MFT Feeder Installation
The numbers in parentheses refer to the items in Figure 1 (a rear view of the Feeder) and Figure 2 (a front view
of the Feeder). The numbers on each figure are identical.
1. Using appropriate means of lifting carefully remove the Feeder assembly from its box and place it in its
correct operating position and direction.
2. Use a Multifeeder Technology Stand-On-Rollers and compatible mounting hardware or mounting provided
by the user to securely mount the friction Feeder.
3. Install the Product Support Curve (2, Figure 4). Product Support Curve (2) should be placed on the top of
the slotted housing frame bracket for small products and on the back of the housing frame bracket for large
products.
4. Install the Product Support Rod(s) (3). Each Product Support Rod(s) (3) should be mounted as shown in
Figure 4. Position the Product Support Rod (3) so that the curved sharpened tip faces inward and is
aligned with the center line of the Feed Belt (7) and that it does not touch either the Stripper Wheel (9) or
Feed Belt (7). If two or more Product Support Curves (2) are used, they should be positioned at identical
heights and locations with respect to the Stripper Wheels (9) and Feed Belts (7).
5. Install the Magazine Side Plate (4) and (5). Place one Magazine Side Plate (4) and (5) on the outside of the
far right Feed Belt (7) assembly and one on the outside of the far left Feed Belt (7) assembly.
NOTE! The magazine plate lips should funnel inward towards the feed belts.
6. If ordered, install the Low Product Sensor (not pictured). Plug the Low Product Sensor into the J3-Low
Product connector located on the back of the electrical Feeder housing.
7. If ordered, install the Photo-Optic / Proximity Start Sensor (not pictured). Plug the start sensor into the J1start status connector located on the back of the electrical Feeder housing.

Feeder Installation and Setup
MFT Feeder Setup
Before you begin the setup procedure, be certain that the Feeder motor is disabled. This can be accomplished
either by turning the power off on the main power switch or by pressing the FEEDER OFF key on the
membrane keypad. (The LCD display remains ON in this mode but displays FEEDER OFF - PRESS ON TO
ENABLE). The numbers in parentheses () refer to the items in Figure 1 and Figure 2. Figure 1 is a rear view of
the Feeder and Figure 2 is a front view of the Feeder. The numbers on each figure are identical.

Feed and Discharge Belt Location
Position the Feed Belts (7) and Discharge Belts (8) according to the following table

Feed belt & Discharge Belt Settings
Number of Feed Belt Assemblies

Fold product into

Below is an example of belt placement on a feeder with two belts. Center the belts on the fold
represented by the dotted lines in the illustration below.

Correct

Incorrect

Equal belt spacing ensures a uniform product discharge. If the product discharge is non-uniform, the user
needs to consider the non-uniformities inherent in belt placement. For example, if a raised portion exists on the
product, MFT recommends not positioning belts over the raised portion. For a uniform product requiring two
belts, the following configuration is recommended: testing will help determine the best configuration for belt
placement.
1. To position the belts, first locate the setscrews on the discharge pulleys and the main feed belt pulleys. Use
a 2.5 mm metric Allen wrench to loosen the setscrews on the pulleys.
2. After the setscrews are loose, position the discharge pulleys, the main feed belt pulleys, and the freefloating pulleys according to the instructions above.
3. Position the Stripper Wheels (9) such that they are directly above each of the feed belts. To move the
Stripper Wheels (9), first locate the setscrews. Insert a 2.5mm metric Allen wrench into the set screw heads
and turn counterclockwise to loosen.
4. Position the Product Support Rod (3) so that products can pass between the bottom of the Product Support
Rod (3) and the Feed Belts (7) as follows:
a) For very thin products (0.05mm - 0.25mm): Adjust the height of the Product Support Rod (3) so that the
distance between the Feed Belt (7) and the sharpened tip of the Product Support Rod (3) equals a
stack of 10-20 products, approximately 2-5 mm.
b) For medium products (0.25mm - 2mm): Allow a distance of 6-15 products, approximately 3mm - 8mm.

