Platen Stop Assembly
NOTE: The forms thickness lever is part of the platen stop assembly.
Removal
1. Prepare the printer for maintenance (page 230).
2. Loosen—do not remove—the 7/64 inch clamp screw and pull the platen
stop assembly off the platen shaft. (See page 350, items 12 through 15.)
Installation
1. Install the platen stop assembly on the right hand platen shaft, pressing
the interlock switch out of the way as the lever slides past it. Torque the
7/64 inch clamp screw to 18 inch-pounds (2.03 N•m). (See page 350.)
Open and close the forms thickness lever to make sure the clamp screw
does not touch the right ribbon guide.
2. Return the printer to normal operation (page 231).
