5. FEEDING DEVICES
5.1 Placing The FD
260 In-Line
To operate the FD 260 in-line with your feeding
device, place the output end of the feeding device
next to the input end of the FD 260. Leave about an
1
/
8
" gap between the machines. Align machines to
place tabs where desired on the mail pieces.
The gap between the feeding device and the FD 260
may need adjusting if the mail pieces are curled or
rigid. If the mail pieces’ leading edge curls up, the
gap should be larger than
1
/
8
" to allow the curled edge
to come down before entering the FD 260. If the
leading edge curls down, the gap should be as small
as possible, so the mail pieces will not fall between
the two machines. A rigid mail piece may require a
larger gap if it hits the bracket above the FD 260
PAPER PATH.
NOTE
Turn on the FD 260 before turning on any feeding
device. If the FD 260 is not turned on first,
it will not accept the fed mail pieces.
NOTE
Some equipment, when run in-line with the FD
260, requires a stand to raise it to the level of the
FD 260. When ordering additional equipment,
specify which machine you plan to operate in-line
with the FD 260.