Feeder Installation and Setup
c) For medium thick products (2mm - 4mm): Allow a distance of 3-10 products, approximately 5-10 mm.
d) For thick products (4mm - 6.25mm): Allow a distance of 2-5 products, approximately 8-15 mm.
e) For very thick products (6.25mm - 26mm): Allow a distance of 1 product, approximately 15mm - 30mm.
Note: Depending on your familiarity with the feeder setup it may be advantageous to remove the Magazine Side
Plate (5) closest to the control panel by loosening the Twist Knobs (6) in Figure 1 for easier viewing of set up.
5. Use the Stripper Wheel Height Knob (10) to adjust the Stripper Wheel (9) height allowing one product
between the Stripper Wheels (9) and the Feed Belts (7). Adjust the Stripper Wheel (9) for slight resistance
as you slide the product between the Stripper Wheels (9) and the Feed Belts (7). The product should be
moveable using only two fingers and yet have noticeable resistance to pulling.
a) If the gap between the Stripper Wheels (9) and the Feed Belts (7) is too tight, rotate the Stripper Wheel
Height Knob (10) clockwise to reduce the pressure.
b) If the gap between the Stripper Wheels (9) and the Feed Belts (7) is too loose, rotate the Stripper
Wheel Height Adjustment Knob (10) counter clockwise to increase the pressure.
6. Insert one product between the top and bottom Discharge Belts (8) in the entrance of the discharge section.
Use the Discharge Height Adjustment Knob (11) to adjust the height of the top discharge belts using the
same procedure described in step 6. Ideally, the grip on the product in the discharge section will be slightly
looser than that in the stripper wheel section.
7. Insert one product between the top and bottom discharge belts at the discharge exit area. Use the
Discharge Height Adjustment Knob (14) at the end of the discharge table to adjust the product pressure as
you did in steps 6 and 7. The pressure on the product at the discharge exit should be the same as the
pressure at the discharge entrance (step 7). It is very important that the pressures on the left and right
sides of the product are equal. In other words, the discharge exit roller shaft must be level. You can check
that the pressures are equal by dragging the product by its left and right tip until you feel equal pressure.
Note: If the product skews as it feeds, there is too much pressure on the product.
8. Position the Product Sensor Pair
(12) to properly and reliably read the
product as it passes through the
Feeder. It is very important that the
emitter and receiver of the Product
Sensor Pair (12) are inline with one
another. This simply means that the
emitter and receiver are vertically
aligned. A good position requires
that the emitter and receiver not be
too close to an edge or near a place
on the product with slots, clear
areas or holes. For example: In
Figure 3 the Product Sensor Pair
(12) placed in the center of the
product and avoids the “Hole” as the
product flows through the Feeder.

Feeder Installation and Setup
9. Press the FEEDER ON (see p. 21) hot key to enable the Feeder.
10. Once at the ready screen access the Feeder’s menu options by pressing the MENU key on the membrane
Keypad (13). Select the Product Feeding Length menu by pressing the “1” key. Measure the length of the
product being fed and enter the value. Refer to p.29 for further information on how to enter the product
feeding length.
11. Press the CHANGE SPEED hot key and enter a value of 100.
12. Press the CHANGE COUNT hot key and enter a value of 1.
13. Take a small stack of products (6-10 products) and place it in the product magazine with the front end of the
bottom product lying on the Feed Belts (7) facing the Stripper Wheels (9). Adjust the Product Support Curve
assembly (2) to support the products similar to the illustration in Figure 4. Note that for larger products the
product stack may only be resting on the product support curve tip and its shoulder. Note also that for
larger products the Product Support Curve (2) assembly can be mounted on the back of the housing frame
bracket.
14. Press JOG and observe the spacing between the products as they exit the Feeder. To fine-tune the
stripper wheel adjustment, check the product spacing by the Product Sensor Pair.
a) < 12mm (1/2"): Decrease the height of the Stripper Wheels with respect to the Feed Belts by rotating
the thickness adjuster knob (10) counter clockwise.
b) > 50mm (2"): Increase the height of the Stripper Wheels with respect to the feed belt by rotating the
thickness adjuster knob (10) clockwise.
15. Position the Product Support Curves (2) so that the distance from the Product Support Rods (3) is slightly
more than the product length (see Figure 4). The product support curves should be positioned to lift some
of the weight off the Feed Belts (7) while they guide the product. Be careful not to let the Product Support
Curves Touch (7) the Feed Belts (9). This will lead to premature feed belt wear.
16. Add approximately 50mm (2in) of additional product to the initial stack.
17. Press the JOG key to observe that the product properly and consistently falls onto the Feed Belts (7) and
that the product feeds correctly. Adjust the Product Support Curve (2) if necessary to improve the
performance.
18. Press the JOG key to position one product between the Product Sensor Pair (12).
19. Press the SET PROD THICKNESS hot key to store the product thickness in the Feeder’s memory.
20. Reinstall the Magazine Side Plate (5) if remove. The Magazine Side Plate (4) and (5) should be
symmetrical with respect to the center of the Feeder and allow approximately 3mm (1/8") on each side of
the product stack. This enables the product to pass downward freely.
21. Load magazine with product and press the JOG key to observe the distance between the products as they
are fed.
a) < 12mm (1/2"): Rotate or increase the height of the Product Support Curve (2) to decrease the weight
of the product on the Feed Belts (7). It may also be necessary to slightly decrease the height of the
Stripper Wheels (9) with respect to the Feed Belts (7).
b) > 50mm (2"): Rotate or decrease the height of the Product Support Curve (2) to increase the weight of
the product on the Feed Belts (7). It may also be necessary to slightly increase the height of the
Stripper Wheels (9) with respect to the Feed Belts (7).

