lifting of heavy paper stacks. The Stacker has an easy-to-use spring-loaded docking
mechanism and sits on four casters, enabling easy transportation of paper stacks within
a facility. The Multi-Purpose Stacker has adjustable Sheet Guide, Long Sheet Guide and
Long Sheet End Stop which allow the user to quickly adjust the machine for di󰀨erent paper
sizes. It can stack papers as small as 210mm (8.27”) x 210mm (8.27”) all the way up to
paper that is 330mm / 13” wide and 1200mm / 47.2” long.
