The air adjustment table is a guide to set numerical values. The setting range of each setting is the following numerical value ±5. Depending on paper, the numerical values in ( ) in the table will be the appropriate setting range. Set each air volume to a smaller value than that of the table, when handling thin and flimsy paper such as rough paper and recycled paper. The larger the air volume, the more folding misalignment may occur. Change the numerical value when double-feed or mis-feed occurs even though the values are set according to the air adjustment table.

Adjusting Spring Pressure

When feeding thick paper or slippery paper, the paper may stop at the conveyance roller without reaching to the folding roller. In this case, increase the spring pressure for the conveyance roller. On the other hand, when feeding thin paper or flimsy paper, the paper may get wrinkled lengthways. In this case, decrease the spring pressure for the conveyance roller.

• When adjusting the spring pressure, turn off the machine .
• When adjusting the spring pressure, be careful not to harm your hand.

There are two springs on the operator's side and the non-operator's side. The standard position is as shown in the figure.

The position of the spring must be the same '

• on the operator's side and non-operator's side. Otherwise, folding misalignment may occur.

Adjust the spring pressure in the following procedures.

Adjust the spring pressure by changing the position of the spring located inside. The closer the hooked position is to the paper feed section [a], the higher the pressure is. The closer the hooked position [bl to the ejecting section, the lower the pressure is.

To further increase the srping pressure, hook the spring closer to the paper feed section.

• If the spring pressure is too high, paper may get wrinkled.
• If the spring pressure is too low, paper may not be conveyed.

After paper feed is finished or before feeding other paper, return each spring to the standard position.
