Product Overview
The Triumph 4810 D is a robust semi-automatic paper cutter. Key components include the cutting blade, paper clamp, back gauge, and control panel. Understanding the function of each part is crucial for effective operation.
Setup
Unpacking and Placement
- Carefully remove the paper cutter from its packaging. Retain packaging for future transport if needed.
- Place the machine on a sturdy, level surface capable of supporting its weight. Ensure adequate space around the machine for operation and maintenance.
- Verify all components listed in the packing list are present and undamaged.
Power Connection
- Connect the power cord to a grounded electrical outlet with the correct voltage as specified on the machine's rating plate.
- Do not use extension cords unless absolutely necessary, and ensure they are rated for the machine's power requirements.
Operating Instructions
Basic Operation
- Power On: Locate the main power switch, usually on the side or front panel, and turn the machine on.
- Adjusting the Back Gauge: Use the hand crank or control knob to move the back gauge to the desired cutting dimension. Refer to the integrated measuring scale for accuracy.
- Loading Paper: Carefully place the stack of paper against the back gauge and align it squarely. Ensure the paper stack does not exceed the maximum cutting height.
- Clamping Paper: Engage the paper clamp mechanism to firmly secure the paper stack. This prevents shifting during the cut.
- Making the Cut: With both hands, simultaneously activate the two-hand cut buttons (if applicable) or engage the cutting lever. The blade will descend, cut the paper, and retract.
- Removing Paper: Once the blade has fully retracted, release the paper clamp and remove the cut paper.
Cutting Tips
- For best results, ensure the blade is sharp and properly aligned.
- Do not attempt to cut materials beyond the machine's specified capacity.
- Periodically check the squareness of your cuts and adjust the back gauge if necessary.
