5.4 Opening letters along three edges
For three-sided letter opening, first proceed according to the working steps described under 5.3
(opening letters along their two long edges). Then proceed as follows to open them along one of the
short edges:
1.
Fold-up the letter guide (8) and withdraw it to fit the
long edge width of the letters to be opened. Attention:
the edge stop needs to be positioned flush with the let-
ters, but not so as to prevent them from flowing freely
through the transport belts and under the slitting
mechanis.
2.
Feed the letters to be opened according to working
step 5.2.4.
Envelopes may now be unfolded and the letter contents removed.
Attention! Opening letters along three edges works for C6/5, C5 and B5 letter formats, or similar.
5.5 Auto-reverse in the event of a letter jam
If a letter jams under the slitting mechanism (11), the motor switches off and about two seconds later
goes automatically into reverse, sliding the letter back onto the feed table (5) where it is easily accessi-
ble. The diode (4) continues to blink until letters have been removed from the feed platform (5), thus
releasing the letter release lever (6). When the diode (4) is again steadily lit, the letter opener is once
more ready for operation. Letters can then be opened according to working steps 5.2.2 – 5.2.4.
5.6 Appliance cooling
If the appliance is used to open letters continuously without interruption (letter release lever (6) actu-
ated continuously) for two minutes and longer, the integrated fan is automatically activated for the
purpose of motor cooling. The cooling continues for a further four minutes after the last letter is
opened (low noise is heard). On switching off the letter opener by the mains switch (3), the fan and
therefore the cooling is also switched off with no negative effects to the appliance.
6. Dealing with jammed letters / paper scraps (problems during operation)
6.1 Removing a jammed letter
Should a letter jam and remain stuck in the slitting mechanism (11) despite the auto-reverse action,
proceed as follows:
