to comprehensive training and some of the best diagnostic software in the industry.
Welcome to the OPEX family! We wish you much success in your mail operation.
Sincerely,
OPEX Corporation
Al Stevens
President

MODEL 51 OPERATOR MANUAL OPEX CORPORATION
for safety’s sake…
The OPEX Model 51 is designed to allow you to increase your productivity while reducing much of the physical
stress normally associated with your job. Ergonomic considerations will contribute to your comfort as an OPEX
operator. These include the following improvements:
A larger wrap-around work surface gives you room to “spread out.”
Improved envelope extract heads open the envelope wider for easier access.
A vertically oriented sort area reduces arm travel and reach.
An operator-adjustable rack system simplifies large document sorting and placement.
The Performance Control Center is back-lit for easier viewing.
Optional pneumatic height adjustment provides the most comfortable setting for you.
And many other features to make your task easier.
As in any occupation which requires you to perform the same motion repeatedly during the course of
your work, it is important to consider how you perform your task. Always use proper operating
procedures when working at your Model 51 Rapid Extraction Desk. Follow the directions for using and
adjusting your chair and Desk. Using improper procedure can result in a potentially serious injury.
To reduce possible risks, we strongly urge you to follow these suggestions:
1. Maintain an upright body posture. Avoid the tendency to slump in your chair. The angle between
your torso and thigh should always be 90 degrees.
2. Adjust the seat position on your chair so that your elbow, when held at a 90 degree angle at your
side, is approximately 1½ inches below the top of the Model 51 work surface. For your comfort,
we recommend use of a specially-designed OPEX ergonomic desk chair to ensure proper
posture and seat position. The adjustment of the OPEX chair is described in the Accessories
Operation portion of this manual.
3. Occasionally change the angle of your posture.
4. If possible, avoid operating the machine for longer than a single 8 hour shift.
5. If you are under 5’ in height and your Model 51 is equipped with the optional pneumatic height
adjustment, adjust the height of the Desk so that your feet rest on the floor. If your Model 51 is
not equipped with the pneumatic adjustment, you may wish to place your feet on a footrest to
provide greater comfort while operating the machine.
6. If you are over 6’ in height, and your Model 51 is equipped with the optional hydraulic height
adjustment, adjust the height of the Desk so that you are able to work comfortably in a position
which maintains good posture. If your Model 51 is not equipped with the height adjustment,
adjust the leveling feet on the Desk to provide greater extension.
While no suggestions can guarantee completely against work-related injuries, you will certainly increase
your comfort and safety while operating the Model 51 Rapid Extraction Desk if you put these six
suggestions into practice. The Model 51 has been designed with you in mind. If it is operated correctly,
you should find your work experience comfortable and enjoyable.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The OPEX Model 51 is a semi-automatic workstation. Its function is to improve productivity in mail extraction by
allowing an operator to open envelopes and extract the contents in a rapid fashion.
After an extraction is complete, the Model 51 can check the envelope to make sure that all contents have been
removed. The Model 51 is typically equipped with adjustable shelves and a moveable content sort tray. Several
optional enhancements are available:
Performance Control Center (PCC): The PCC records and displays job and operator
information. It compiles and retains statistics for management purposes.
Internal Printer and printer software: The printer provides a hard copy of job and operator
statistical information.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Loading the Model 51
Load mail on the Model 51 Feed Tray, as shown below.
10
Model 51 Feed Tray Area
Mail Pusher
Supports and advances envelopes.
Lifts, rotates and slides back to allow
additional envelopes to be loaded.
Pickup Sensor
Knows if mail is present. Controls
the advance movement of the
loaded envelopes.
Feed Tray
Capacity is approximately 22 inches.
Holds about 2/3 of a tray of mail.
Procedure to load envelopes:
1. Align the envelopes so that they all face the same direction, right side up. The bottom of
each envelope must rest on the Feed Tray. (See Model 50 / 51 difference below.)
2. Slide the Mail Pusher to its most forward position. Load a handful of mail behind the
pusher, using the angle of the pusher as your guide. Loading in this manner will ensure that
the proper loading angle is maintained, so that each envelope will feed smoothly into the
machine.
3. Lift the Mail Pusher, slide it back and drop it into place behind the envelopes. The
bottom of the first envelope should rest behind the raised lip of the Feed Tray.
4. Continue to load the mail, placing each handful behind the pusher until the Feed Tray is
full.
5. Lift the Pusher, slide it back, and place it behind the last envelope. You will find that it is
easier to load in this manner than to try to continue loading mail in front of the Pusher.
Model 50 / 51 difference: The Model 51 does not require the mail to be justified to the left edge
when loading. This feature is especially helpful when running white mail. It is still important,
however, to load the mail so that the bottom of the envelope touches the feed tray.

MODEL 51 OPERATOR MANUAL OPEX CORPORATION
OPERATING THE MODEL 51 (continued)
Operating the Model 51 with PCC (Performance Control Center)
Once the machine is turned on, the Operator Main Menu screen will appear:
Notice that both the operator’s name and the current job are displayed. The shadow highlight is used to select
the desired option, and may be moved left and right using the Left and Right Arrow Buttons.
To change the current operator, highlight “Select Operator” and press the Enter Button. A menu of operators
will appear as follows:
Model 50 / 51 difference: Operator names may be sorted and displayed alphabetically on the
Model 51. Up to 200 operators to be displayed on the Operator List. The same is true for Job List.
Using the Input Buttons, move the cursor to highlight the desired operator. Press Enter. The new operator’s
name will be displayed on the “Operator Main Menu” screen.
The same method will be used to select the desired job. To change the current job, highlight “Select Job” and

2. Normal Cut—Knob in mid-position
3. Deep Cut—Knob pulled out (for welded-seam envelopes)
12

MODEL 51 OPERATOR MANUAL OPEX CORPORATION
OPERATING THE MODEL 51 (continued)
Now that you have selected the operator and job to be run, the Operator Main Menu screen will display that
information. Your are ready to begin processing envelopes.
Press the Push to Cycle Button to begin the extraction process. The Run screen will be displayed on the PCC.
Count: Number of pieces processed.
Job Run Time: Number of hours and minutes the job has been active.
Rate: Number of pieces processed divided by Job Run Time.
Burst: Shows operator’s peak rate over a 6-minute span.
The total count is displayed at the top of the screen. A single vertical line is displayed for each minute the
machine is running. The lines represent your productivity rate. If you hit the Cancel button to take a 15-minute
break, and then resume running, there will be a gap where no lines are displayed for ¼ hour. Three 1-hour
periods are displayed and updated every hour.
The horizontal line indicates the level of performance expected by your management for the job being run.
This level of expectation line is supervisor-adjustable.
Model 50 / 51 difference: Hitting the Cancel button on the Model 51 keypad will not necessarily
reset the count to zero, so long as the Operator and the Job remain the same when the job is resumed.
This will allow an operator who takes a break and returns to continue the same job to view the count at
the point where the operator left off. The parameter which governs this is called “Consecutive Run
Combine Time.” The default is 60 minutes, but your supervisor may change this from a range of zero
(in which case hitting the Cancel button WILL reset the count to zero) to any number desired by your
shop management.
NON-PCC OPERATION
If your Model 51 is not equipped with the Performance Control Center, only the count will be displayed.
When a jam occurs…
If a jam occurs on your machine, the Jam Error screen will be displayed, followed by the Run screen shown
above. The two screens will alternate until the machine is restarted by pressing the Push to Cycle button.

OPERATING THE MODEL 51 (continued)
Candler (Verifier)
The candler verifier detects the presence of contents mistakenly left in the envelope. If the Candler is on, and
contents are detected, the red light will flash, and the machine will not advance the envelope into the trash.
Pick up the envelope, check for contents, and continue by pressing the Push to Cycle button.
Push to Cycle
Button
Candler
Button
Model 50 / 51 difference: Heavily printed envelopes or privacy envelopes can be easily candled
on the Model 51. The Model 51 candler verifier uses an actual thickness profile of the envelope to
determine that the envelope is empty of contents. The candler on the Model 51 is supervisor adjustable
by job. It has 3 modes:
1. Candler Off: No check of the envelope will be made in this mode.
2. Use 1st Envelope As Reference: This allows the first envelope to set the standard for
each envelope that follows.
3. Use 16 Envelope Average As Reference: New with the Model 51, this mode uses a
floating average of the previous 16 envelopes as the reference. This mode allows for
minor variation in envelope thicknesses.
Emptying the Cutter Trash
As the machine is run, top cutter chips will accumulate in the trash bin directly in front of the operator’s feet.
Side cutter chips are collected in a trash bin located inside the door to the operator’s right. These bins should
be checked and emptied on a regular basis. Failure to empty trash bins will result in chips “haystacking” up
toward the cutter mechanism, preventing additional chips from falling into the trash. This may lead to the cutter
itself being jammed.
If this happens, empty the trash bin. Then clear the cutter so that no chips remain, using a pencil or similar tool
to push down chips which have collected between the cutter and surrounding frame.
Resume operation.

;The Ergonomic Desk Chair
Available in two sizes, this unique chair is specifically designed to enhance the operator’s comfort and
safety by maintaining proper posture and helping to avoid fatigue.
Adjustment Instructions:
Be Safe! Keep your hands on the handles while adjusting the chair.
Seat height adjustment: Adjust the seat high enough so that your feet are just flat on the floor.
Don’t allow your feet to dangle.
To raise the seat, momentarily raise yourself off the seat and pull the Middle Lever up. The
seat will rise gently until you release the lever.
To lower the seat, take most of your weight off the seat and pull the Middle Lever up. The seat
will sink under your weight until you release the lever.
Seat tilt adjustment: Adjust the seat to tile forward to a comfortable position somewhere between
sitting and standing. This position might seem strange at first. Experiment with tilt until it feels just
right.
To tilt the seat, pull the Front Lever up. The seat will rock back and forth. Find the position
that feels most comfortable for you, then push the lever down and it will lock in place.
Backrest height adjustment: The backrest should support your lumbar area--the area between the
small of your back just above your pelvis and below the rib cage.
To adjust the backrest height, grasp the backrest on each side while sitting. Pull it up to the
desired height. There are 5 clicks. Releasing the seat at any of the first four clicks will lock
it into place for the height desired. Pulling it all the way up to the 5th click will allow it to
return to the lowest position.
Backrest tilt adjustment: Backrest tilt is correct when you just begin to feel that the backrest is
trying to push you out of the chair.
To tilt the backrest, lean forward and pull the Rear Handle up. The backrest will travel as far
forward as it can. Lean back against the backrest until you find a comfortable position.
Release the lever.
