2.0 Installation

2.1 Unpacking

Carefully unpack the Model 1601 letter folder and accessories.  Place the Model 1601 on a flat, level surface
where it is to be used.  It is necessary to have a clear area at the exit end of the folder to place the exit ramp.
Place all of the packing material back in the shipping box and store the box for any future shipment of the Model
1601.  Inspect the Model 1601 and all accessories for shipping damage.  If any damage is found, contact the
carrier immediately.  

Note:  Always pick up the Model 1601 by its sides, never attempt to lift it by grasp-

ing the roller cover or tables.

2.2 Feed Table

The Model 1601 is equipped with a two position non-removable feed
table.  The Model 1601 comes packaged with the feed table in the
down position for shipment and storage.  Before the Model 1601 is
used, the feed table will need to be tilted up into the operating position.
Grasp the rear edge of the feed table and pull up 

(Fig. 3)

.  The feed

table legs will automatically swing down into position.  Lock the feed
table into place by insuring the leg shoulder nut slips securely into the
slot in the feed table leg 

(Fig. 4)

.  To put the feed table back down for

shipping purposes, simply pull the feed table legs 

away from

the fold-

er and let the feed table down.  

After the feed table is in position, the feed table extension may be
put into place.  First locate the feed table extension in the accesso-
ry package.  Install by lining its 2 protrusions with the corresponding
slots on the feed table and inserting the protrusions into the slots.
When it is correctly installed in position, it will lay flat on the feed
table
