TROUBLESHOOTING

Feeding,  Bursting,  and  Stacking  problems  ar  usually 

due to improper adjustment of the machine to the forms 

or due to non-standaTd or defective. forms. Refer to the 

table below for typical problems.

Most  problems  fall  into.  one  of  three  categories: 

Electrical, Mechanical, or Form Flow. Electrical troubles 

are usually obvious in that the machine will not run or 

respond in the normal manner to its

controls. Mechanical problems are usually 

accompanied by noise, slippage, tearing, or binds. If 

aform flow problem is present, jamming, misstacking 

or intermittent form damage will occur. The problems 

should be diagnosed to one of the three categories 

before proceeding to pinpoint the problem, The 

best approach is a logical elimination of possible 

malfunctions.
