1 About the Machine The Reliant 1500 Universal Friction Feeder is designed for use with multi-station inserters to efficiently separate, singulate, and feed a wide variety of cut sheets and non-nested material. After material is loaded into the hopper, the rest is automatic. With photo sensor monitoring, feed cycling is always sychronized with the inserter gripper jaw. Below is a typical setup on the inserter.

Reliant 1500 Manual

One of the design features that makes the Reliant 1500 Universal Friction Feeder unique is a part called the gate assembly. This patented device is the main reason the feeder can separate, singulate, and feed individual sheets with accuracy and reliability — even at high speeds. A single-knob adjustment allows you to easily setup the feeder for many different types of material.

Gate Assembly

The machine is entirely powered by a single AC synchronous motor using either a 120- or 240-VAC electrical power source. Once the machine is prepared for operation, the power-up and operation of the feeder is relatively easy.

This manual contains installation, preparation, and operation information only.

But to get the most out of your machine, you should first become familiar with all of the features, including controls and sensors, connectors, and cables. Please read the “Main Features” subsection that follows to learn about all controls, sensors, and connections. Once you have done this, you should be ready to adjust and successfully run the machine with any material within the specification parameters.

Description

Gate assembly and adjustment

Mounted on a gate bracket assembly directly above the feed belts, this device provides a curvature to help preshingle stacked material. When properly adjusted, a clearance is created to help singulate and feed material.

Top table top

Used to support the back wedge.

Side guides (adjustable)

Holds a stack of material to be fed and helps keep it straight for proper entry through the gate assembly area. Also referred to as “hopper”. (Note: Loading can be performed from either the front or back of inserter.)

Back wedge and adjustment

Lifts the material to keep it off the table top, reduces excessive contact with the feed belts, and helps push the material against the curvature of the gate assembly.

Photo Sensor and flex arm extension

Controls the starting and stopping of a feed cycle by sensing the presence or absence of material. To ensure proper alignment of the sensor, a flex arm extension allows you adjust it for proper distance and angle to the material.

Feed belts

Provides the friction and motion necessary to pull individual material from the bottom of the stack and through the gate assembly area.

Discharge assist assembly

A series of small rollers mounted on movable brackets help to gently hold material down on the feed belts as material exits the gate assembly area. These brackets and rollers are part of the gate assembly and are removed when the gate assembly is removed.

On/Off switch (not pictured)

Located on the rear of the feeder, this toggle switch turns AC power On or Off to the feeder.

Hold-down spring assemblies

As a piece of material exits the feeder gate assembly area, these two hold-down spring assemblies help keep it aligned and in proper position for the gripper jaw. Shipped loose and mounted on inserter.

Insert plate guide

This plate is supplied with your feeder and is to be mounted on the back deck plate. Shipped loose and mounted on inserter (if required).

Controls and Sensors

Read the descriptions below to become familiar with the controls and sensors. ON/OFF SWITCH. This rocker switch determines whether AC power to the feeder is “On” or “Off”. Push the horizontal line (—) to turn “On” and push the circle (O) to turn “Off”. It is located at the rear of the feeder. PHOTO SENSOR. Sends signals to the relay circuit to both “start” and “stop” the feed cycle. Also called a sheet sensor, it “looks” for the leading edge of the bottom sheet of material to stop the machine. When the gripper jaw removes the bottom sheet of material, the feeder starts and then feeds the next sheet. The machine stops as the sensor “sees” the leading edge. The sensor uses two LED indicators. A green LED functions as the power indicator and is constantly lit during normal operation. The second LED is amber, and indicates the presence of product staged under the sensor. Amber LED on indicates the sensor "sees" product; off when no product is present.

Connectors and Cables

Read the following descriptions to become familiar with the connectors and cables. Refer back to Figure 4 for location. AC POWER INLET/FUSE. This 3-prong connector receives incoming AC power from the designated power source. One end of AC power cord plugs into power inlet (rear of machine), while the other plugs into a three-prong grounded and fused outlet.

2 Installing the Machine When performing initial installation, always make sure you turn Off the main power switch and disconnect all equipment from the electrical power source. Failure to do so can expose you to a potential start-up, and therefore moving parts which can cause serious injury. Do not attempt feeder installation while the inserter is running. Failure to do so can expose you to moving parts which can cause serious injury. Avoid turning on the feeder or making initial adjustments until all parts are secured. Failure to do so can cause damage to equipment.