Feeder Installation and Setup
22. Press the JOG TO CLEAR key to test feeding. Check to be sure the product is coming out straight and that
there is approximately 12mm (1/2") to 50mm (2") of space between products when they are between the
Product Sensor Pair (12).
23. Use the CHANGE SPEED hot key to enter the production speed and the CHANGE COUNT hot key to enter
the production count.
24. Press the JOG TO CLEAR key to test feeding again. Once more, check to be sure that the product is
coming out straight and that there is approximately 12mm (1/2") to 50mm (2") of space between products
when they are between the Product Sensor Pair (12).
25. If using a product sensor to trigger the feed cycle, set the Feeder to Auto On with the AUTO ON/OFF key or
press CYCLE START to begin feeding without a product sensor.

Feeder Tips
1. Product Support Curve (2): The support curve should be placed as shown in the drawing for most
products. When working with products that are difficult to feed, the support curve can be raised to
reduce the product weight on the feed belts. Let the products feed with low stripper wheel pressure.
2. Clean Stripper Wheels (9) Regularly: Clean at the start of each shift. Dip a clean rag in isopropyl
alcohol. Press firmly and wipe the surface of each stripper wheel from side to side all the way around
each wheel.
3. Adjusting Stripper Wheels (9): Adjust the height of the stripper wheel shaft until you feel slight
resistance as you slide one product between the Stripper Wheels and the Feed Belts. When the
Feeder is loaded with a stack of product, the stripper wheel setting can be checked by rotating the
stripper wheel shaft. If the wheels turn freely the pressure is too light. If the shaft cannot be turned with
slight resistance, the pressure is too high. Do not over tighten the Stripper Wheels.

Product Length
Menu 1 allows the user to store, in the computer's memory, the length of the product being fed. The
computer then checks for product jams and multiple product feeds. Menu 1 may be selected by pressing the
“1” key while any of the MENU option screens are shown. When Menu 1 is selected, the program displays
the allowable product length range (25mm-1500mm), the current product length, and prompts the user to
enter the new product length as shown in the figure above. For your convenience, a ruler has been placed on
the Feeder housing directly below the membrane keypad. Please note that the product length must be
entered in millimeters (25mm = 1in).

Maximum Jog Speed
The Max Jog Speed screen allows the user to control the maximum speed at which the Feeder will operate
when used in the JOG mode. This function is particularly useful when the “operating” speed is set very high
and the user would like the option to jog at a lower speed. However, it is important to note that this function
controls the maximum jog speed. In other words, when the operating speed is set at a lower speed than the
Max Jog Speed, the Feeder will jog at the operating speed. The Max Jog Speed screen shows the allowable
Max Jog Speed range (1-100 MPM), the current Max Jog Speed value, and prompts the user to enter a new
value. The recommended Max Jog Speed is 20 MPM.

The Signal Delay screen gives the user the option of delaying the acknowledgment of the start
pulse at the start connector. This function is used primarily when the Feeder is integrated with
another machine. The signal may be delayed from 0 milliseconds to 1000 milliseconds (1 second).
When the delay is set to 0 the start pulse will be acknowledged immediately.

