Hi, My name is John, and I work as a Laundry Technician. One of our Ironer feeder has an issue where the left-side feeder clamp is not coming all the way down. when we place bed sheet in the feeder clamp, it goes up, comes down, but then stops at the sensor. we have to push the read switch and then the green switch for it to come down. We tried flipping the inverter on station one and two, but the issue persists. We also replaced the linear bearing, sensor, and cable, but it still isn't working. Can you explain the possible cause of this Issue ? Thanks John

The possible causes for the left-side feeder clamp issue on a Chicago Dryer King Edge ironer feeder, where it does not come all the way down without manual intervention, could include:

1. Upper Spreader Clamp Linear Bearing Issue – The bearing may be worn or damaged, preventing smooth movement.
2. Lower Spreader Drive Belt Tension – If the belt tension is incorrect, it may not provide enough force for proper operation.
3. Lower Spreader Drive Belt Issue – A worn or damaged belt might not function correctly.
4. Lower Spreader Belt Tension Spring – A weak or broken tension spring could affect the movement.
5. Lower Spreader Belt Gap Adjustment – An improper gap setting might cause misalignment or resistance.

These components should be inspected, adjusted, or replaced as necessary to restore proper function.

Page 9: Chapter 1 Introduction
The King Edge automatic cornerless spreader/feeder allows operators to feed sheets or other large pieces of ﬂatwork into a ﬂatwork ironer or automatic folder from two stations. A built-in bypass conveyor allows feeding of small pieces through the King Edge without altering the position of the feeder or its discharge conveyor.
