Bill Stacker Alignment

Proper alignment of the bill stacker to the note acceptor is critical for the bill transport
operation. A poorly aligned stacker is the number one cause of bill jams between the
acceptor and stacker. The following instructions and diagrams will aid in the inspection
and alignment between these two devices.

Inspection Procedure

With the bill acceptor and stacker mounted in place, the stacker should be level and
centered to the bottom of the acceptor as illustrated by Figure 1. The clearance between
the bottom of the acceptor and the stacker should be less than 1/8 inch for maximum
operation. Figure 2 illustrated the inspection point for this adjustment.

Adjustment Procedure

Figure 2 illustrates the two locations for adjusting the bill stacker alignment. The first
adjustment (adjustment A) controls how level the bill stacker is compared to the note
acceptor. The stacker bracket handle can be either shortened or extended until the bill
stacker sits level. The second adjustment (adjustment B) is used to raise or lower the
stacker bracket to set the clearance between the bill stacker and the note acceptor.

NOTE: When making these adjustments, a long extension with a 7/16” socket will fit
through the elongated holes in the stacker bracket handle and will help to hold the stacker
in place while loosening or tightening the mounting nuts. Be careful not to over tighten
the mounting nuts or the mounting studs may break off.

Figure 1

The notch on the bill
receiver must be
centered with the notch
on the note acceptor as
much as possible.  An
acceptable tolerance
would be if the receiver
notch is off center by no
more than ½ the notch
on the note acceptor.
Any more than ½ notch
needs to be adjusted.