Installation of the Reliant 1500 Universal Friction Feeder onto the back deck plate of an inserter is a relatively simple procedure, with only minor modifications to the selected insert station prior to attaching the feeder. The entire installation can typically be done with a hexhead driver set and a slotted screwdriver. To install the feeder, perform the following steps: 1: Removing rear guide assembly 2: Removing T-plate 3: Repositioning separator foot 4: Removing suction cup and closing off vacuum hose 5: Repositioning insert guide tabs

Optional step: Install insert plate guide

6: Installing feeder hold-down spring assemblies 7: Aligning feeder with insert station 8: Securing feeder to inserter 9: Initial feeder photo sensor positioning

STEP 1: Removing Rear Guide Assembly

At the selected insert station, remove the fasteners that hold the inserter rear guide assembly to the inserter back deck plate. Lift rear guide assembly off of back deck plate.

STEP 2: Removing T-Plate

With the rear guide assembly removed, you can now access the inserter T-plate. Simply lift off of back deck plate.

Removing T-Plate from Inserter

STEP 3: Repositioning Separator Foot

• Locate the separator foot at the front side of the inserter station (attached to top rotating shaft). • With a screwdriver, loosen the inserter separator foot and tilt away slightly from insert station assembly (opposite feeder) so the foot does not interfere with material being fed. • Retighten to secure.

STEP 4: Removing Suction Cup and Closing Off Vacuum Hose

• Locate the suction cup and hose from front side of insert station. • Remove suction cup from vacuum assembly. • Lower and tilt the adjustable vacuum assembly forward (by turning the built-in thumbscrew). The vacuum assembly may be moved down and to one side if it interferes with the material being fed. • Close off the vacuum hose opening; any convenient plugging method will do.

STEP 5: Repositioning Insert Guide Tabs

• Cycle the inserter until the gripper arm jaw is approximately 1/2 in. (12.7 mm) from the hopper plate (leading edge of material exiting feeder stops here). • Locate the two insert guide tabs that protrude from under the back deck plate. Bend these tabs as required (either up or down) until their top surface is slightly above the bottom of the gripper arm jaw. The material to be run will rest on these tabs. The bottom of the gripper arm jaw must pass under the material without making contact with it. • As it is important that there be adequate clearance between the guide tabs surface and the gripper jaw, use a flat, thin rule (or gauge) to test for clearance. Ideally, with the gripper jaw should be fully open when testing. • Center the gauge on the guide tabs and slide the gauge back and forth on the tabs, making sure the gripper jaw does not touch the bottom of the gauge.

Inserco inserters only: Remove the two insert guide tabs that protrude from the back deck plate. Make a bend in each tab approximately 1-3/8 in. (34.9 mm) from the tip by placing the tab approximately 1-3/8 in. (34.9 mm) into the rear guide assembly. Bend the tab slightly and repeat same for second tab. Reinstall insert guide tabs to back deck plate.

Reliant 1500 Manual

Optional Step: Installing Insert Plate Guide

When feeding materials less than 5 in. (12.7 cm) wide, you must install the provided insert plate guide with your machine. Install it from the underside of the back deck plate using the two provided hex-head screws; reuse the two slots previously used for mounting the rear guide assembly. • Start the screws from the top side of the back deck plate, leaving them loose so you can move insert plate guide during placement. • Position the insert plate guide so the top surface is slightly above the bottom of the gripper arm jaw. • Tighten to secure. • As it is important that there be adequate clearance between the guide tabs surface and the gripper jaw, use a flat, thin rule (or gauge) to test for clearance. Ideally, the gripper jaw should be fully open when testing. • Center the gauge on the guide tabs and slide the gauge back and forth on the tabs, making sure the gripper jaw does not touch the bottom of the gauge.

STEP 6: Installing Feeder Hold-Down Spring Assemblies

• Using the two provided hold-down spring assemblies (with support bars), place each on the insert station rail (feeder side of inserter). • Position each spring support bar so that they are equally spaced from each edge of the material to be run. • Tighten the built-in wing nut on each to secure. • Check for placement and pressure of the hold-down spring assemblies by sliding a piece of material to be run under the springs. There should be a “slight drag” when moving the material back and forth. • Make adjustments as required and recheck.

Certain inserter models require hold-down spring assemblies to mount from the bottom side of the cross-bar (see figure below). To invert, simply remove screw and invert L-bracket and spring.

