Film Feed Adjustments
Note: 1. This document is only a guide listing specification. If adjustments are required
follow procedures in your manual.
2. All adjustments should be checked or verified for any film feed problem.
3. Verify that all film feed updates have been installed.

Steps Description Specification
Reference: Model
959 Ll Service Manual
1 Supply Magazine Tray Position
Check that the outside edges of the suction cups are
1/8 to 3/16-inch from the leading edge of the film, and
are parallel to it.
If the suction cups are less than 1/8-inch from the edge
of the film, there may not be sufficient vacuum to pull
the film past the corner separators in the magazine
when it is full (125 sheets).
If the suction cups are more than 3/16-inch from the
edge, the suction required to pick up film may be
insufficient when fewer than 20 sheets remain in the
magazine.
If the suction cups are not parallel to the edge of the
film, they may be unable to pick up film, regardless of
the level of sheets in the supply magazine.
NOTE: On Daylight Load magazine adjust screw
(Refer figure C1 of the DLL Installation Instructions) so
when drawer is closed, film is positioned about
1/16-inch from stop. Film must not touch stop. Drawer
must open and close easily. Readjust if necessary.
Preliminary check step 3,
Section 3-1-9
2 Supply Magazine Film Tray Springs
Verify, with a full magazine, that there is an air gap
between the film and magazine stripper tab.
If not, then reshaping of DLM tray spring or trimming of
regular magazine tray spring may be required.
On regular magazine tray spring, trim until you get an
air gap between the film and stripper tab. Trim a 1/2
loop at a time.
None
3 Suction Cups Arms Low Position
Rotate the cam to check that all arms reach bottom
and start back up simultaneously.
Preliminary check step 4,
Section 3-1-10
4 Supply Magazine Window
Ensure that the Ball Plungers are snugly fit to prevent
slipping of the Supply Magazine Motor Gear at its
interface with the Ball Plungers in the Holding Bushing.
Section 3-1-11
5 Air Pot Rod Reverse Stopper
See figure 32C. Adjust the Air Pot Rod Reverse
Stopper to provide a 60 degree gap between the Air Pot
Rod lever and the Holding Plate. (Use a 60/30 degree
Triangle.)
Section 3-2-3
Steps Description Specification
Reference: Model
959 Ll Service Manual
6 Air Pot Rod Lever Stopper
Adjust the stopper position to obtain a 2 mm gap
between the rod and the lever shaft.
Section 3-2-4
NOTE: Check for excessive front to rear play. No more
than 1/8-inch of play. Verify that the Air Pot Support
moves freely.
IPB Section 9, Item 33
7 Film Start Clutch
See figure 3-2E. Adjust the Film Start Clutch to provide
a 0.2 to 0.3 mm gap between the arbor and the clutch.
Section 3-2-5
8 Air Pot Clutch
Adjust the Air Pot Clutch to provide a 0.2 to 0.3 mm gap
between the arbor and the clutch.
Section 3-2-7
9 Film Start Cam High Switch
The Film Start Cam High Switch must actuate when the
suction cups are at their highest position.
Clean and inspect Suction Cups for damage or wear.
Section 3-2-8
10 Film Start Cam Middle Switch
The Film Start Cam Middle Switch must actuate when
the suction cups are at the middle position.
Section 3-2-9
11 Film Start Cam Low Switch
The Film Start Cam Low Switch must actuate when the
suction cups are within 2-3 mm above the top sheet of
a full film pack.
A good measurement tool is a 2.5 mm allen wrench.
Section 3-2-10
12 Rocker Cam Start Switch
The Rocker Cam Start Switch must deactuate when the
roller bearing contacts the rearmost portion of the cam
start facet.
Section 3-2-11
13 Rocker Cam Stop Switch
The Rocker Cam Stop Switch must deactuate when the
roller bearing contacts the front edge of the cam stop
facet.
Section 3-2-12
14 Drive Belt
Verify that belts are tight enough to drive. Too much
tightness will cause the clutch to bind. Refer to figure
3-2U for belt adjustments.
Section 3-2-15
NOTE: Check movement of Air Pot Rod. If Belt H has
to much tension the Air Pot Rod will not home probably.
IPB Section B, Item 22
15 Pick Roller Tension
Roller must be clean first. Adjust the Pick Rollers to
300 + -25 grams tension. The tension between the
front and rear sets of rollers should be within 25 grams.
Section 3-2-16
NOTE: Before tension adjustment, verify that film
staging assembly1 brace is tight and roller turns freely.
IPB Section 10, Item 13

16 Film Detector A
The Film Detector A sensor S16 should deactuate
when a film is fed into the Pick Rollers, continue to be
deactuated as the film moves through the rollers, and
actuate when the film is no longer advanced by the Pick
Rollers.
Section 3-2-17
NOTE: The A sensor S16 is a magnetically-actuated
proximity (read) switch. As the magnet on the switch
actuating linkage (detector lever) moves close to the
switch, the switch actuates. When film contacts the
actuating linkage (detector lever), the magnet moves
away from the switch, deactuating the switch.
17 Push Level Stop Sensor
Feed film and observe a slight bow as the push levers
touch the trailing edge of the film (refer to figure 3-3G).
If not, perform the adjustment.
Adjust the position of PS1 until you observe a slight
bow in the film.
Section 3-3-5
18 Film Detector B
Film Detector B actuates when a film is on the detector
lever. There must be no deactuation as the film moves
across the lever. The Top Plate must not interfere with
the movement of the lever.
NOTE: The display should toggle to 0 when the lever
top is still slightly above the level of the Top Plate. This
ensures that any bounce that may occur as the film
moves across the lever will not deactuate the Detector
Switch.
Section 3-3-7
19 Double Film Feed Sensor
The Double Film Feed Sensor must actuate when more
than one sheet of film passes between the Nip Rollers
and the Drum.
Section 3-4-1
20 Double Film Feed Separator Tabs
Verify correct operation. The film should lightly contact
the separator tab.
P/O Section 11 Item 28
21 Film Detector F
Film Detector F must deactuate with film on the
Docking Plate. If adjusted too high, the laser lmager
feeds one film and then stops.
Film Detector F must be deactuated by the docking
plate when feeding to the receive magazine.
Section 3-5-5
22 Film Leading/Trailing Edge detector AMP
The Film Leading and Trailing Edge sensing circuits on
PWA-1 must detect the leading and trailing edges of the
film.
Attach Scope on the Blue lead PWA-J. While manually
turning the exposure drum, adjust RT-1 of PWA-J for
2.5 volts.
