6.2 Feed Table Adjustment

On the paper feed table there are two guides which

keep the stack of paper properly aligned for feeding into the

folder. Adjust these guides to correspond with the different

widths of paper being fed.

(See Figure 6.2-1)

To adjust the paper feed guides, loosen the two side

guide locking knobs on each guide. Slide the guides from

side to side until the inside edge of each guide is aligned

with the number corresponding to the width of the paper

being folded.

Example: For a 10cm wide sheet, move the side

guides until the inside edges align with the “10” on the feed

table.

An additional check is to lay a sheet of paper on the

feeder, close to but not touching the side guides. Push the

sheet down into the nip of the fold rolls. Then align the

guide by loosening the adjusting knobs and aligning the

guide so that it is parallel to the edge of the paper. When

one side is square, the other side can be moved into position.

Tighten the locking knobs to secure the paper guides

in position.

When you load the actual job, you may have to move

these guides slightly to take care of variations in sheet size.

To feed properly, the paper must slide freely between these

guides.

Adjust the air blow to float the sheet stack using the

sheets. The feeder valve knob may be used to balance the air

between the left and right side of the feed table.(See Figure
