Title: Feeders pull back after index
Post by: arvydas on August 21, 2015, 08:25:03 AM
Have one annoying problem. Some feeder lanes occasionally pull back the tape after index. It looks as if the "click" does not happen. Is this mechanical issue? This does not happen if I manually index feeders, only during automatic placement.

Could be a sticking pin - a good clean may be in order but DO NOT put any sort of oil on, as this will get caked up with paper dust.

Thanks, will crack the feeder open and will have a look what's going on.
