ST960 Manual Dual Comb and Wire Binding Machine

Welcome to New Zealand Binding, in this video we are going to demonstrate the ST960 which is our professional level, dual, plastic Comb and 3 to 1 Manual Wire machine.

  1. For 3 to 1. First you’ll need to set the dial on the left, check the pins are in the correct position for the page dimension you are using, in this case 34 pushed in for A4.
  2. Before you start any binding always test with a piece of scrap paper to ensure that the holes are centred along the length of the document.
  3. You can adjust the position of the holes by moving the paper guide and margin lever.
  4. Now that we’re ready to bind make sure pages are level and place the document into the machine ensuring it is tight against the paper guide.
  5. When ready pull down the large handle on the right to punch the paper and put the pages face down on the desk.
  6. We recommend punching no more than 25 sheets of 80gsm or 2 clear acetate covers in one go to avoid damaging the machine.
  7. Once all pages have been punched for a neat finish move the back page to the front as this will hide the join inside your document once bound.
  8. Make sure all holes line up and place document on the edge of the desk with a slight overhang.
  9. Adjust the clamp to the size of the wire you are using.
  10. Thread the wire through the holes just enough so that the C opening is facing towards you.
  11. Pinch the bottom of the document just above the wire tightly to lock it in position and carefully place the document in the magnetic clamp, ensuring the wire is flat.
  12. Pull the handle towards you slowly until the clamp grips the wire and then squeeze firmly.
  13. Remove the document and ensure wire is clamped sufficiently; the clamp can be adjusted using the dial if required.
  14. The join should be clearly visible but closing the back page will conceal this inside the document.
  15. Your document is now ready.
    If using plastic combs, again set the dial on the left, pull out all of the 3 to 1 pins and check the pins are in the correct position for the page dimension you are using, in this case 21 pushed in for A4.
  16. You can adjust the position of the holes by moving the paper guide and margin lever.
  17. Now that we’re ready to bind make sure pages are level and place the document into the machine ensuring it is tight against the paper guide.
  18. When ready pull down the large handle on the right to punch the paper and put the pages face down on the desk.
  19. We recommend punching no more than 25 sheets of 80gsm paper or 2 clear acetate covers in one go to avoid damaging the machine.
  20. Once all sheets have been punched place the comb over the teeth of spreader.
  21. Pull the handle on the left slowly, making sure the comb opens towards you.
  22. Place the document face down onto the comb so that it doesn’t come apart in use.
  23. Then push the handle forward gently to close.
  24. Your document is now ready and can be removed.
  25. Don’t forget when binding to empty the tray regularly as this will avoid the machine getting jammed.
