Return Ribbon Tension Adjustment
Tension of the return ribbons must be adjusted on both
sides of the finisher. To adjust the tension of the return
ribbons, follow these steps and refer to Figure 23.
1. Remove both side panels from the finisher.
2. Locate the return ribbon tension systems on each
side of the finisher.
3. On one side of the finisher, unhook the tension
spring from the tension pin.
4. Slide the tension pin out of the holes on the
tension bracket.
5. Move the tension pin to another set of holes
higher or lower on the tension bracket to adjust
the tension of the return ribbons.
NOTE: The return ribbons should have enough
tension to travel along the cylinder without slipping
(including while carrying linen) but not so tight as
to become stretched out.
6. Hook the tension spring back onto the tension
pin.
7. Make an equal adjustment to the return ribbon
tension system on the other side of the finisher.
NOTE: Count the number of holes on each tension
bracket to verify that the tension of the return
ribbons is equal on both sides of the finisher.
8. Replace both side panels on the finisher.
IMPORTANT: Do not over-tighten the return
ribbons as this will cause rapid deterioration.
