The adjustment of the rear guide affects the friction
between the inserts and the feed belt. Adjustment
therefore depends on paper weight, structure and
printing method as well as what type of inserts are
being fed. Proper adjustment is more significant when
running single sheets. Loosen the knob and slide the
rear guide to adjust. Tighten after adjustment. Start
with the rear guide to the left and work to the right
until proper feed is obtained.
Adjusting the rear guide too much to the left may
cause inserts not to be fed due to lack of friction. The
error message "Belt overload" will be shown in the
display. Move the rear guide to the right to increase
the friction.
Adjusting the rear guide too much to the right may
cause the next insert to follow directly after the first
one. The error message "Paper jam" will be shown in
the display. Move the rear guide to the left to decrease
the friction.
Proper adjustment of the rear guide demands that the
separation is properly adjusted. Detach the rear guide
pusher when running booklets. When running sigle
sheets, move the rear guide to the left so the trail
edge of the sheets are up on the slop of the pusher.
This increases the feed of the sheets.
The insert front guide should be positioned in its
rightmost position when booklets over 3mm thick are
fed. For single sheets and booklets up to 3mm thick,
position the front guide in its leftmost position. Lift the
front guide to adjust.
Add addition weight for sheets or inserts which are
difficult to feed, or when the stack of paper is low.
