Installation
This option allows the spreader/feeder to get its
automatic speed control signal from an encoder
wheel when the unit is paired with a non-Chicago
ironer.
Required Tools
screwdriver, 5/8” wrench, plastic wire
ties
Attach the encoder bracket at the left rear
of the discharge conveyor (Figure 2-21, A)
using the holes and hardware provided.
Connect the encoder signal wire to the
encoder wheel (Figure 2-21, B).
Route the signal wire along the inside of
the discharge conveyor arm (Figure 2-22)
and into the left endframe of the unit.
Open the left endframe door.
Route the wire as indicated in Figure 2-23.
Use the provided cable anchors.
Connect the cable wires to the terminal
block (Figure 2-20) as follows:
White (signal) to terminal 3.
Black (-24VDC) to terminal 9.
Red (+24VDC) to terminal 11.
Use plastic wire ties to secure the wire as
necessary.
Close and secure the left endframe door.
Make sure the encoder wheel rests on the