The Reports Screen is divided into 6 subheadings that allow the user to access different areas of the Feeder’s
log. In this menu, errors are identified and time stamped, and total production count is kept. The information
found in the Reports Screen may either be viewed on the LCD display or downloaded to a printer.
1. The View Summary Log screen allows the user to view a summary of the production run information, start
and stop dates and times, the number of faults that occurred during periods of operation, and a pack per
minute (PPM) product count.
2. The detail log provides a detailed summary account of Feeder activity. The information given includes a
summary of the production run, start and stop dates and times, the time and type of faults that occurred during
production runs, and the time and types of warnings that occurred during production runs.
3. The Reset Log option. NOTE! When this option is selected, all entries currently stored in the
production log will immediately be emptied. When this occurs, a screen declaring Figure 0-3 is shown
before the program returns to the previous menu
4. To print a Summary Log, Detail Log or Setting Log, first attach a computer or laptop (running Microsoft
Windows 95 or later with Microsoft Internet Explorer installed) to the Feeder via a NULL modem cable. On
the computer side open up HyperTerminal: Start->Programs->Accessories->Communication->HyperTerminal
Connect using COM1 at 19200 bps, 8 data bits, parity none, 1 stop bit, flow control hardware. Next go to the
menu Transfer->Capture Text… and call the file something like: summary, detail, or setting.htm.

and declaring a MAJOR PRODUCT JAM. This prevents the motor and amplifier from being damaged when
the Feeder is overloaded or jammed. If the Feeder isn’t jammed but MAJOR PRODUCT JAM is declared
several times, then raising the timeout value may be beneficial. The default timeout is 500 ms which is
adequate for most purposes.

the value causes the HCRM to calculate the stop position more conservatively, which may result in slower
run time and shorter stop position. Conversely, decreasing the value causes the HCRM to calculate the stop
position less conservatively, and may result in faster run time and a longer stop position. The default setting
is 50, and should not be changed under normal operating conditions.

occurs. The ability to control this function is particularly useful when several machines are integrated into a
large system. The setting is determined by system requirements and system integration. The Auto On/Off
screen shows the current Auto On/Off setting and gives the user the option of switching the setting.
When 1 (Fault Switch) is selected the Feeder will automatically switch to Auto Off when a fault is detected.
You must then manually press the AUTO ON hot key before the Feeder will acknowledge a start signal from
the host machine. When 0 (NO) is selected the Feeder will remain in the Auto On condition when a Feeder
fault occurs. The Feeder comes standard with a default setting of 1.

The information is gathered across the entire product and added together. This allows the Feeder to

overlapped thick areas to determine if a multiple product instance occurs. MPD accumulate is especially
useful when used on products with holes.

Pulse Window Setting
The Pulse Window screen gives the user the option of ignoring start pulses occurring between 0 and 30000
milliseconds after the last good start pulse was accepted. This shields the Feeder from spurious pulses
which may occur during feeding. If the Pulse Window is set to 0 each start pulse will be accepted. This
function is not available when using AccuTipping. When using AccuTipping, de-bounce is added to the start
pulse through the ADVANCED PSTART settings on p83.
To determine the Pulse Window, a quick calculation must be performed. First, determine the current running
speed of the host line in cycles per millisecond. Take the inverse of this number (1/cycles per millisecond) to
get our first variable, TIME1. Next, access Demo Mode (Menu 5) to determine the cycles per minute.
Convert this value to cycles per millisecond (divide by 60000). Take the inverse of this number to get our
second variable, TIME2. Your Pulse Window should be set to TIME1-TIME2. Please note that the time it
takes the Feeder to dispense one product does not change for different line speeds, unless any parameters
are changed or speed compensation is enabled. Then the Pulse Window strictly becomes a function of the
line speed.

Digital I/O Screen 3 of 3 - Reject on Error Signals
IO Card Reject-on-Error.
The Reject-On-Error Output can be configured to drive any one of the optically isolated outputs on the I/O
CARD (purchased separately) from the point where a Multiple Product Detect (MPD) or minor JAM is found
up until the next feed cycle is started. The Reject-On-Error signal will also go back low if the clear key, jog, or
jog-to-clear functions are run. The signal is meant to be processed by an external device capable of
removing the product as it leaves the System. If an MPD is discovered in the distance leading up to the stop
position of a product (when the System is decelerating to a stop) then the output will fire immediately
preceding the next feed cycle. It does not fire earlier since the product is not technically leaving the System
until the next feed cycle.

