Introduction to Jam Clearance Procedures
A series of corrective procedures are to be used by the operator to clear
jams.
Note:
If a jam occurs during a multi-print procedure, the bridge flap
goes up and the folder goes into the Pause Mode. This operation is
covered fully in the Pause Mode Procedure.
The following pages will give you the detailed steps to take when you
are clearing a jam. The folder will inform the operator where the jam is
located by using an alarm tone and the message display:
•
A single tone if jam occurs in the Bridge
•
A double tone if the jam occurs in the Fan Section
•
A triple tone if the jam occurs in the Cross Section
To avoid larger jams, perform the Automated Eject Procedure. Keep the
Reset key pressed for more than two seconds. Then when the reset key is
pressed, the rollers start. If the reset key is pressed for less than two
seconds, after a five-second delay, the folder exits the Manual Eject
Procedure.
If the Manual Eject Procedure does not succeed in removing the paper
jam, follow the procedures on the following pages.
