    [Jamming] PF-660 misfeeds jam J63

    I guess that this qualifies as a Heads Up.

    I have quite a few CS-8030s with PF-660 large capacity trays. Depending on how the ledger paper is loaded in the LCT it might jam J63 every time.

    The upper paper inlet guide rear (with upper limit sensor) has a torsion spring keeping downward pressure. The upper inlet guide front (without upper limit sensor) does not have a torsion spring, relying on gravity to keep the guide down.



    On a couple of my machines I have added a torsion spring to hold down the upper inlet guide front, and it does exactly what is needed. Even some additional weight on the guide might help, but the spring solution is more elegant.

    The torsion spring at the rear does not appear in the most current PF660 parts manual, but the part number is 303KZ06261. I haven't attempted it yet, but I suspect that I can retrofit it work for the front position. Here are the "before" pix.

    Anyone have a better solution?

    If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
    1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
    2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
    3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
    4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
    5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.
