Jam conditions
If a paper jam occurs in the folder, the folder attempts to process sheets within the folding system before stopping. The diverter at the front of the bridge then flips up, closing the bridge entrance, and diverting documents to the floor under the bridge.
A jam condition is signaled by an audible alert (beep), and by the ERROR LED on the operator’s control panel.
Clearing a jam
General note
When any door or other chassis cover is opened or removed, all electric motors and mechanical components capable of causing injury are immediately disabled, whether or not a jam condition exists. Power will be restored only when the jam condition (if any) is cleared, and all doors/covers are replaced.
WARNING
The interlock system is designed to prevent access to components capable of causing injury. Do not try to defeat any interlock by taping or otherwise artificially holding it closed. In the event that the service interlock override switch is left on, the folder will emit a beep every 30 seconds.
WARNING
Line voltage (115 or 230Vac) is present at exposed points on the accordion folder base frame (back of the power entry module, and at fuses on the power supply board). This applies whether or not the interlock circuit is intact. Access to these danger points is prevented by a plastic panel at the rear of the accordion folder, which must not be removed by other than a qualified service technician.
The following sections deal with jam clearing in specific locations signaled by the display on the operator’s control panel.
