BINDING A SCRATCH PAD (BOOK WITHOUT COVER)
THICK BOOKS OR BOOKS WITH COATED PAPER:
Roughen book spine 1-3 times. Repeat if necessary.
Roughening opens the paper grain on book spine and
improves binding result with diffi cult materials. Note that
roughening several times increases spine width. Too heavy
roughening results unsquare book spine.
GLUE APPLICATION
For thin books (spine witdth <10 mm), apply glue once or
twice. For thicker books or books with coated paper, apply
glue 2-3 times.
Turn the table back into the starting position by pulling the
hand lever. Given that hot melt tacks (starts to dry) in 2 -
3 seconds, swift but gentle actions provide the best result.
Caution: Do not slam the table against the table limit stops
as this can damage the machine
Push the handle down fi rmly and hold for 5 - 7 seconds to
press the spine and fold the cover.
Release the clamp by lowering the handle and pull it up.
Remove the binding by lifting the turntable slightly with the
clamp handle.
