Aligning the Feeder
The Feeder is pre-adjusted to align perfectly with most individual Flex- tight 848 and 949 Scanners. However, some scanners may have a drum that is aligned slightly outside of the tolerance range of the Feeder. If your original holders are not being drawn correctly into the scanner, then you may need to adjust your Feeder alignment as described below. You should check both the angle at which it hangs on the scanner and the position at which it loads original holders. In most cases, however, this is not neces- sary. Usually, you will need to do this just once if at all.
Adjusting the Feeder Angle
The Feeder should hang on the scanner with an even spacing from top to bottom. It should not sit, for example, farther from the scanner at the top than it does from the bottom. Use the procedure below to check the angle and correct it if necessary.
1.Use the software-assisted procedure to mount the Feeder to the scan- ner as described in “Mounting the Feeder” on page 8.
2.Check that the Feeder is aligned with the front of the scanner. The air gap in the top and the bottom between the Feeder and the scanner should be equal, as indicated in Figure 6.
