Feeding Large Pieces
NOTE: The unit is designed to
process large pieces of flatwork
ranging in size from 48” (1220
mm) to 120” (3050 mm). It is NOT
designed to feed folded flatwork.
If necessary, make sure the large piece
conveyor safety bracket has been released
and press the DISCHARGE CONVEYOR
UP/DOWN switch to the DOWN position
(Figure 3-8, A).
On the CHI Panel, press a STATION but
-
ton to select a program.
Remove a sheet from the laundry basket.
Place the approximate center of the long
side of the flatwork between the inlet con
-
veyor belts (Figure 3-11). It is important
that there are no folds in the flatwork.
Turn to the next piece. Everything after
this is done automatically.
The ribbons carry the flatwork to the
top-center of the unit where the piece
is spread full width.
At the same time, the spreader belts
at the center of the unit smooth the
flatwork. This makes sure the whole
piece is evenly spread before feeding.
The spreader clamps release and a brief
blast of air lays down the flatwork onto
the discharge ribbon set which carries
the piece to the ironer.
NOTE: Always follow the site
standards to avoid repetitive
motion injury.