Installing Hold-Down Spring Assemblies and Testing for Drag Use this configuration for Bell & Howell Mailstars, and 825 models.

Knowing how far from each edge of the material to place the hold-down spring assemblies is a combination of intuition and testing.

With material inserted between the springs and the insert guide tabs, test the spring tension by sliding the material back and forth. Tension should not be so great that it distorts the material as it moves. If adjustment is required, loosen the hex-head screw for each spring and move up or down on support bar. Retighten when optimum tension is achieved.

STEP 7: Aligning and Securing Feeder to Insert Station

• Using your finger, turn the drive belt to advance a piece of your material through the gate assembly area and under the feeder hold down springs. • Continue advancing the material until the trailing edge of material fits between the feeder exit rollers (.25 in. to .5 in., or 6.4 mm to 12.7 mm of material). • Carefully position the feeder into the inserter station and center the leading edge of your material under the inserter hold-down springs. Ensure the front edge of the material is in-line with the front hopper plate. • Once you are satisfied with the feeder alignment, press down on the feeder top plate to secure the feeder suction cups to the inserter rear deck plate.

STEP 8: Initial Feeder Photo Sensor Positioning

The final photo sensor adjustment will align slightly to the rear of the leading edge. This is because when the photo sensor signals the feeder to stop, the motor will over-travel slightly.

• With the machine turned Off, position the photo sensor by sighting along the tubular barrel. It should point exactly at the leading edge of material being held by the hold-down springs. • Use the retractable extension to maneuver the photo sensor into position for desired height and angle. • During the final adjustment of the photo sensor, you need to actually load material into hopper, turn the feeder Off, and cycle the inserter.

A perpendicular alignment to the material is preferred. However, in many instances you may be limited to an angular alignment due to the constraints of the retractable extension and cross-bar design.

3 Preparing for Operation When performing initial feeder adjustments prior to operation, always make sure you turn Off the main power switch and disconnect the inserter from the electrical power source. Failure to do so can expose you to a potential start-up, and therefore moving parts which can cause serious injury. In steps 1–3, do the same for the feeder. Do not attempt to make any adjustments while the feeder(s) and inserter are running. Failure to do so can expose you to moving parts which can cause serious injury. Do not wear loose clothing when operating the feeder.

Once the Feeder is installed on the inserter, you are then ready to prepare the machine for operation. To do so, you must perform several adjustments with the material you are going to be feeding. And, you must do a test run with this material to verify that it is set correctly before you begin cycling the inserter. You will have to perform this procedure for material that you plan to feed. The adjustments you must make (in order) are as follows: 1: Gate assembly adjustment 2: Side guides setting 3: Back wedge setting 4: Photo sensor setting

Avoid making adjustments with loose or unsecured parts. This can potentially damage parts.

STEP 1: Gate Assembly Adjustment Hopper refers to the space where the material is stacked (made up of the side guides).

Keep in mind that the gate assembly works with the wedge to provide the proper lift, curvature of the material, and proper belt/material contact to separate and feed one piece at a time.

Review

The gate assembly provides the curvature to help preshingle material and provides the proper gap to help the feed belts pull material through the gate assembly area — one at a time. The downward pressure (or weight) of the stack in the hopper will provide the force to help push the material against the curvature of the gate assembly, and help it contact the feed belts. This preshingling will allow the gate assembly to separate (and singulate) material as it moves toward the gap. To achieve the optimum separation, you have to use the adjustment knob to either increase (clockwise) or decrease (counter-clockwise) the gap between gate assembly and the feed belts. Depending on the characteristics of the material you are using, you may have to change the gate assembly from the factory-set high spring tension to a low spring tension. See “Changing from Factory Set High-Tension to Low-Tension”.

Objective Feeding problems will occur with either too much pressure on the material, or too large a gap between the gate assembly and the material.

Relaint 1500 Manual

Adjust the gate assembly for minimum gap, with minimum pressure on the material. Your objective is to adjust the clearance so that a single piece of material passes without resistance. The optimum setting should be a gap adjustment of 1.5 thickness of material.

14

STEP 1: Gate Assembly Adjustment (continued)

Procedure

To adjust the gate assembly for proper gap,: 1. Slide one piece of material under the gate assembly. It may be necessary to pull up on the adjustment knob to allow the piece to be inserted.

