11.5Run Boxes to Inspect Adjustment (Figure 11-5)

Important: Before starting the machine, verify that no tools or other objects are on the conveyor bed.

Turn electrical and air pressure switches to On. This starts the drive belts and engages the pneumatic air pressure system. Move box forward until it contacts the Side Guides Centering Switch in the machine bed which automatically center the box. Continue moving the box forward until it contacts the Upper Drive Assembly Actuator Switch. The Upper Drive Height adjustment adjusts automatically as the box is taken away by the drive belts. Always push at the end of the box. If the box is not centered correctly or the Upper Drive Assembly does not contact the top of the box correctly, see pressure adjustment settings and/or the Troubleshooting Section.

CAUTION

•To reduce the risk associated with pinch hazards:

− Keep hands clear of the upper head support assembly as boxes are transported through the machine.

− Keep hands, hair, loose clothing, and jewelry away from box compression rollers.

− Always feed boxes into the machine by pushing only from the end of the box.

− Keep hands, hair, loose clothing, and jewelry away from moving belts and taping heads.

Note – The upper head has a unique feature for overstuffed boxes. The head will raise up to 13mm [0.5 inches] to compensate for this condition.

Important – If drive belts are allowed to slip on box, excessive belt wear will occur.

Note - For belt replacement and tension specifications - refer to
