Operating a Friction Feed Baumfolder
To position the LEFT FEED GUIDE, loosen the wing
nuts (underneath the feed table). Position the guide
approximately ¼ inch to the right of the register table
SIDE GUIDE, and parallel to the left edge of the
FEED TABLE. Tighten the wing nuts.
Place a sheet of paper to be run against the LEFT
FEED GUIDE. Loosen the wing nuts on the RIGHT
FEED GUIDE and move it against the sheet. Leave
enough clearance so the sheet falls freely from the
top of the feeder to the PAPER FEED WHEEL.
Tighten the wing nuts.
The angle of the FEED TABLE affects of the fall of the paper as you load it. A
normal setting for most jobs is with the TABLE BRACES set in the third notch
from the top. Some of the feeders have brackets to move the feed table in or
out by relocating the screw in the different holes in the bracket (see picture).
The best location is the third hole back from the retarder adjustment screw.
Position the RETARDER ROLL by loosening the thumbscrew and moving it to
the center or slightly left of center of the sheet in
the feeder. Move the FEED WHEEL directly over
the retarder roll. Check to insure the setscrew in
the retarder roll is tight and the retarder roll does
not turn. Tighten the setscrew in the feed wheel
so it is secured to the feed wheel shaft.
Mount the PAPER GUIDES on the left and right
edge of the sheet. These will go between the
feed board and the FEED PLATE.
Mount the FEED PLATE FORK on the round bar,
with the fork straddling the retarder roll.
