5. If you have a job where you want to fold in one plate only, pivot the
plate hold-down out of the way. Lift up slightly on the back of the
plate you are not using and pull toward you. Turn the plate end for
end and reinstall it with the deflector toward the fold rollers. Turn the
plate hold-downs down toward the fold plates to lock it in position.
6. The stacker has 3 ½, 5 ½, and 8 ½ printed on the
outside edges of the stacker. Run one sheet through
the folder and measure the length. Set the stacker
wheels so that the signature (folded sheet) is against
the wheels just as it clears the pull out tires on the slitter
shaft. Move the deflector assembly, (hold-downs), on
the black bar of the slitter shaft to guide the signature under the stacker wheels leaving enough
space between the stacker belt and the deflector for the signature
to move. The stacker wheels should ride on the stacker belt. To
move the stacker belt if necessary, loosen the setscrew in the drive
spool, and move it to the location needed. The belt and rear spool
can be slid over to line up with the front spool.
7. The operating controls consist of an Off/On power switch, which is an overload reset also. This
supplies power to the equipment. If the folder has a jam up and shuts off, turn the switch off and
back on again. The Pump Off/On switch is to turn the pump on
and off. The Speed Potentiometer controls the speed of the
folder. Turn to the right to speed the folder up or to the left to
slow the folder down. The counter to show the number of
sheets folded with a small button to reset the counter when you
change jobs. When you want to run a sheet/sheets, turn on
the power switch, then turn on the pump switch to run the
number of sheets you want to run, then turn off the pump. Use the pump switch to start and stop the
paper flow. If you change the speed of the folder, the length of the fold may also change. Check
the fold after any speed changes.