Excessive lowering of the gate assembly can damage material or lead to premature wear of the O-rings or feed belts.

If bottom piece of material does not move freely, then the gate assembly is too tight. This can lead to premature wear of the O-rings or feed belts.

Lifting Gate Assembly Upward to Insert Material

A wider gap between material and belt provides the highest tolerance for curled and bent edges.

2. Test the piece for clearance. Grasp the envelope with two hands and slide it front-to-back under the gate assembly. A proper adjustment allows a slight amount of drag on the top of the envelope. 3. Adjust the knob on the gate assembly until the piece has the desired drag. Turn the knob clockwise to increase clearance or counterclockwise to decrease clearance. 4. Repeat the drag tests and adjust as needed to achieve acceptable clearance.

Adjusting Gate Assembly for Correct Gap

Reliant 1500 Manual

STEP 1: Gate Assembly Adjustment (continued) When feeding product with varying thickness throughout, it may be necessary to turn both adjustment rollers 1-2 full turns counterclockwise to compensate for the differential thickness. This procedure allows the gate horizon to “float.”

To adjust the gate for effective material skew control, follow these steps: 1. Repeat material drag test. 2. Test the piece for uneven side-to-side drag. Grasp with two hands and slide it front-to-back under the gate assembly. A proper adjustment allows for equal drag on the left and right sides of the piece of material. 3. To compensate for greater drag on one side of the material, turn the opposite adjustment roller counterclockwise 1/8 turn. Next, turn the other adjustment roller clockwise 1/8 turn. 4. Repeat drag tests and adjust as needed until equal drag is achieved. You may need to repeat this procedure after observing the feeder cycling (refer to “How to Operate”).

The adjustment knob set screws are pre-set at the factory to lock the knob to the threaded rod. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN! Over-tightening the set screws may damage the components.

Changing From Factory Set High-Tension to Low-Tension

The Reliant 1500 is shipped with a high-tension spring in the gate assembly. This works well for most materials, allows for tall stack height, and helps provide the best performance in preventing doubles. However, 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).

Excessive lowering of the gate assembly can damage material lead and/or lead to premature wear of the O-rings or feed belts.

If you are feeding a material of irregular thickness, you should change to low-tension. This provides the following benefits: 1) allows the gate assembly to adjust to the irregular thicknesses. 2) prevents marking on the material by the gate assembly. 3) prevents peeling back the top sheet of a multi-page item.

Procedure

To change the spring from a high to a low spring tension, follow these steps: 1. Move the feeder back from the gate plate to allow working clearance. To do so, loosen the two T-handle screws from underside of feeder. You can save much realignment time if you mark the current position on the back deck plate before moving.

When changing from a low-tension to hightension setting, you may have to adjust the stack height downward to prevent feeding problems.

2. 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.

Certain types of single-sheet material may require even more tension than the cylinder reversible can provide. To increase tension even further, place a high-tension washer between the cylinder and spring.

3. Remove the adjustment knob by turning counter-clockwise (Figure A). Then lift the cylinder off of top of spring (Figure B). 4. Turn the cylinder around so that the cylinder collar faces up (Figure C). Then place the cylinder on top of the spring. 5. Replace the adjustment knob (make about 8 revolutions of the knob before reinstalling gate assembly on gate plate). 6. Return feeder to original position marked on back deck plate and tighten T-handle screws.

STEP 2: Side Guides Setting Review

The side guides hold the stack of material being fed, and guide the material through the feeder in a straight line of movement without horizontal drift. The side guides can be adjusted to accommodate different sizes of material.

Objective

Adjust the side guides so that the material stack maintains uniformity from top to bottom, with no drifting or binding. Adjustments are made horizontally only. For adjustment, make sure the space between the side guides can accommodate the size of the material being fed. Consider the following as you adjust the guides horizontally: • Initial starting point should always be that each guide is of equal distance from the center point of the machine. • Each edge of the material should rest equally on feed belts at either side of gate assembly. However, there can be certain instances where guides do not need to be centered due to material characteristics. • Adjust both side guides to be as close as possible to either sides of the material, without causing binding, curling of edges, or resistance to movement.

