4.2.3.3 Plastic Position Handwheel
Step: 1. Turn plastic feed ON. Run two sheets of paper through machine.
Step: 2. Use the machine speed controller to index both sheets of paper together to ensure plastic is lined
up property. If they do not line up, run two more sheets of paper, repeat until proper alignment is
achieved.
Note ! Check to ensure plastic stop is not set too close or too far away from plastic.
Step: 3. Flip one sheet over, then use the machine speed controller to index both sheets together. Plastic
on reversed sheet should back up plastic on other sheet. If this is not achieved, perform feeder
adjustment in Steps 4 through 6.
Step: 4. Remove locking screw that retains nut inside plate of feeder. Do not lose washer located behind
shoulder of locking screw. (See Fig. 4-20. ).
Step: 5. Rotate nut clockwise to move plastic toward middle of paper. Rotate nut counterclockwise to move
plastic toward end of sheet, insuring washer is located between nut shoulder and plate.
Step: 6. Adjust feeder forward or backward until two sheets can run through machine with plastic properly
backing up reversed sheet.
Step: 7. Repeat steps 1, 2, 3, 5 and 6 until plastic is properly centered.
Step: 8. Reinstall locking screw and tighten.
