CONT

Les organes séparateurs travaillent généralement en coin arrière de la feuille.... Sur certains margeurs l'organe appelé drague appuie sur le coin de la pile en tournant vers l'intérieur pour créer une ondulation du coin qui affecte quelques feuilles. Les deux ou trois feuilles ainsi bouclées se séparent l'une de l'autre.
