REGISTER OPERATION

Use the fluted knob (Figure 19-1) to slide the side guide

(19-2) with the marble holder (19-3) to the required location

1/16" away from the pile stack.

Move the sheet support (19-4) to the right hand side of

the sheet.

Place the steel and/or plastic marbles into the marble

holder (19-3). It is recommended to have at least two steel

marbles in the first four to six positions closest to the pile

feeder end.

The succeeding positions can be filled with steel or

plastic marbles depending on the stiffness of the paper. For

registering oblong sheets it is recommended to have at least

50% steel and 50% plastic marbles alternating in the marble

holder.

Clip-on sheet hold-downs (19-5) placed across the

register table prevent the sheets from rising. The hold-down

with the angle-formed end is to be placed in front of the

vacuum wheel.

The fluted knob (19-6) provides microadjust-ment of

the side guide (19-2). Knurled knobs (19-7) provide bias

adjustment for the side guide for adjusting sheets that are

not square or for other unusual conditions.

The double sheet control (Figure 20) is adjusted to the

thickness of the paper being fed by pulling up the lever (20-

1) and inserting two paper strips (20-2) of the sheets to be

folded in the clip at the back of the lever.

The feeler segment remains inoperative when a single

sheet is passing through. When double sheets are being fed

through, the feeler segment is pulled against a microswitch

and the double sheet is stopped. Sheet feeding is stopped

and the message "2 sheet" appears on the counter readout.

The message remains until the double sheet is removed.

Raise the lever (20-1) to remove the double sheet.

1.0 DOUBLE SHEET DETECTOR

The double sheet detector consists of a scanner element,

microswitch and a free-wheel roller.

If the setting for paper thickness is exceeded, the

scanner element trips the microswitch, closing the magnetic

valve for the suction cycle so that sheet transfer is stopped

instantaneously. While the double sheet is stopped, the

sheets that are in the machine continue to be folded.

The double sheet stop must be set so that the scanner

probe remains untouched when a single sheet of paper

passes through. When two or more sheets are detected, it

must trigger the stop mechanism. (See Figure 21)
