ADJ 1.24 F Size Max Capacity Closer Adjustment
An F size spool must be installed in the eWire to perform this adjustment.
A 10mm stack of punched body paper (A4 or LTR) is required to perform
this set up (100 sheets of 75 gsm or 90 sheets of 80gsm). Punch these
using the punch, bypassing the eWire.
This adjustment will have your repeat many of the steps performed in ADJ
1.23 Holder Closer F Adjustment. This is because when a full F size book
is on the holder, the pusher plate on the closer causes the book to pivot
slightly in the holder. The previous adjustment is performed to get a
baseline position for this setting, but it must be adjusted further with a full
book to improve closing quality.
1) Open the top cover and place an interlock cheater in the top
cover interlock.
2) Lift the Vacuum Stacker
3) Perform the feed element function test with the top cover open

paper you have

remove the interlock cheater.

6) Push the closer toward the holder by hand slowly until the
element is about to enter the closer.
a. Place your left hand on the holder and advance the
closer towards the holder until the element enters the
closer. Before the element enters the holder, the closer
pusher plate will compress the book causing the holder to
pivot slightly.
b. If you felt the holder being lifted by the closer when the
element met the closer jaw, HOLDER TO CLOSER F
must be reduced.
c. If the element entered the closer and did not lift at all,
reduce the HOLDER TO CLOSER F value until you feel
the closer lightly rub the bottom of the element when
performing step 5.
d. If the top of the element hit the top closer jaw, go back to
the Closer Full Open Delay Adjustment and increase the
delay. You will need to check your partial close once
more before returning to this adjustment
7) Repeat steps 2-6 until the element enters the closer jaw with
minimal shifting
8) Perform steps 2-4
9) Select PARTIAL CLOSE. Do not remove the interlock, allow the
closer to grab the element

10) Open the book drawer and look at the closer through the opening
it reveals. You may need to pull the closer back to see it. Check to
see if the top and bottom tips of the element are touching the back
face of the closer. If they are not, double check the adjustments
you just performed.
