Monthly Equipment Maintenance Tips: BOOKLETMAKERS need to be cleaned monthly. Coated stock papers, powderspray, toner, ink, and paper lint can block sensors, cover fold rollers and feed belts. You will experience more frequent mis-feeds and jams with a dirty machine. Compressed air is one way to keep you machine clean. Fold rollers and rubber belts need to be cleaned with soap/water, alcohol, or roller cleaner. Remember to put a drop of oil on pivot points and brass bushings. NOTE: (Check your operator manual to ensure you use the correct cleaning product for your machine.) PAPER DRILL BITS need to be lubricated and checked often. The main reason drill bits break is because they are dull. Drill bits can be sharpened with a hand held sharpener available from Bud's Graphics. After sharpening several times, you will need to replace the drill bit. If you do a lot of drilling, make sure to lubricate the drill bit often. Lubricate with a wax stick (available from Bud's Graphics part number CM-4688 $2.78 each) making sure to get wax inside and outside of the bit. This will lengthen the life of the bit and make drilling easier. Check back often for more maintenance tips! PAPER CUTTERS require monthly maintenance. Check your operator manual for lubrication points on your specific cutter. Lubrication points usually include the backgauge screw, knife gibs, blade holder swing-arms, and paper clamp slide points. Inspect the knife for nicks or dullness. Nicks in the blade are usually seen as a pattern on the cut edge of a stack of paper. Knife dullness may show up as the top sheets bending over, not cutting the bottom sheet, or unusual machine noise. With heavy usage, change the hydraulic fluid once a year. PAPER FOLDERS need the rollers checked periodically for excess ink and toner buildup. Most makes of folders have rollers with a dull finish. If your rollers look glossy, then there is a build-up of ink or toner. Use recommended roller washes such as Baum Sure-Wash to clean your rollers. If this does not cut through the build-up, you may consider a roller deglazer. Ink and toner build-up can affect the accuracy of your fold and cause premature wear in the machine. Keeping your rollers in good condition will make it last longer and give you less headaches. Order your Baum Sure-Wash from us! email: budsgraphics@sbcglobal.net and specify quart or gallon size PRINTING PRESSES require weekly and monthly maintenance. Check your roller stripes and cylinder pressures. Even roller stripes will give you consistent print and quality. Proper plate to blanket pressure gives better transfer of ink to the paper resulting in sharper print. You may need a serviceman to check these pressures. Doing this will extend the life of the printing press, reduce service calls, and save you a headache. Also check your rubber blanket for high/low spots.
