B. SINGLE DIE HOLDER USE
Scoring Your Cover
Using the Single Die Holder requires one scoring
action for each score you want to make.
1. Set your Fastback®binder to PERFECTBACK mode.
Bind your pages only with a Perfectback™ PS strip.
2. After it has cooled, place your bound book block
between the Book Thickness Rings (Figure 53).
Push the two rings together (A) and tighten the
Book Thickness Locking Knob (B). Remove your
book block.
3. Slide your cover under the transparent bar until
your title is centered under the single silver line
(Figure 54). Make sure the bottom of your cover
rests against the Left Stop and the Guide Rail.
Push the Lever to the right so your cover will not
move.
4. With the Centering Guide Locking Knob loosened,
slide the Centering Guide under your cover until
the right edge of the cover lines up with the
middle of the X (Figure 55). Then tighten the
centering Guide Locking Knob.
5. Bring the lever upright to unclamp your cover.
Lean over the top of the Centering Guide to see
the yellow arrows on the back side of the Book
Thickness Rings. Slide your cover over so its right
edge lines up with the point of the right arrow
(Figure 56). Push the Lever to the left to score —
you have just made your rear spine edge score.
If you wish to add a rear cover secondary score,
move your cover to the other end of the same
yellow arrow (figure 57) and execute another
score.
6. To make your front spine edge score, slide your
cover over so its right edge lines up with the point
of the left yellow arrow on the back of the
Book Thickness Rings (Figure 58). Push the Lever
to the left to score.
If you want to add a front cover secondary score,
move your cover to the other end of that same
yellow arrow (figure 59) and execute another
score.
The distance between the two middle scores on your
cover is now the same as the thickness of your book.
