Running Mail
1. Sort the mail by envelope size and unless you are using the optional
WOW module, sort by weight also. If you are using the accounting fea-
ture, sort by account as well.
2. Shingle the envelopes so
they are slanted slightly to the
left as shown in the picture on
the right.
3. Place the stack of mail on the feed deck shown in the picture below.
• Place the envelopes with the flaps down and against the rear wall.
• Make sure the envelopes are pushed far enough so that they cover
the feed sensor on the rear wall.
