invested in a highly capable binding

machine that will give you years of reliable

service. To help protect this investment be

certain to take advantage of the GBC

Equipment Maintenance Agreement

(EMA). The EMA provides your PF-3200

with proper ongoing maintenance and

care, helping to ensure the years of quality

performance and long life built into the

machine. Without an EMA, a charge for

time and labor would result from every

normal maintenance or repair service call.

An EMA for your PF-3200 eliminates this

possibility by providing you with a low,

fixed annual cost for protecting your

valuable machine investment. For full

details about purchasing an EMA, contact

your local GBC Branch Office or contact:

CAUTION: WHEN CHOOSING A

DETACHABLE LINE CORD FOR

USE WITH YOUR PF-3200,

ALWAYS OBSERVE THE

This equipment has been tested and found

to comply with the limits for a Class A

digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the

FCC Rules. These limits are designed to

provide reasonable protection against

harmful interference when the equipment

is operated in a commercial environment.

This equipment generates, uses, and can

radiate radio frequency energy and, if not

installed and used in accordance with the

Operator Manual, may cause harmful

interference to radio communications.

Operation of this equipment in a residential

area is likely to cause harmful interference

in which case the user will be required to

correct the interference at his/her own

expense.

FOLLOWING PRECAUTIONS:

The cordset consist of three parts; the

attachment plug, cordage and appliance

inlet. Each of these components must

have European regulatory approvals for

safety.

The following minimum electrical ratings

for the specific cordset are published for

safety purposes. DO NOT USE

CORDSETS THAT DO NOT MEET THE

FOLLOWING MINIMUM ELECTRICAL

REQUIREMENTS.

shall not exceed 3 meters in length. A

cordset with component electrical ratings

greater than the minimum specified

electrical ratings may be substituted.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION: PF-3200 has

implemented secondary

thermostat to prevent the glue

tank temperature from going over

392°F (200°C). When it occurs, the

power of PF-3200 will be automatically

turned off. You have to wait for the glue

tank to cool down before you can

restart the machine. If this problem

occurs again, call your authorized

dealer for service.

In case of EMERGENCY:

1. Press the “EMERGENCY” button when

you encounter a problem during

operation or bookbinding. This will shut

down all the actions of PF-3200, which

include the stations and motors.

Meanwhile, the LED DISPLAY of the

control panel will display and flash the

“STOP” symbol.

GLUE ADJUSTMENT

REPLENISHING THE GLUE TANK

The glue level may require adjustment

when the thickness of the book or pad

varies. Use the following book spine

illustrations for guidelines.

Note that the thickness of the cover

sheet is an important factor for you to

make a good spine. Use only the

suitable thickness of the cover sheet

associated with the appropriate glue-

meter position to make a good book.

CAUTION: GREAT CARE MUST

BE TAKEN WHEN HANDLING

HOT MOLTEN GLUE. BE SURE

NOT TO PLACE AN EXCESSIVE

AMOUNT OF GLUE IN THE TANK AT

ONE TIME. KEEP IT AT SUCH A LEVEL

THAT THE GLUE WILL NOT GO OVER

THE MAX. LINE IN THE TANK WHILE

THE APPLICATION DRUM IS

• Increasing the holt-melt glue when

ROTATING. THIS WILL PREVENT GLUE

FROM SPILLING OUT OF THE TANK.

NIPPING PRESSURE CONTROL

Glue Replacement:

The nipping pressure control knob is

located on the left-side of the machine

(next to the power switch). It allows you to

adjust the nipping pressure based on the

thickness of the books and the quality of

the book spine. Normally the thinner the

books, the more the nipping pressure.

The factory setting is set to the mark

on the scale.

WARNING: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO

REMOVE THE DRAINING TRAY

UNTIL THE GLUE COOLS DOWN.

• Decreasing hot-melt glue when

1. Warm up the PF-3200 as described in

the STARTUP section on page 5.

2. Make sure the draining tray is covered

by Aluminum foil and positioned

underneath the glue tank so that the

tank drains into it.

3. Use the 6 mm Allen wrench to open

which is located on top of the glue tank.

• Adjusting the glue level:

1. Turn the glue adjustment lock knob

counter clockwise to loosen.

4. Close (Clockwise) the glue drain Allen

screw when the glue stops flowing.

Wait until the draining tray cools down.

Carefully empty the draining tray and

put a new Aluminum foil on it.

• Turn the knob clockwise to increase the

nipping pressure when round spine

occurs or making thinner books.

Reposition tray and continue draining

the glue tank.

2. Increase the amount of glue by sliding

the knob to the right at the appropriate

position.

5. Fill the glue tank with new glue up to

quality is found to be unacceptable, use

the glue replacement procedures or call

your authorized dealer.
