The FD 90 / FD 95 Electric Rotary Perforators are designed to perforate sheets allowing for easy separation. The friction
feeding system can perforate up to 113 / 118 sheets per minute, and can create up to 5 parallel perforations in a single
pass (two perforating tools included). The telescoping outfeed and extendable infeed table allow for processing sheets up
to11”x17”.Adjustablesideguidesandne-tuningknobsallowforprecisepositioningofsheetspriortoperforating.

The squareness of the feed table to the infeed can be adjusted using the skew adjustment knob (17). Check the ideal center
position by aligning the cross position mark (18). The feed table extension can be used to support large paper sheets (9).
Note: Sheets weighing 180 g/m² and more must be inserted one at a time.

Outfeed table adjustment
Adjust the output table (2) by sliding the table outward, depending on the size of the sheet being processed.
For easier stacking of larger sheets attach the bridge (11) and magnetic side guides (10). These facilitate sheet stacking and
substantially reduce paper jamming.
Note: If the table is not extended above the pad, do not overload it, as the table might become damaged or bent.

When the tools are positioned, the screws must be tightened and the tools secured in the required position. Return the shaft
with the blade guides into the machine to its working position near the perforating wheels.
It is possible to install a maximum of 5 perforating tool sets including the blade guide (28). (Two sets of perforating tools are

Replacing & Adjusting Perforating Tools or Creasing Wheels (cont.)
NOTE: Always put indented cutting tools on the upper shaft (20). Place the tools (21, 27) on the shaft in a mirroring way
starting from the center of the shaft. An odd pair of tools must always be oriented according to the half of the adjusted
sheet on which that pair of tools is placed. The guide pulleys (19, 24) must always be on the outer edge of the document
in a mirrored position. If the tools are oriented only on one side of the document, the mirroring plane equals one half of the
distance between the tools located in the farthest positions.

Removing Covers
The pressure of the separator on the feed tire (30) of the
feeding shaft must be adjusted to accurately feed the paper
from the feeding table (1).
Turn the separator adjustment wheel (31) clockwise to
increase the pressure on the separator. If a thicker sheet
is fed into the feeding table, the pressure of the separator
should be decreased by turning the wheel counterclockwise.
