SET UP
1. Ensure the machine is on a stable surface.
2. Check waste tray is empty and correctly fitted. The tray can be accessed from the left and right sides. The tray has a 'burst feature' that operates when the chip tray is 'over-full'.
3. Ensure the binding platform is located correctly in the machine
4. Ensure the comb-opening lever is pushed backwards.
STEPS TO BIND
1. Select the correct comb diameter using the storage tray.
2. Select the correct punch profile for the sheet size. Select releasable dies as appropriate (holes 15, 20, 21).
3. To cancel a punch, press the switch down at the back. Test punch a sheet.
4. Select the correct back margin depth for number of sheets.
5. Insert the plastic comb into the opening mechanism. Pull comb-opening lever forward to open the comb.
6. Test punch scrap sheets to check edge guide setting.
7. Load punched sheets directly onto the open comb.
8. Empty waste tray regularly - ideally after each use.
DOCUMENT BINDING
1. Punch front and back covers first.
2. Punch sheets in small batches that do not overload the machine or the user.
3. Load punched sheets directly onto the opened comb. Starting with the front of the document.
4. When all punched sheets are loaded onto the comb, push the comb lever backwards to close the comb and remove the bound document.
REMOVABLE BINDING PLATFORM
Galaxy has a unique mobile binding platform. The platform can be lifted from the base and used on a stable surface to bind documents using the normal binding procedure and also allows different users to work together. When not in use, the platform should be stored safely in the punch machine.
CORRECTING A BOUND DOCUMENT
Additional sheets may be included or removed at any time by opening and then dosing the comb as previously described.
REMOVAL OF WASTE CLIPPINGS
The waste tray is located under the machine and is accessed from each side. For best results empty the tray regularly. The tray should be emptied after every 50 operations to ensure no blockages occur.
STORAGE
Lower the lid and punch handle. The Galaxy comb binder is designed to be stored horizontally on the desk.
TROUBLESHOOTING
| Problem | Cause | Solution |
| Punched holes are not central | Edge guide not set | Adjust edge guide until hole pattern is correct |
| Machine will not punch | Blockage | Check waste tray in empty. Check for blockage to paper entry |
| Punch holes are not parallel to edge | Debris is stuck below dies | Take stiff cardboard and slide into the paper entry. Move the cardboard sideways to release any stray clippings into the waste tray |
| Partial holes | Sheets not correctly aligned to punch pattern | Adjust edge guide and test punch scrap sheets until correct |
| Missing holes | Selectable dies are not selected to punch | Check the correct dies are selected to punch holes. To select a die, push selector switch down at the front |
| Sheets will not turn on the bound document | Back margin is too large for a smaller comb | Select the smaller margin depth for combs up to 18mm (11/16") in diameter (2-150 sheets) Select the larger margin depth for combs larger than 18mm (11/16") in diameter (151-500 sheets) |
| Damaged hole edges | Possibly overloading the machine | Punch plastic covers with paper sheets. Reduce number of sheets being punched |
| Waste tray leaks | Waste tray is not correctly inserted or 'burst feature' has activated | Check waste tray is empty and 'burst feature' is closed |
