To verify:
1. Slide feeder back far enough to clear the vacuum base side
guides. If necessary, loosen the knobs on both side guides and
pull to the outside slightly to allow movement of the feeder.
2. Insert a piece of product under the hold-down in such a way
that approximately 2/3 of the leading edge is extending out
beyond the feeder (Figure 2-7).
3. Slide feeder back into position, making sure it is again cen -
tered between the side guides. As you do so, also make sure
that the leading edge of the product moves into the transfer
section of the vacuum base unobstructed.
STEP 8:
Checking Product
Discharge from Feeder
Make sure rollers on vacuum base are raised in
the highest vertical position so that it does not
interfere with the product.
Checking for Proper Product Discharge from Feeder to Vacuum Base
4. Check to make sure the product is still under the hold-down
roller bearings and also resting on the vacuum base transfer
section.
5. Trap the feeder in-between the side guides until they gently
touch. Tighten side guide knobs.
