Cleaning the Carriage Roller and Stop
7. The Drive Shaft rotates 720°
to perform one cycle. After the first complete
rotation, the Clutch will lock and will need to be released again to manu-
ally crank the machine through the rest of the cycle.
4.3 Cleaning the Carriage Roller and Stop
The Carriage Roller and Stop should be cleaned once a week, or as required.
The following procedure is also included in the Operating Manual.
Procedure
1. Set the operating mode to Double Pass, and the Book Thickness Adjust-
ment to maximum.
2. Take a maximum thickness (6.5mm) A4 size booklet, and wrap a sheet of
paper around the outside. Alternatively, take about 30 sheets of A3 80gsm
paper and fold into an A4 size booklet.
3. Apply a thin coating of a suitable cleaning product (see below) to the spine
of the booklet.
4. Hand feed the booklet into the ASM in the normal way. Re-insert the
booklet and process about 6 times.
5. Remove the outer sheet, to give a fresh clean surface, and repeat step 4.
Suitable cleaning products include alcohol (isopropanol), offset litho blanket
wash or RS Solvent Cleaner Aerosol (Watkiss Part No. 951-097). Always ob-
serve any health and safety information supplied with cleaning products.
Warning
Cleaning solvents are flammable. DO NOT spray them directly into the ASM.
Caution
Do not attempt to use a cloth to clean the carriage roller. This may leave loose
fibres or debris inside the machine.
4.4 Clearing a Paper Jam
A paper jam will normally only occur for one of the following reasons:
• The unlikely event of the Drive Motor stalling
• There is a problem with the machine, e.g. a fuse has blown and the
Clamp is not operating
The ASM should automatically clear a jam if it is switched off and on. If this
operation fails, then the following procedure should be adopted:
Procedure
1. Switch off the power and disconnect the mains input lead.
2. Remove either Side Cover as necessary, and push the Carriage clear of the
jam with a wooden ruler, or similar.
3. Ease the booklet from the Clamp. Make sure that all of the booklet is re-
moved.
CAUTION
Do not try to lever the Clamp apart, this will damage the machine.
4. If the booklet is difficult to remove, cycle the machine by hand until the
Clamp is open (see 4.2).
Find and rectify the cause of the jam (see 2.4) before restarting the ASM.
