4 Maintenance 4.2.3.3 Plastic Position Handwheel Step: 1. Turn plastic feed ON. Run two sheets of paper through machine. Step: 2. Use the machine speed controller to index both sheets of paper together to ensure plastic is lined up property. If they do not line up, run two more sheets of paper, repeat until proper alignment is achieved.

Tab 4.2.3.5 Tab Position Calibration Tab position calibration sets two dimensions at the same time: the tab size and the center line of tabcut on the paper. Measure tab at point along side where small straight side meets curve near top of tab. This is approximately 1/3 the distance down from edge of paper.
Pile Feeder The paper feeder used on the Scotty 5000 is specially designed to feed index stocks at high speeds. It is very important for the operator to keep the feeder in good working condition and to learn how to adjust and correct for various operating conditions.
Page 116
4 Maintenance 4.2.4.1 Vacuum System for Feeding Paper The machine is equipped with a vacuum pump which provides both vacuum for pick--up and blow air for separating the sheets. The degree of vacuum can be adjusted by adjusting the nut on the vacuum relief valve located on the vacuum gage.

Page 118
4 Maintenance 4.2.4.5 Plastic Feed and Fold Mechanism The incoming plastic is folded by passing between two roller assemblies just before it reaches the drive rollers. The space between these rollers determines the sharpness of the fold or crease. The degree of fold or crease is very important since it determines the ability of the cut piece to open and be picked up by the sheet.

Step: 6. If the knives do not cut the Mylar, go through the procedure again. If they still do not cut send the knives to Scott for sharpening. NEVER JAM THE LOWER KNIFE AGAINST THE UPPER TO MAKE THEM CUT.
Page 122
DO NOT PUT OIL ON THE KNIVES TO ELIMINATE THE NOISE. YOU MUST RESET THE KNIVES. If you cannot get the proper setting by doing the above procedure, send your knives to Scott for sharpening. DO NOT JAM THE KNIVES INTO EACH OTHER TO MAKE THEM CUT.
