Changing From
Factory Set
High-Tension to
Low-Tension
!
Excessive lowering of the gate assembly can
damage material and/or lead to premature
wear of the O-rings or feed belts.
IMPOR TANT
When changing from a low-tension to high-
tension setting, you may have to adjust the
stack height downward to prevent feeding
problems.
NO TE
Certain types of single-sheet material may
require even more tension than the high-
tension setting can provide. To increase
tension even further, place a washer between
the cylinder and spring.

Adjusting Gate Assembly for Low-Tension

Procedure
Certain types of material may demand that you change the gate
assembly from a high-tension setting to a low-tension setting (for
example, irregular shaped material).
To change the spring from a high to a low tension, follow these steps:
1. Remove the gate assembly from gate bracket assembly. To
do so, pull cylinder down with one hand, lift up on knob
with other, and tip at slight angle to remove.
2. Remove the adjustment knob by turning counter-clockwise.
Then lift the cylinder off of top of spring.
3. Turn the cylinder around so that the cylinder collar faces
up. Then place the cylinder on top of the spring.
4. Replace the adjustment knob (make about 8 revolutions of
the knob before reinstalling gate assembly on gate plate).
