Installation Instructions
1. Before positioning the feeder on the inserter, follow the setup and
operating instructions completely. When you are confident the material
is feeding consistently, precede to the inserter preparation instructions
then the installation and set-up procedure.
2. Remove the rear guide from the inserter pocket.
3. Remove the bottom plate.
4. Remove the suction cup and loosen the separator feet, sliding them back and
to the furthest point sideways so as not to interfere with the path of the piece
to be inserted.
5. Cycle the inserter to the point where the gripper jaw is at the furthest point
forward in the stroke.
6. Bend the material guide tabs so that they align just above the surface of the
bottom gripper jaw.
7. Adjust the 3-leg sensor arm to position the sensor 1/2” above the paper path
and about 3/4 of the length of the piece ahead of the feeder.
8. Place 10 pieces in the feeder and turn the speed adjustment to the minimum
setting (counter-clockwise).
9. Plug the feeder into a 110 VAC grounded outlet.
10. Turn the power switch on.
11. By turning the speed control switch clockwise, advance the first piece until the
sensor is blocked and the feeder stops. If the sensor is not positioned
properly, the feeder will not stop. Adjust the height and angle of the sensor
until the feeder stops.

Installation Instructions Cont’
12. Position the feeder on the inserter table so that the edge of the leading piece
is between the material guide tabs and the bottom of the front hopper plate.
13. Adjust the sensor so that the piece advances out further and is well within the
gripper jaw opening.
14. With the speed control set to minimum, jog the inserter to remove the piece
staged in the gripper jaw and return the gripper jaw to the furthest inward
position.
15. Turn the speed control up slightly. This should advance the next piece into
the gripper jaw. Adjust the sensor, material guide tabs and position the SE
900 EI as needed to align the paper path into the gripper jaw.
16. Load the SE 900 EI with at least a full handful of material and cycle the
inserter.
17. Notice the material path and the presentation to the gripper jaw as this is
most important as the cycle speed is increased.
18. Cycle the inserter at full production speed adjusting the SE 900 EI speed so
that the piece being presented to the gripper jaw is there well ahead of the
end of the forward stroke.

Set-up Instructions
1. With the feeder ON/OFF switch in the off position, loosen the two side guides
and move them all the way to the sides of the feeder. Then loosen the rear
guide ramp and move it all the way back out of the way.
2. Place a single piece of the material to be fed on the feeder centering the
material relative to the separating device.
3. Move each side guide in to meet the material and then back them off about
1/16”.
4. Tighten the bottom thumbscrews on each side guide.
5. Turn the separator knob clockwise until you can easily pass the single piece
of material under the separator. While moving the material back and forth
under the separator, turn the separator knob counter-clockwise until you feel
resistance from the separator. At this point, you have roughed in the
separator setting and will need to tune it in after the completion of the
following set-up steps. If the resistance under one separating wheel is not the
same as under the separating wheel, the bridge needs to be trammed.
Perform step 10 before proceeding with step 6.
6. Place a handful of material in the feeder allowing the material to shingle
forward into the separator.
7. Move the back guide forward so as to use the back guide wedge shape to
support the back edge of the material stack. At this point, you have roughed
in the back guide setting and will need to tune it in later.
8. Add enough material to the stack to fill about half the height of the side
guides.
9. Move the top of each side guide out slightly so as to create a funnel effect
and then tighten the top thumbscrews on each side guide. You are now ready
to feed some material.

Section 2

10. BRIDGE TRAM PROCEDURE: It is critical to the performance of the feeder
to have the separating wheels level with respect to the nip rollers. To do this,
first loosen the bridge mounting screws (Item 10, Fig. 6-3) on both sides of
the bridge. Turn the separator adjustment CW several turns so that the bridge
can be lowered all the way to the bottom of the slots. Tighten one screw on
each side. Now place a thin strip of paper under each separating wheel (it is
best to cut one piece of paper into two strips to ensure that the strips are the
same thickness). Now turn the separator adjustment CCW until the
separating wheels just contact the nip rollers. Move the paper strips to feel if
the resistance is equal under each separating wheel. If one moves with less
resistance than the other, loosen the screw on the side that is tighter and
raise that side of the bridge slightly and tighten screw. Check the resistance
under each separating wheel with the paper strips again and adjust
accordingly. Once the resistance is equal under each separating wheel
tighten the bridge screws securely. Proceed to step 6 for further setup
instructions. This procedure must be followed whenever the bridge is adjusted
up or down for materials with different thickness. This adjustment is “very”
critical when feeding thin materials.

Operation Instructions
1. Adjust the 3-leg sensor arm to position the sensor 1/2” above the paper path
and about 3/4 of the length of the piece ahead of the feeder.
2. With the power still off, turn the speed control counter-clockwise to the
minimum position.
3. Turn the power switch on and turn the speed control switch clockwise, the
first piece will advance until the sensor is blocked and the feeder stops. If the
sensor is not positioned properly, the feeder will not stop. Adjust the height
and angle of the sensor until the feeder stops.
4. Cycle the feeder by removing the piece that block the sensor. Observe the
consistency in which the material is feeding.
5. By turning the separator knob slightly in either direction, you will change the
way the material is separating.
6. By moving the back guide in and out, you will quickly find the position, which
creates the most consistent separation.
7. One important item to note; There is no substitution for experience. By
working with the SE 900 EI, you will notice that the combination of separator
setting and the back guide adjustment together will have the greatest effect
on separation. Generally, the longer the piece of material, the flatter the
material stack should be. Conversely, the shorter the piece of material, the
closer the back guide adjustment should be to the material, adding wedge to
the material stack. You will also notice that by moving the back guide forward
(increasing the wedge), you can open the separator and still achieve good
separation.

Section 4

Sure-Feed Engineering Inc.
Cleaning Instructions
Clean rollers and belts are very important to the performance of the feeder. Use
a clean rag dampened with Isopropyl Rubbing alcohol, 70% by volume (typically
available in drug stores) to clean belts and rollers. Do not use any other solvents,
cleaners, or abrasive cleaners on the rollers or belts as they may damage the
rubber.

Warning: Isopropyl rubbing alcohol is very flammable! Always unplug
the machine before cleaning belts and rollers. DO NOT! Use near an open
flame, sparks, or any other source of ignition. DO NOT! Smoke in the
vicinity of the alcohol fumes. Allow used rags to air-dry before throwing
them in the trash. Dispose of used rags properly.
Other areas of the machine should be wiped clean with a clean dry rag.

Troubleshooting Guide

Problem

Solution

Feeder will not run.

Check circuit breaker condition.
Check outlet power source.
Check power switch.

Feeder runs but no material is being
dispensed.

Check material supply.
Remove all material and follow setup
procedure.
Check rollers and belts for excessive
wear or dirt.

Feeder does not create a gap
between pieces.

Lower separator adjustment and
observe. If a gap is not present after this
adjustment, return separator to original
position and move the back guide
forward.

Feeder does not detect material.

Adjust the position of the sensor.

Thick material does not feed well.

Decrease the height at the back of the
material stack.
Increase the opening at the separation
device (the thicker the material the less
critical the setting is).

Troubleshooting Guide Cont.

Problem

Solution

Thin material does not feed.

Adjust separation device as described in
section 2.
Remove material and fan the stack
allowing air to separate the pieces.
Raise the rear of the material stack by
moving the wedge forward.

Material feeds double.

After confirming set up is correct,
remove the separator and inspect the orings. If the o-rings are worn past the
depth of the groove in the separating
wheel, they will not be effective. Rotate
the o-ring in the groove until a new
section of o-ring is in position to contact
the material. Reinstall the separator and
reset the gap.
