6115 Finisher - Tape not feeding all the way in
Problem:
When trying to bind a job, it is noticed that the tape does not properly register to the bottom of the booklet. Suspceted tape feed head not throwning in far enough.
Action:
- Action #1
- Replaced Tape feed head to see if cause of problem (has solved in past due to bad motor)
-
- Resolve: same problem remained
- Action #2
- Removed binder reel to look at drag brake action.
-
- Resolve: Found drag brake causing too much tension to allow some operation of reel during bind job.
- Action: Loosened two 7mm nuts and pulled drag brake away to allow freer movement of the bind reel.
Resolve:
Action #2 resolved problem and produced acceptable results for a bind job.
