7. Jamming
Facing a jamming event
To ensure that the equipment operates with optimal performance as well as to
prevent jamming, avoid the following:
-
Counting bent or damaged coins or tokens
-
Counting any type of foreign object like clips, staples, paper, nylon,
rubber bands, etc.
If any jamming occurs, the equipment will stop counting and will move the
turning plate in reverse to remove the coin or object jammed inside the
mechanism. If the equipment was not able to remove the jammed object by
itself, proceed as follows:
1.
Carefully take out the
adjustment knob cover
2.
Pull up the conveyor belt
mechanism as shown in Fig
ures
A and B
3.
Inspect the coin’s track and
remove the jammed object
4.
Return the conveyor belt
mechanism to its proper
position
5.
Replace the adjustment knob
