Min. Sheet Size

8 ½” x 11”* Max Sheet Size 14” x 20” Max Sheet Thickness 400 GSM* Min Sheet Thickness 100 GSM* Max Speed 6000 Sheets an Hour Electrical Requirements and Specifications Power Requirement: 110v, 50-60HZ, AC Circuit Protection: 20 AMP Circuit Breaker NOTE: Older buildings, overloaded lines, and bad grounds can affect the operation of your Dyna-Cut. A dedicated line is best. *NOTE: The Dyna-Cut is capable of handling many types of applications above and beyond the standard specifications. It is possible to feed quite a variety of jobs. However, the performance of the Dyna-Cut on these special applications is directly related to the experience of the operator.

Read through the owner’s manual. Follow instructions CAREFULLY.

• NEVER use a wet area. Electric shock could occur. • Use a GROUNDED outlet and a GROUNDED circuit. Do not use undergrounded equipment on the same circuit. • Always use a dedicated line. DO NOT use with line splitting surge protector. DURING USE: • Keep fingers and hands away from all rotating parts. • Keep cords clear of moving parts. AFTER USE: • Turn off machine at the power switch, then unplug the main power cord. This will prevent damage to your machine by power/voltage spikes. • To unplug cords, always grasp the plug body, never pull on cords to disconnect. Wire fatigue and possible shock could results from improper disconnect procedures. BE ALERT! BE CAREFUL!

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

The Dyna-Cut is a precision machine. It is very important to keep it free of excessive dust, dirt, and foreign matter. We recommend that you keep the machine covered when not in use. BEARINGS: The Dyna-Cut uses 2 different style bearings sealed roller bearing and bronze bushings. Sealed roller bearings and are designed to be self-lubricating, however dirt and dust can get into them causing clogging and dirt build up. Bronze bushings need to be oiled on a regular basis. The bronze bushings on this machine are located on the operator side frame and have the perf shaft and exit shaft through them. There are also 2 bushings located on the feed drive shaft. To oil these bronze bushings run the machine in feed mode and add a few drops of oil just inside the shaft collar that hold the shaft in place. Also add a few drops to the inside of the machine so both sides of the bushing gets oil. It is recommended to occasionally oil the sealed roller bearings under heavy use. REMOVEABLE SCREWS: When these show signs of wear or stripping, replace as soon as possible. If these strip or hollow out they can be costly to remove. If you do keep your FC114 AIR clean and in top condition, it will give you years of service.

TOUCH SCREEN CONTROLLER

TOUCH SCREEN OPERATION When the machine is turned on, the display may take up to 7 seconds for the home screen to display. There is a screen saver that will turn the display off if the machine is not touched within 30 minutes. The power light will stay illuminated letting you know the machine is still on. COUNT LOGO AND SERVICE ACCESS If the logo is pressed a password screen is displayed. This is for factory and service access only. This screen is for manufacturer use only. The password is not given out.

These control the feed platform where the paper is loaded. Auto up will raise the Elevator until

height sensor located in the Vacuum system is triggered. Up and Down arrows will raise and lower the elevator while the button is pushed. Elevator Stop will stop the elevator if auto up has been pushed. TRANSPORT MOTOR CONTROLS Pressing the ON button will turn on the transport motor which will sync speed with the cylinders. Jog will move paper forward or backwards on the Registration Table.

CUT ADJUST CONTROLS

Use these controls to vertically shift cut on the paper. Each unit on the cut adjust is a 0.10”. To shift the cut towards the top of the page use the “-” in order to shift the cut towards the bottom of the page use “+”. To adjust the side margins of the paper use the margin adjust knob. This will horizontally shift the paper on the registration table. Turning the knob in the decrease margin direction will make the margin on the page smaller while increase margin direction will make the margin on the page larger. In order to adjust the skew on the sheet use the knob located directly in front of the marble rack. Margin Adjust Knob Skew Adjust Knob

SETTING UP YOUR DYNA-CUT

INSTALLING A FLEXABLE DIE 1. Take the pressure off of the dies using the hydra jacks this will make the cylinder easier to spin. 2. Rotate the cylinder so that the 3 threaded guide holes are facing you. 3. Install the guild pins these will help line up the die. 4. Place die one evenly until the leading edge is flat against the magnetic cylinder. 5. Remove the guild pins you may need to use an Allen tool in order to remove. 6. Rotate the cylinder forward by hand this will pull the die onto the magnetic cylinder once it is fully on the cylinder in sure that the lines on the front and rear of the die line up this will show if there is any skew on the die install. REMOVING A FLEXABLE DIE 1. Take the pressure off of the dies using the hydra jacks this will make the cylinder easier to spin. 2. Rotate the cylinder so that the seam of the die is facing you 3. Use the die removal tool. Slide it under one corner of the die pull the die off of the magnetic cylinder. Carefully begin to pull the die off of the cylinder. Note that the sides and knife edges of the die are very sharp handle with care always move slowly and make sure you have steady grip.