Procedure

Adjust each side guide for proper horizontal spacing: 1. With a small stack of material in the hopper and centered in front of the gate, start by loosening each side guide wing adjuster (counter-clockwise). This will allow you to move each side guide as needed. 2. Grasp the lower part of each guide and slide to the recommended distance from the material: 1/16 in. (1.6 mm) from each edge, 1/8 in. (3.1 mm) overall. Tighten each wing adjuster after you establish proper position for each guide. 3. Check final clearance by moving the stack of material up and down between the side guides. A good “rule-of-thumb” measurement to use is about 1/16 in. (1.6 mm) between material edge and side guide (1/8 in. or 3.1 mm overall).

To help ensure the stack has even edges from top to bottom, “jog” each handful of material on a flat surface before placing in hopper.

Try to establish a “sweet spot” in stack height whereby you can stack the maximum amount of material without compromising performance. A stack too high may cause double feeds; a stack too low may cause slipping.

STEP 3: Back Wedge Setting

Keep in mind that the back wedge works with the gate assembly to provide the proper lift, curvature of the material, and proper belt/material contact to separate and feed one sheet at a time.

There are a number of feeding problems which can be solved by simply adjusting the back wedge to different positions. Some of these problems include double feeds, skewing, twisting, poor singulation, ink or varnish buildup on the belts, and jamming at the gate assembly area.

Review

The back wedge provides proper lift to the material to help keep it off the table top and feed belts, and it creates the force necessary to push material against the gate assembly. By adjusting it back and forth from the gate assembly or pivoting side to side, you can create the lift and force necessary to preshingle material against the curvature of the gate assembly. Also, it keeps other sheets off the feed belts until proper separation of the bottom sheet at the gate assembly has occurred. Here are some general guidelines that should help you determine how the back wedge should be positioned for your particular material: • Moving the individual triangle wedges to the outside of the back wedge shaft (Figure A) will create a bow in the center. The bow will stiffen the material to promote better singulation of thinner material. • Pivoting the back wedge from its perpendicular to the gate assembly (Figure B) will increase or decrease the amount of drag or contact (or traction) on the feed belts for a given side. This can also be used to control twisting or skewing of material as it leaves the gate assembly area. • If the back wedge is positioned too far backward from the gate assembly (Figure C), then the belts are driving the material before the bottom sheet has separated and left the gate assembly area. This pushes the gate assembly up, creating more pressure on the material, O-rings, and feed belts. The result can be premature buildup of ink or varnish on the belt surfaces. It can also cause more than one piece of material at a time to be forced under the gate assembly, thus creating a double feed. By moving the back wedge forward, only the bottom material can make contact with the belt surface. Slippage is reduced, minimizing buildup on the belt surface. Double feeding is also reduced.

For more information about optional wedges and their use with various materials, see "Additional Wedges".

• If the back wedge is positioned too far forward to the gate assembly (Figure D), then a pinch point can be created between the top corner of the individual wedges and the material. Moving the back wedge even closer towards the gate assembly can allow material to overhang the corner of the wedge, creating too much lift of the material off the feed belts.

STEP 3: Back Wedge Setting (continued)

Objective

Adjust the back wedge for proper support of the material off the table top, without creating any pinch or stress points.

Procedure

To adjust the back wedge for initial proper positioning, follow these steps: 1. Grasp a handful of material, approximately 2 to 2-1/2 in. (5 to 6 cm) thick, and preshingle the edges with your thumb.

Preshingling a Small Stack of Material By Hand

2. Place the preshingled material in the hopper so that the edges rest against the curvature of the gate assembly. 3. Turn the back wedge knob counter-clockwise to loosen the wedge.

Moving the back wedge too far forward to the gate assembly can create a pinch point between the tip of the triangle wedges and the material. If moving the back wedge in is not effective, then an optional wedge may be required. See Appendix A for more information.

STEP 3: Back Wedge Setting (continued)

4. Move the back wedge forwards and backwards until the bottom sheet is not touching the table top. A good starting point is to measure about 5/8 in. (16 mm) from the bottom sheet to front edge of table top. Then as you test, you can “fine tune” from this point.

Adjusting Back Wedge for Proper Lift

5. Make sure the edge of the back wedge assembly is parallel with the edge of the material stack (Figure 24). Adjust as required and then tighten knob.

STEP 4: Final Photo Sensor Adjustment

Review

Standard photo sensor shipped from the factory is a diffuse reflective detector. No adjustment for gain is required or necessary.

Objective

The photo sensor is mounted on the flex arm extension to detect the leading edge of a piece of material to be staged. When the gripper jaw pulls the material from the feeder, the photo sensor no longer “sees” the material and sends a signal to start the feeder. The feeder then moves another piece of material into place, and then stops.

