SECTION 6: OPERATIONS
Test Run
Before you test your Power Feeder, give it a quick inspection.
1.Are all fasteners tight?
2.Are the mounting bolts secured to the machine table top?
3.Is the power feeder oriented properly for the type of job you will do?
4.Are each of the lock handles tightened securely?
Once assembly is complete and adjustments are done to your satisfaction, you are ready to test the machine.
Do Not feed stock through at this time.
Turn on the power supply at the main panel. Press the START button. Make sure that your fin- ger is poised on the STOP button, just in case there’s a problem. The power feeder should run smoothly, with little or no vibration or rubbing noises. Strange or unnatural noises should be investigated and corrected before operating the machine further.
WARNING: DO NOT attempt to investigate or adjust the machine while it is running. Wait until the machine is turned off, unplugged and all working parts have come to a rest before you do anything!
If noises occur that cannot be found by visual inspection, feel free to contact our service depart- ment for help.
