Dealing With Jammed Letters / Paper Scraps (Problems During Operation) - FP Access B400 Guia De Funcionamiento

5.5 Auto-reverse in the event of a letter jam
If a letter jams under the slitting mechanism (11), the motor switches off and about two seconds later
goes automatically into reverse, sliding the letter back onto the feed table (5) where it is easily acces-
sible. The diode (4) continues to blink until letters have been removed from the feed platform (5), thus
releasing the letter release lever (6). When the diode (4) is again steadily lit, the letter opener is once
more ready for operation. Letters can then be opened according to working steps 5.2.2 | 5.2.4.
5.6 Appliance cooling
If the appliance is used to open letters continuously without interruption (letter release lever (6) actu-
ated continuously) for two minutes and longer, the integrated fan is automatically activated for the
purpose of motor cooling. The cooling continues for a further four minutes after the last letter is
opened (low noise is heard). On switching off the letter opener by the mains switch (3), the fan and
therefore the cooling is also switched off with no negative effects to the appliance.

6. Dealing with jammed letters / paper scraps (problems during operation)

6.1 Removing a jammed letter
Should a letter jam and remain stuck in the slitting mechanism (11) despite the auto-reverse action,
proceed as follows:
6.1.1 Press down the letter release button (9) on the protec-
tive cover (10) while carefully pulling out the letter
against the normal feed direction, i.e. to the left. Then
let go of the letter release button (9).
The letter opener is once more ready for opera-
tion.
Attention! Do not use fingers in attempts to remove residual
scraps of paper from the slitting mechanism (11)
under the protective cover (10) (risk of injury).
Also, do not use a hard or pointed object for this purpose (risk of damage). In this case
proceed according to 6.2 below.
6.2 Removing paper scraps
If scraps of paper become jammed in the slitting mechanism (11) under the protective cover (10), for
example from a damaged letter that has been fed into the machine, proceed as follows:
6.2.1 Switch off the letter opener at the mains switch (3) and
disconnect the power supply unit (1) from the power
connector (2).
6.2.2 Carefully insert the rod (13) from the accessory box
into the opening (14) at the rear of the machine, until
slight resistance is felt (press it down gently during
insertion). Maintain this pressure while sliding the
protective cover (10) approx. 5 mm to the left, then pull
it away to the front.