For the photo sensor to be effective, it must be adjusted so that each time the feeder starts, the leading edge of the material being fed stops in line with the front hopper plate. The feeder should stop so that the trailing edge of the material has minimal overlap with the next trailing edge exiting the gate assembly area.

Procedure

Only adjust the photo sensor when the feeder power is Off. Do not attempt to adjust the photo sensor while the feeder power is On or while the feeder is running. Doing so will expose you to pinch points which can cause injury to hands or fingers.

Potential damage to feeder parts is avoided if adjustments are made when the feeder power is Off.

To adjust the photo sensor for proper positioning, follow these steps: 1. Prepare your adjustment by loading the hopper with approximately 2 to 2-1/2 in. (5 to 6 cm) of material. Make sure you preshingle the stack so that material rests against the curvature of the gate assembly. 2. Use your finger or thumb on the drive belt or one of the feed rollers to manually move the bottom sheet of material through the gate assembly area and under hold-down springs. Continue until material leading edge is in-line with front hopper plate, then stop. 3. Turn the feeder power On by pushing the horizontal line (—) at the Power On/Off rocker switch.

Observe the overlap between the trailing edge of the bottom sheet and leading edge of the next sheet. It should be approximately 1/4 in. (6.4 mm) to 1/2 in. (12.7 mm). If not refer back to Step 7, “Align Feeder with Insert Station” for more information.

Once a piece is removed from the gripper jaw, the sensor sends a signal to the feeder to “stage” the next piece. The leading of the “staged” piece should be inline with the front hopper plate. 5. After running several sheets through, turn the feeder power Off by pushing the circle (O) at the Power On/Off rocker switch. Adjust the photo sensor as needed to achieve the correct stopping point. An optimum setting is to aim the barrel slightly to the rear of the leading edge. This compensates for the slight over-travel of the motor after it turns Off, thus allowing the leading edge to stop in-line with the front hopper plate. 6. Retest the feeder as needed until optimum results are achieved.

If the photo sensor is to set too far from the surface of the material, the read indicator on the back of the photo sensor will simply turn On and the feeder will start. This indicates the sensor is out of range and therefore will be not “see” the target.

On the feeder, such objects as shafts, guides, belts, and supports may cause false “reads” if the photo sensor is not adjusted properly for the material (or target). The resulting problem can be intermittent or continuous feeding. See Section 5, “Troubleshooting”, for a solution.

Black opaque objects may require a special photo sensor. If the photo sensor fails to stop the feeder when the material is within the target range, then consult a qualified technician.

STEP 5: Inserter Adjustments and Final Check

Now that you have made all the necessary adjustments for operating the feeder, it is recommended that you next make any adjustments on the inserter so that the inserter and feeder work together effectively. This includes adjusting the gripper jaw and double-detect. For details, please refer to your inserter owner’s manual. Prepare your test by loading the hopper with approximately 2 to 2-1/2 in. (5 to 6 cm) of material. Make sure you preshingle the stack so that material rests against the curvature of the gate assembly. 1. Power-up the feeder by pushing the horizontal line (—) at the Power On/Off switch.

If the gate assembly is too tight, the feeder will have difficulty pulling the material through the gate assembly area. This will cause “missed” feeds.

2. Observe how individual material enters and exits the gate assembly area. Remember, a properly set gap will allow each new sheet to enter at about the center line of the cylinder while the bottom sheet is exiting the gate assembly area. Ideal overlap is 1/4 to 1/2 in. (6.4 to 12.7 mm). 3. If feeding doubles, then move the wedge in towards the gate assembly. Test again. 4. If sheets are overlapping excessively or, if the machine is feeding doubles, then reduce the gap slightly by moving the knob about 1/8 turn counter-clockwise. Test again.

Moving the back wedge too far forward to the gate assembly can create a pinch point between the tip of the triangle wedges and the material. If moving the back wedge in is not effective, then an optional wedge may be required.

5. As individual sheets of material move through the hold-down springs, check for any skewing or jamming. Also check for damage to the material. 6. If this or other feeding problems still persist (slipping, skewing, jamming), then review all the adjustment procedures in Section 3, “Preparing for Operation”.

For certain types of materials, you may have to position the material “off-center” to prevent any skewing affect.

