Loading Paper on the FlexJet E

1.Before loading a new paper roll always make sure the drive shaft is clean. See the Routine Maintenance section for more details.

2.Place a paper hub in each end of the paper roll using a rubber mallet.

3.Slide the feed shaft through the paper hubs and the paper roll. If a paper hub falls out, press it firmly back into the end of the paper roll and re-seat it with a rubber mallet.

4.For paper narrower than 70-in, center the paper roll on the feed shaft. Make sure the hubs remain securely in place. For paper greater than 70-in in width, offset the paper to the left slightly to avoid covering the Service Station area. Also leave a mini- mum 1/4 inch gap between the paper edge and the edge of the fan on the left side of the rear cover of the machine.

5.Use the supplied hex wrench to tighten both screws on each paper hub.

6.Check that the right support block is clear of debris and apply a light coating of white lithium grease (found in the Accessory Kit.)

7.Lift the feed shaft ends, one at a time, into the support blocks.
