1812 Folder Disk Clutch Retrofit Kit
Martin Yale #WRA1812510
Background:
Early production Martin Yale Model 1812 Folders were originally equipped with a
spring-clutch type feed wheel clutch. These units are identifiable by the presence of a keyed feed
wheel.
Current production 1812 folders (After S.N. 1812: 39568.01122.M38, 1812230: 39566.01001.MXX,
1812UK: 39566.01001.MXX) are equipped with a friction disk type feed wheel clutch in lieu of the
previous spring-clutch. Folders with the friction disk type clutch can be identified by the presence of
bearings in the bore of the feed wheel. They can also be identified by the fact that the feed wheel on
these folders will spin freely of the feed wheel shaft in the direction that paper feeds.
This retro-kit allows a technician to convert an older unit originally equipped with the spring-type
clutch to the current disk clutch.