4 How to Operate Sequence of Operation STEP 1: Loading Material in the Hopper

Follow these steps for successful power-up and operation.

• Start by preshingling by hand a small stack of material so that it conforms to the curvature of the gate assembly.

Preshingling prevents multiple sheets from jamming under the gate assembly at start-up.

If you wish, loading of material can be accomplished from the front side of the inserter.

Preshingling of First Stack

• Push in gently to make sure lead edges touch the gate bracket assembly and front edges of the hopper guides (Figure A). • At the back wedge, notice how it helps lift the trailing edges of the material off the table top and feed belts. Also notice how the lifting helps to push the preshingled edges against the curvature of the gate assembly (Figure B).

A. Leading Edges Against Gate Bracket Assembly and Side Guides

25

B. Trailing Edges Lifted by Back Wedge

Reliant 1500 Manual

STEP 2: Determining Stack Height

• Gradually add more material to the hopper after the initial stack is formed around the gate assembly. As stack height will have a preferred minimum and a maximum, you will have to experiment to determine the effective range of height. • Make sure the material is loaded in the hopper as straight as possible. Before adding to hopper, “jog” each hand-full of material on a flat surface to make sure lead edges are as even as possible. As you add each handful, gently push in each stack so that lead edges rest firmly against front of side guides.

Stack height affects the downward pressure on the feed belts. Greater downward pressure can increase the chances for double feeds or motor stallouts.

Adding More Material to Hopper

STEP 3: Powering On Feeder

• Turn the feeder power On by pushing the horizontal line (—) at the Power On/Off rocker switch. • With power On, the feeder motor should immediately move the bottom sheet of material from the stack and through the gate assembly area to “stage” the first piece. As the photo sensor “sees” the leading edge, the feeder motor should turn Off. • Check the leading edge of bottom sheet. It should be in-line with the front hopper plate and ready for cycling.

Relaint 1500 Manual

26

STEP 4: Cycling the Inserter

• Jog the inserter to see if hold-down spring pressure is equal. Any unequal spring pressure will skew material in the jaw. • With the feeder already fully loaded and powered On, run the inserter through several cycles. Insert Station

It might be helpful to know that a properly set gap will allow the leading edge of sheet to enter at about the center line of the cylinder (refer back to Figure 28), as the previous or bottom sheet is exiting the gate assembly area.

Cycling Inserter

STEP 5: Final Check

Make sure: • Material alignment is consistent with the grip position. • Leading edge of bottom sheet stops at proper location. • Proper separation is occurring at gate assembly area.

If a jam occurs during operation, follow these steps: 1. Turn the feeder power Off by pushing the circle (O) at the Power On/Off rocker switch.

• Effective preshingling is occurring at curvature of gate assembly. • Material is not being damaged during cycling. • Feeder is secured to inserter and will not move during operation.

2. Remove jammed material from feeder. While doing so, try to determine the cause of the jam (see Section 5, “Troubleshooting”). 3. Verify whether any adjustments are loose. If so, refer back to Section 3, “Preparing for Operation”, for proper adjustment procedures. 4. Reposition photo sensor (as required).

Shutdown

Should you not be using the feeder for long periods of time, follow these steps to ensure a safe and secure storage: 1. Turn the feeder power Off by pushing the circle (O) at the rocker Power On/Off rocker switch. 2. Disconnect the feeder power cord from the AC power source. 3. Cover the feeder with a cloth or plastic tarp to prevent dust and debris from accumulating.

Preventive Care

Cleaning Feed Belts To clean feed belts: 1. Turn Off feeder and remove power cord from outlet. 2. Apply a small amount of isopropyl alcohol to a soft cloth.

Use only isopropyl alcohol (98% concentration). Other solvents can cause belts to wear prematurely, and even cause total breakdown of material. Cleaning schedule for various materials: • Typical: every month • Dusty: after every shift • High ink or varnish: 1 time per shift

3. Use your thumb or finger on the drive belt or one of the feed rollers to manually move feed belts. Start with one belt at a time (there are five total). 4. Carefully press the moistened area of the cloth to the belt. As you move the belt, use moderate pressure to wipe across the belt, making sure to wipe in direction of grooves. After several rotations of the belt, repeat for each belt. 5. Taking a dry portion of the cloth, go back to the first feed belt cleaned and use moderate pressure against the belt for several revolutions to ensure the belt is dried. Repeat for each belt. 6. Restore power.
