Edge MAXX Operating Guidelines
3-5
Safety STOP button (B):
Provided to help assure operator safety and
to prevent damage to the unit. There are six
of these red safety STOP buttons, one at each
operator station and one on each endframe, front
and rear.
When pressed, these stop all moving parts,
release internal air pressure, and lock out
operation of the unit.
A red safety STOP button stays pressed down
until manually reset by twisting clockwise.
Before restarting the unit, correct the problem
that resulted in the red safety STOP button being
pressed.
STAIN/TEAR REJECT buttons (option)
(C, D):
Determine how stained or torn flatwork are
handled by the CHICAGO
®
folder at the end of
the line. If equipped, each operator station has a
set of these buttons.
Pieces marked by pressing the TEAR button
will be rejected onto an area separate from items
rejected with the STAIN button.
These buttons should be pushed after the
stained or torn flatwork is spread out but before
it is laid down onto the discharge ribbons. The
programming for discharge locations takes place
at the folder.
CHI Panel (E):
Allows fully automatic operation of the unit
under a wide range of conditions. For a complete
description of the CHI Panel’s functions, refer to
the CHI PANEL OPERATION bulletin.
If the machine is ChiLinc enabled, there will
be two additional buttons just to the right of the
CHI Panel. For information regarding the use
of these, refer to the
CHILINC
manual,
Using
ChiLinc on the Production Floor chapter, Using
the CHI Panel section.
Interconnected Stop Circuit (option)
indicator lights (F):
If the unit has the optional Interconnected Stop
Circuit system installed, lights indicate whether
an interlock on a unit in the line is open:
If all lights on all units are green
(SYSTEM READY), the line is
operational.
If one unit light is green while the other
unit(s) light’s are red (SYSTEM E-
STOP) , the unit with the green light has
an open interlock. Check it’s CHI Panel
for location.
Pacing Light (option) (G):
Gives operators a visual reference to help
assure consistent linen processing.
The green light glows steady to indicate the
target feeding rate for the previous hour was
met. The red light flashes to indicate the target
rate was not met.
Use the CHI Panel to set the target pieces per
hour. For more information, refer to the CHI
PANEL OPERATION bulletin, Adjustments
section,

procedure.
