  • Page 56: Troubleshooting, Incorrect Braille

    If your text-file is OK, the problem is caused by the Printer. On earlier models of Braillo Printers, this could be caused by either a electrical problem or a mechani- cal problem. But on this model of Printer, there is integrated a self-diagnostic system that is checking the magnets continuously during printing, and this will trigger an alarm if it detects some electri- cal problems with the magnets.
  • Page 57 BRAILLO B 650 SW Which magnet makes what dot? Please take some time to examine the figures below and on the next page. It is very important that you know how the magnets are arranged to be able to understand how this Printer works.

    BRAILLO B 650 SW Magnet rack, cleaning Remove the magnet rack as described in chapter 4.3 “Magnet rack, removal”. Then disassemble the magnet rack as described in chapter 4.4 “Magnet rack disassembly, step by step”. Now damp a cloth with cleaning alcohol to wipe off the surfaces as described in the figure below: Note! Do not ever oil, grease or lubricate any of the moving parts on a magnet rack! This will only attract paper dust.

  • Page 68: Magnet Rack, Adjustment

    BRAILLO B 650 SW Magnet rack, adjustment Before replacing the magnet rack in the Printer, two adjustments must be checked. The first one is the distance between the support list and the pivot arms. This is the travelling distance for the pivot arm. And it should be adjusted to about 0.8 mm using a feeler gauge. Adjust the nuts on both ends of the magnet rack.
  • Page 69 BRAILLO B 650 SW The second adjustment is the pressure the sponge list exerts against the pivot arms. The sponge list works as a return spring for the pivot arms. The correct adjustment is when the sponge list is slightly pressing against the pivot arms, but the pivot arms can still move freely.

  • Page 70: Magnet Rack, Refitting And Adjusting

    BRAILLO B 650 SW Magnet rack, refitting and adjusting Please see figure below: Before putting the magnet rack back on the Printer, make sure that the magnet rack itself is adjusted as described in the previous chapter. When replacing the magnet rack in the Printer: Put in the four fastening screws, but do not tighten them.
  • Page 71 BRAILLO B 650 SW The magnet rack must be adjusted in two directions, horizontal and vertical. The horizontal adjustment is done first. This adjustment positions the magnet rack correctly in relation to the short pivot arms. If the Printer prints too many or too few dots, the horizontal adjustment could be the problem.

  • Page 73 BRAILLO B 650 SW Next is vertical adjustment. Note! The Printer must be in the “printing position” when checking this distance. Vertical adjustment approx. 1 mm (Will be affected by i. e. paper quality). The vertical adjustment of the magnet rack sets the pressure of the printing pins when making dots.
  • Page 74 BRAILLO B 650 SW Adjust upwards by loosening the upper nut and then tighten the lower. Loosen these screws Note! Adjust in small steps, only 1/4 of a revolution at a time. Then test the braille quality.
  • Page 75 BRAILLO B 650 SW Note! When adjusting the magnet racks vertically, observe that magnet rack A and B must be moved upwards to increase the pressure, and magnet rack C and D must be moved downwards to increase the pressure.

    BRAILLO B 650 SW 4.19 Maintenance Weekly (without taking the cover off) Does the Printer print correct Braille? How is the Braille dot quality? Check for any damages on the outside of the cover. Are the operator panel and display functioning and are power lamps illuminated? Do the fans work? Are the fans clean? If there is a lot of dust from the paper on the paper guides, use a vacuum cleaner.
  • Page 88 BRAILLO B 650 SW Lubrication This should be done every 500 running hours, or approximately once a year. Lubricate all items marked “grease” on the figure below. (These are the only locations on the Printer grease may be applied!). The Printer needs to be disassembled to do this lubrication, so it is recom- mend to do this at the same time as the regular 500 hour service.
