Section 2: Overview 2-17
De-tangling Bar and Switch
If the string of two or more pins become tangled as the pins are being raised, additional string pressure
is put on the tension lever assemblies causing them to lift the de-tangling bar. This action rotates the
cam located on the end of the bar to disengage it from the de-tangle switch. The machine enters a de-
tangle sequence in an attempt to remedy the problem by using the drive motor to create an up and down
motion of the pins. Refer to Fig ure 2-17.
