Inspect For Damage; Prepare The Docking Brackets - GBC eWire Service Manual

8.4. Inspect for Damage

1. Inspect the entire machine for damage. Make sure any damage
that could affect the operation of the eWire is repaired.
2. Double check that all packaging (foam, zip ties, lock collars) has
been removed from the eWire. Running the eWire with packaging
material still in place could cause damage.
Installation Instructions

8.5. Prepare the Docking Brackets

Do the following to install the Docking Bracket Assemblies that were
shipped inside the eWire.
1. Do REP 1.6 to remove the Side Cover on the upstream and
downstream sides of the eWire.
2. Locate the slots on the eWire Frame on the upstream side.
3. Slide the Upstream Docking Bracket under the eWire and insert
the threaded studs through the slots. Secure the docking bracket
using M6 Nuts, but do not fully tighten yet.
4. Move the eWire forward until the Docking Bracket assembly
engages with the upstream device (such as AdvancedPunchPro).
Reach underneath the frame to lock the Docking Bracket in place
using the hook.
5. Check the gap between eWire and the Upstream Device. If the
gap is too large or too small, the Docking Bracket can be shifted
using the slots so that the eWire mating face is closer, or further
away from the upstream device. Secure the Nuts to lock in the
new position.
6. After the Gap adjustment has been made, dock the eWire to the
upstream device again and confirm the spacing is correct. You
may want to mark the position on the eWire frame so you can
return to it later if needed.
7. Check the horizontal alignment. This can be checked by using a
reference point for paper center on both the eWire and the
upstream device. If horizontal alignment looks good, no further
action is needed.
8. If there is an issue with horizontal alignment, measure the amount
eWire must be shifted to correct the offset. Undock the eWire and
remove the Docking Bracket from the eWire.
