Carton Blanks

 

To replenish the magazine while the machine is running, stack the carton blanks behind the follower plate and then slide the follower plate out from the stack.  Make sure the printed side of the carton blanks is facing the follower plate, with the manufacturer's flap down.  Move the follower plate to the end of the stack and push against the stack, removing any gaps that may be present before resetting the follower plate onto the chain.

Top Carton Drive

 

When the carton magazine is empty or if there are not enough blanks to support it, the top carton drive unit will pivot downwards. To prevent the top carton drive unit from hanging down and to make it easier to load the carton blanks, hold the drive unit up slightly, remove the support pin from it's vertical stored position,and insert the pin into the hole on the top of the unit as shown in the picture below. This will hold the top carton drive unit up and out of the way while carton blanks are being loaded.  When sufficient carton blanks have been loaded, remove the pin and let the top carton drive unit rest on the top of the carton blanks. Return the support pin to it's stored position.