APPENDIX
Pin A (+24VF) may be used in the following ways:
As a power source for a sensor. When using a PNP or sourcing sensor, connect the positive terminal
to Pin A (24 Volt), the negative terminal to Pin M (Ground), and the output to Pin B (PSTART). Please
note that since a positive signal voltage is required, only a PNP sensor will work.
As a voltage to supply the PSTART. A relay can be used to create a closed contact between the 24
Volt supply and the PSTART to provide the Feeder with a start signal. Connect one leg of the relay
output to Pin A (24 Volt), and one leg to Pin B (PSTART).
Other. Other uses are not recommended without first consulting Multifeeder Technology.
Pin B (PSTART) is the start signal for the Feeder . A start is equal to 10-30V DC. This signal may be
connected to the 12V or 24V output of a PLC. The Feeder starts when the signal goes from low to high.
Pin C (LOW PROD) is an output that is normally low (0 VDC) and goes high (24 VDC) when a low
product condition has been detected.

Pin D (AUTO ON/OFF) is an output that is normally low (0 VDC) and goes high (24 VDC) when the
Feeder is in the AUTO ON condition.
Pin E (J1-E) is a Configurable output that is 24 VDC.
Pin F (CC) is the Cycle Complete signal. This signal is very useful in intermittent motion applications, as
it can be used to determine the current status of the Feeder . The host machine can provide a start signal
to the Feeder and wait for the Cycle Complete signal to go to 0V DC (low) before indexing. If a fault
occurs, the host machine will not index until the fault has been cleared and the signal is low. The Cycle
Complete signal behaves in the following way:
When the Feeder is in a ready condition but not feeding, the Cycle Complete signal is low (0V DC).
When the Feeder is busy and/or in a fault condition, the Cycle Complete signal is high (24V DC).
• If the Feeder is in the Auto Off condition, the Cycle Complete signal is high (24V DC). The Cycle
Complete signal may be inverted by selecting Option 3 in Menu 4 (Interface Signal Menu). See
Section for more information.
Pin G (C3) is the Status Select signal. This signal is used by the Feeder to determine the status of the
Automatic Product Loader or Automatic Drop Table, if present. Do not connect anything to this signal at
any time.
Pin H (R) is the Red, or Fault signal and acts in the following way:
When the Feeder is in a green condition (Ready), the signal is low (0V DC). When the Feeder is in a
red condition (Feeder Fault or Not Ready), the signal is high (24V DC).
Pin J (RDY) is the Ready signal and acts in the following way:
High unless either MPD I/O Ready or Jam I/O Ready feature are enabled and either an MPD or Jam
occurs (depending on which is enabled), it then goes low until next feed cycle is started.
Pin K (APL) is the APL Enable/Disable signal and is used to enable or disable the Automatic Product
Loader or Drop Table, if present. The signal acts in the following way:
When the Feeder is in a green condition (Ready), the signal is high.
When the Feeder is in a red condition (Feeder Fault or Not Ready), the signal is low.
Pin L (DD Status) is the APL Status signal. This signal is used to communicate the status of the
Automatic Product Loader or Automatic Drop Table, if present, back to the Feeder . Status readings
include Present, Not Present, Ready, and Not Ready.
Pin M, N and O (Ground) is the reference for all of the above signals. When connecting any of the above
signals, Pins M, N and O (Ground) must also be connected to the host machine ground.

APPENDIX
Jack 2 APL Interface
Jack 2, the APL Interface connector, is located on the Feeder Rear PCB (70483-02). This connector is

Pin 2 (APL) is the APL Enable/Disable signal. It enables or disables the Automatic Product Loader or
Drop Table, if present. The signal acts in the following way:
When the Feeder is in a green condition (Ready), the signal is high (24V DC).
When the Feeder is in a red condition (Feeder Fault or Not Ready), the signal is low (0V DC).
Pin 3 (APL Status) is the APL Status signal. This signal communicates the status of the Automatic
Product Loader or Drop Table, if present, to the Feeder .
Pin 4 (Ground) is the reference for all of the above signals. When connecting any of the above signals,
Pin 4 must also be connected to the host machine ground
Pin 5. (APL Present Ground) is the APL Status Ground signal and is used by the Feeder as a reference
to the APL Status signal.
Pin 6 (24V Input from Feeder) is utilized by the APL to determine the status.
Pin 7 (24V APL) is the APL 24 Volt supply. It can be jumpered to Pins 2 and 6 to run the APL alone
without a Feeder present.

Troubleshooting
This section of the manual provides basic troubleshooting information. The information isolates and
resolves common problems that may occur when operating the MFT Friction Feeder. Attempt only one
remedy at a time and return the setting to its original position if the remedy is not effective. For maximum
effectiveness, it is also recommended several slight adjustments are made, rather than one large
adjustment.
If you are unable to identify or resolve the problem, or if you suspect a machine malfunction, call
Multifeeder Technology at (651) 407-3100 Monday - Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. (CST). Please be near your
MFT Friction Feeder when you call.
The first troubleshooting table outlines some of the basic mechanical troubleshooting methods that can
solve common feeding problems. Figures 6-1 and 6-2 may be used as references for the terminology
used in this section.