SETTING UP YOUR DYNA-CUT

DELIVERY TRAY INSTALLATION The motorized delivery is recommended to be installed by two people although it can be done with one. Locate the exit support shaft of the machine. Install the hooks on the delivery tray to the cuts outs show on the shaft below, now support the end of the tray and position the arms into the larger slots on the exit panel.

SETTING UP YOUR DYNA-CUT

DELIVERY TRAY SENSOR SET UP In order to have the delivery tray properly advance you need to insure the optic sensor is set for your media. To set place a piece of your media on the table under the sensor. When properly set the orange light will come on and advance the belts until the media clears the sensor. The sensor is a laser diffuse contrast sensor for low contrast detection application. It is also able to be set for dark operate or light operate. If you are running media that is darker then the belt of the delivery tray you will need the sensor in dark operate while if you are running media that is lighter then the belt of the delivery tray you will need to be in light operate. To switch between light and dark operate first hold down the mode button for longer then 2 seconds. Then use either button to cycle through the menu. Cycle until the display reads (out) then press both buttons at the same time. The display will now read (Lo) or (do). (Lo) Stands for Light Operate and (do) for Dark Operate. Use either button to cycle between the two options when you have selected the Operate that you need hold down both buttons this will save your selection and exit the menu. To set the sensitivity of the sensor clear the table then hold the Teach button down until the display flashes SEt and 1St alternately then press the teach button to set the table as the first target. The display will now alternate between SEt and 2nd. Place your media underneath the sensor and press the teach button again this sets your media as the second target. If set correctly now when the sensor sees your media the orange light on the sensor with come on and the belts will advance until your media clears the sensor. You can download the full manual for this sensor at bannerengineering.com under the Q3X Series section.

LOADING THE FEEDER

1. Lower the elevator in order to load the paper. 2. Slide the side guide to the side. 3. Fan the paper then load making sure the paper is pushed to front of the duct wall and pushed to the right paper stop. 4. Position the left side paper stop according to the paper size flush against the paper stack. Place the rear paper stop flush against the rear of the stack. Insert the paper weight in the rear paper stop. SETTING UP THE AUTOMATIC FEEDER

SETTING THE AIR CHANNELS

1. Set the leading edge blower by using the adjustment knob under the E-Stop button. 2. The paper should start to float and separate from the stack before being pulled up to the vacuum belt. SETTING TABLE HEIGHT AND SETTING 1. Clockwise rotation will decrease the distance of the sensor relative to the paper. Fanned out paper is spread out more. 2. Anticlockwise rotation will increase the distance of the sensor relative to the paper. Fanned out paper is made more compact. 3. Set height so that the vacuum belt only pulls one sheet at a time.

SETTING UP THE PAPER PATH

1. Raise the elevator all the way up with paper loaded. 2. Press the feed roller release button on the control panel 3. Slide the first page forward until it is just entering the marble rack. 4. Adjust paper stack guilds by loosening them then slide both while keeping them tight to the paper stack. Adjust the whole stack so that the first page about an 1/8” from the alignment ledge. 5. Move first page back and press the feed roller release button. 6. Run a test sheet if you need to adjust your side margin make your adjustment then restart at step one. At the start of a new run you will want to align the feeder closely with the marble rack in order to minimize skew. To due so follow the instructions below.

SETTING PRESSURE ON THE CYLINDER

1. Use 3 pins to line up die on to the magnetic cylinder. 2. Roll the cylinder by had to put the die on. 3. Insure that the vertical marks on the die line up to verify the die is on straight. 4. Set the pressure on the cylinders by adjusting the hydro jacks on top of the machine. 5. Set the pressure to 300 psi to start. Run a test sheet and increase pressure until you get the desired cut. 6. Excessive pressure can cause premature die-wear.

SETTING UP SCRAP SEPARATOR

1. In order to be able to separate the scrap you will need vertical channels in the die for the diverter fingers to ride on. The number of fingers required will depend on sheet size and thickness. 2. Line up diverter fingers with channels in the die. 3. Set the diverter bar into slots and tighten set screws 4. Run single sheet to check position of diverters and insure proper scrap diversion. 5. If not properly aligned you will get a paper jam which you will need to clear. Turn off the machine or press the e-stop button before attempting to clear jam. 6. Make necessary adjustments retest until you get a clean diversion of scrap.

SETTING DELIVERY TRAY

1. To get the output of cut material to shingle and stack neatly you need to adjust the speed and plastic wheel placement. 2. The plastic wheels need to be set so that the cut material is hitting the wheel at the same time as it is coming in contact with the belts on the table. 3. Adjusting your speed will adjust how spaced out the shingles are.
