4-12-3 Gap adjustments inside the buckle chutes

Normally, it is not necessary to adjust the gaps.
Sometimes the fold position for a buckle chute is not
consistent. You may be able to correct this by reduc-
ing the gap inside the buckle chute. If sheet does not
enter the buckle chute smoothly, widen the gap
inside the buckle chute.
1. Remove the buckle chute.
2. Loosen the lock nut.
3. Adjust the gap inside the buckle chute by turning
the set screw. (There are four set screws for each
buckle chute.) To make the gap wider, turn the
screw clockwise.
Measure between the upper guide and the gate for
the gap inside the buckle chute. The standard gap
setting and the adjustable range are as follows:
- 1st buckle chute - 0.5 mm (0.02")
(Adjustable between 0.5 - 1.5 mm [0.02" - 0.06"])
- 2nd buckle chute - 0.8 mm (0.031")
(Adjustable between 0.5 - 1.5 mm [0.02" - 0.06"])
- 3rd and 4th buckle chutes - 2.0 mm (0.079")
(Adjustable between 1.5 - 2.5 mm [0.06" - 0.1"])
- 5th and 6th buckle chutes - 2.3 mm (0.091")
(Adjustable between 1.5 - 2.5 mm [0.06" - 0.1"])
- K1 and K2 buckle chutes - 2.0 mm (0.079")
(Adjustable between 1.5 - 2.5 mm [0.06" - 0.1"])
4. After the adjustment is completed, fasten the lock
nut.
If the sheet is folded as shown in the drawing, the
buckle gap may be set too narrow. Make the gap
wider.
As long as the sheet enters the buckle chute,
the smaller the gap is set, the more accurately
the folds will be made.
