Frequently Asked Questions - IB271090 GBC

What types of rings can I use with the IB271090 binder?

The GBC IB271090 binder is compatible with double wire rings (wire binding) with a diameter of 6 to 30 mm. Use 19-hole rings for A4 format.

How to adjust the punching margin?

Turn the margin adjustment knob located on the side of the machine. The margin can be adjusted from 2 to 6 mm to center or offset the punch.

What to do if the machine does not punch correctly?

Check that the blades are not dull. Clean the punching heads with a brush and lubricate the shafts with a drop of light oil. Make sure the number of sheets does not exceed capacity (20 sheets).

How many sheets can I bind at once?

The binding capacity depends on the ring diameter. With 30 mm rings, you can bind up to 300 sheets (60 g/m²). For thicker sheets, reduce the number.

The machine makes an abnormal noise, what should I do?

Immediately stop the machine. Check that no foreign object is blocking the mechanisms. Clean the gears and lubricate the moving parts. If the noise persists, contact customer service.

How to clean my GBC binder?

Unplug the machine. Use a soft slightly damp cloth for the exterior. For the punching heads, brush off paper residue and apply a drop of oil on each shaft. Do not use solvents.

Can I bind documents of a different size than A4?

Yes, the machine accepts paper sizes up to 310 × 240 mm. For smaller sizes, adjust the paper guides. The number of holes will vary depending on the size.

Where to find spare parts for the IB271090?

Spare parts (blades, dies, combs) are available from authorized GBC dealers or on the official website. Use the model number IB271090 to identify compatible parts.

What to do if the machine does not turn on?

Check that the power cord is plugged in and that the outlet works. If the fuse has blown, replace it with a fuse of the same type (2A, 250V). If the problem persists, contact a technician.

Is it possible to bind cardboard covers?

Yes, the binder can punch and bind cardboard covers up to a thickness of 0.5 mm. Use the manual punching function for more control.

Special notice

Thank you for choosing a GBC Binding machine. We aim to produce quality binding machines at an affordable price, with many advanced features to enable you to create excellent results every time. Before using your machine for the first time, please take a few minutes to read through this guide and retain these instructions for future reference.

Tips on use

The cutting blades of your MultiBind machine were coated with oil during manufacture in order to protect against corrosion and to ensure easy running.

• Before using the unit properly for the first time, it is advisable to carry out several punching operations using old paper in order to remove all traces of the oil from the components.
• Test the punching results using old paper before you punch the final document.
• Use only original GBC accessories and parts.

The unit is maintenance-free when used correctly for its intended application.

Safety instructions

YOUR SAFETY AS WELL AS THE SAFETY OF OTHERS IS IMPORTANT TO ACCO BRANDS EUROPE. IN THIS INSTRUCTION MANUAL AND ON THE PRODUCT ARE IMPORTANT SAFETY MESSAGES. READ THESE MESSAGES CAREFULLY.

Please note that your MultiBind machine has been designed exclusively for punching and binding paper material and PVC plastic foils. Only use the unit for this purpose and do not attempt to process any other materials. This will ensure a long service life and prevent any damage to the mechanical function of your binding machine.

• In order to avoid overloading your machine, please refer to the maximum punch guide located on the front of your machine before punching.
• When punching PVC/PP covers, we recommend the cover be punched with some paper either side.
• DO NOT punch metallic objects such as staples or paper clips.
• Please empty the waste tray regularly.
• Ensure that the machine is operated on a flat stable surface.
• Never lift the machine by the punching handle. Always use the hand grips located on the side of the machine.
• To avoid risk of injury DO NOT put your fingers into the wire binding channel.
• The binder is not to be exposed to temperature / humidity conditions that would cause condensation. Maximum ambient temperature: 40°C

Preparing the unit

• Place the unit on a stable surface.
• Fold up the document stand (cover) (see fig 1.1)
• Push the two transport locks of the transport guard inwards (see fig 1.2)
• Move the punch handle upwards until the limit stop (see fig 1.3)
• Move the binding lever upwards until the limit stop. A spring in the unit presses the binding lever a few centimetres to the side so that you can use this easily. (see fig 2)

Your MultiBind machine is now ready for use.

Custom Binding

The MultiBind 320 has 7 de-selectable punching pins to punch different paper sizes (e.g. A5)

To adjust the punching pins: (see fig 10)

• Fold the transparent covering upwards.
• Press the button relevant to each blade (button down = blade in position, button up = blade retracted).

Note: The blades can only be retracted and re-inserted when the punch handle has been moved to the upward position.

Comb Binding

1 Select the correct comb size (See fig 11)

- Insert the entire document to be bound into the binder channel. Press the binding lever downwards and read off the required comb size from the scale on the mobile pressure bar. Use the table if you intend to bind more than approx. 125 sheets of 80g paper (comb larger than 14mm).

Max. Sheet Number	Comb Size

165 19
195 22
225 25
240 28
280 32

② Insert and open the comb (see fig 12)

• Place the plastic comb with the open side facing upwards into the comb holder.
• Press the binding lever downwards so that the comb opens fully and the material to be bound can be inserted easily.

Note (MB320 only): Many Identical documents can be bound quickly by setting the machine to remember the exact position you opened the comb to. To do this simply slide the comb opening button upwards until it stops. The comb can now not open any further than your setting. (see fig 13)

3 Load the punched paper onto the comb (see fig 14)

- Load each punched paper stack onto the comb.

4 Close the comb (see fig 15)

• Move the binding lever back to its uppermost position.
• Remove your bound document from the unit.

How to bind using 21 loop wires (MB 320 only)

Wires are intended for one-off use only. In contrast to the plastic combs these cannot be re-opened and closed.

1 Select the correct wire size (see fig 16)

• Hold the material to be bound in the wire binding channel
• Press the binding lever downwards and read off the required wire size from the left and scale of the pressure bar.

② Insert the wire (see fig 17)

- Insert the wire with the open side facing front into the wire holder.

3 Insert the document onto the wire (see fig 18)

• Load each punched paper stack onto the wire.
• Remove the document with the wire from the wire holder.

4 Closing the wire (see fig 19)

• Slide the button downwards. (see fig 13)
• Using your left hand, hold the document in the binding channel in such a way that the wire stops with the open end facing down.
• With your right hand press the binding lever down as far as is necessary until the wire is perfectly closed.

Note: Many Identical documents can be bound quickly by setting the machine to remember the exact position you closed the wire to. To do this simply slide the wire closing button upwards until it stops. The wire can now not close any further than your setting. (see fig 13)

Transporting or storing the unit

① Locking the unit (see fig 20)

• Press the binder lever towards the unit and fold this downwards (1).
