3. Installation / connecting power
3.1 Positioning the Access B400
Place the letter opener on a horizontal surface, observing the instructions under 2.2. Position the letter
collecting tray (12) to the right of the machine.
3.2 Connecting to mains electricity supply
Without presetting, the letter opener is ready for service
with a mains electricity supply between 100 and 240V
and a frequency of 50 or 60 Hz.
Connect the power supply unit (1) to the power connector
(2). Connect the mains cable suitable for your country to
the power supply unit (1) and the socket.
Attention! The socket must be close to the letter
opener and easily accessible.
4. Getting ready for operation
Place the mains switch (3) at the back of the appliance to
position x1y. The diode (4) at the front side glows steadily red
to indicate that the letter opener is ready for operation.
On ecological grounds, please switch off the letter opener
after use via the mains switch (3) (diode (4) goes dark).
5. Working with the Access B400
5.1 Pre-sorting / readying letters for opening
Following the preparatory steps below will greatly aid problem-free letter opening thereafter. Please
observe these instructions:
Separate out letters that are thicker than 10 mm and open them by hand. The Access B400
adapts automatically to letter thicknesses up to 10 mm.
Separate out large-sized letters (e.g. C4 / B4 formats) and short letters (e.g. C6), and open
them separately using the Access B400.
Other letter formats with the same or closely similar length (e.g. C6/5, C5, B5 etc.) may be
mixed together for opening.
It is preferable to open letters along the opposite edge to the flap:
Envelope flaps are frequently torn, or poorly closed if a letter is overfilled, which may
-
cause jams during opening and/or damage the envelope contents.
Protruding envelope flap edges may be problematic when letters are fed under the slitting
-
mechanism.
It is better to open letters with the envelope window facing down.
Knock a stack of letters on the table along the side opposite to the slitting edge, to shift the letter
contents as far away as possible from the slitting edge (minimises the risk of damage to letter
contents).