APPENDIX
Bearing Maintenance
In addition to the prescribed preventive maintenance schedule, it is very important to monitor the
condition of the bearings in the machine. Although the life spans of the bearings are designed to outlast
the machine itself, certain environmental factors (excessive dirt, debris, and high temperatures) may
decrease the life of the bearings. By following the maintenance regiment prescribed above, most of the
potential bearing hazards will be avoided.
If proper attention is given to the bearings, any problems that arise may be addressed and resolved
before failure and costly downtime occur. There are many advanced systems and instruments available
for monitoring bearings. However, by simply listening, feeling, and visually inspecting the bearings you
will become aware of any problems that may arise.
ListenWhen bearings are in good operating condition they make little or no noise while the machine is running.
Any grinding, squeaking, loud, intermittent, or irregular noises are signs of bearing trouble. Unfortunately,
many times when bearing damage is audible by the human ear severe damage has already occurred. A
more accurate method of detecting bearing damage is to use an electronic stethoscope.
When bearing damage is detected, you should stop the machine immediately. If possible, isolate the
malfunctioning bearing and examine it for insufficient lubrication and/or particles imbedded in the
lubrication. Call Multifeeder Technology for information on replacement bearings.
FeelA rise in temperature is another sign of bearing trouble. Fortunately, many times overheating is a result
of a lubrication problem - something that can easily be corrected. However, running the machine for an
extended time with bearing temperatures above 125oC will reduce the life of the bearing.
When a temperature rise is detected, you should stop the machine immediately. If possible, isolate the
overheated bearing and examine it for insufficient/excess lubrication. Call Multifeeder Technology for
information on replacement bearings. You should note that a natural rise in temperature will occur for
one or two days immediately following lubrication and re-lubrication.
LookIt is advisable that you periodically check the outer surfaces of the bearings for unusual wear and
leakage. You should also check the conditions of the seals. If you notice a lubrication leak you should
stop the machine immediately. If possible, identify the location of the leak. Call Multifeeder Technology
for information on replacement bearings.
NOTE! During initial break in of the machine, excess grease and/or oil may sweat from sealed bearings.

submission of a Proposal to Buyer, and in sufficient quantities to (a) evaluate Product Samples for consistency
in structure and form, and (b) design the System Specifications to process the Product Samples provided. The
projected System performance, as presented in the Proposal, is valid only for Product Samples provided to
Seller prior to the date of the Proposal.
Buyer must also supply to Seller actual Product Samples to the same specification as those provided prior to
the MFT Proposal, so that MFT may conduct Acceptance Testing of the System, as set forth above in
paragraphs 6.1.1-6.1.2. MFT will estimate and advise Buyer of the quantity of Product Samples MFT requires.
If not otherwise specified by MFT, MFT requires a stack of each Product Sample, approximately 25 inches high,
for testing any System that is composed of feeders. If automatic product loaders are to be tested, a minimum of
5,000 samples are required. Product Samples should be shipped at Buyer’s cost to Seller no later than ten (10)
days after Seller’s acceptance of Buyer’s Order. Product Samples will not be returned. Seller does not
guarantee feeding performance of any specific product unless an exact Product Sample has been tested before

wishes to have repaired under warranty shall be accompanied by a MFT issued Returned Material Authorization
(RMA) and must be sent to Multifeeder at Buyer’s expense. A service fee of $500.00 will be charged for
products sent to Seller for warranty repair, which are found to comply with the Specifications. Seller reserves
the right to suspend any and all warranties if the Buyer has a delinquent account.
The System and Accessory Products are sensitive. To qualify for the warranty set forth in this Agreement, the
System and Accessory Products warranted must be repaired by knowledgeable and specially trained MFT
personnel only. Accordingly, warranty coverage will be void in its entirety upon any sign or evidence of (a)
opening the System or field service conducted by individuals other than Seller’s authorized personnel, (b)
tampering or any kind of misuse of the System including Buyer’s use of belts, Stripper Wheels or other parts
not supplied by Seller, or (c) abuse of the System or Accessory Products. Non-warranty work will be completed
according to Seller’s standard rates and charges in effect at the time.
