JOGGLER
OPERATING
LEVER
When the card level drops below the sensing pads,
the additional travel of the joggler forces the joggIer
operating lever to follow the low dwell of the front
joggler cam. At this time, the tab on the joggler op-
erating lever will cause the clutch operating lever to
rotate counterclockwise, pivoting the clutch latch out
of the step in the clutch sleeve. The helical spring
grips the shaft, and the feed rolls are driven. Cards
feed until card level in the hopper again reaches the
sensing pads and then the clutchlatches.
Cards are automatically front-and-side-joggled
in the hopper. Correct operating jogglers produce a
deck with almost perfectly straight sides. The front
joggler· can be opened for insertion or removal of
either cards or card weight.
The card weight is designed to pass through the
lower magazine into the hopper and must be used
to
feed the last cards.
The front joggler interlock, mounted under the
read hopper, renders the machine inoperative unless
the front joggler is closed.
Clutch Adjustments
With the clutch latch against the latch step on the
sleeve, loosen the split collar and rotate the collar
