Air Chicago (Standard/XW/XL/XXL)
Operating Guidelines
3-15
Good Technique
To get accurate folds, towels must be fed
accurately into the Air Chicago. Each item must
be placed straight on the inlet ribbons.
Place the item on the inlet ribbons according
to whether a French or a half primary fold is
desired.
For a proper French primary fold, the towel
must be centered on the inlet ribbons so that the
primary fold skis divide it evenly into thirds as
illustrated in Figure 3-8.
Half primary folds are obtained by feeding the
item on the left side of the Air Chicago. Position
the towel so that it is centered on the outside edge
of the left primary fold ski, as in Figure 3-9.
Stain/Tear Rejection
Stained or torn pieces are tagged for rejection
by pushing the REJECT button while the piece
is entering the unit. The piece automatically
bypasses folding and is sent out of the rear of
the unit.
If a piece is misfolded so that it is too wide
for the first crossfold, the linen automatically
bypasses the crossfold section and is delivered at
the rear of the unit. The warning buzzer sounds
and a message appears in the folder control
display.
