GETTING STARTED
2.
2.1 Powering Up
Ensure the hopper and stacker are empty. Then, attach power cable to rear of the
machine, plug into a three-prong outlet and turn the power switch, located on the rear
of the machine, to the on position.
The unit will load and conduct a self-checking. The screen will display “0” when the
unit is ready to operate.
2.2 Loading the Hopper
In order to avoid jams and ensure proper operating speed of the machine, it is
important to correctly load the hopper. Bills should be placed in a neat stack prior to
being placed into the hopper.
Avoid counting bills that are wet, excessively dirty, spoiled, folded, curled or with
foreign material like clips, bands, etc. Bills such as these can cause the machine
to malfunction.
Adjust the hopper bill guides to a size slightly wider (0.10’’ on each side) than the width
of the bills in the stack (all US dollar denomination are the same size). This will help to
correctly place the bills in the hopper, and will ensue smooth bill feeding.
WARNING: Hazardous moving parts!
Donotplacengers,hair,clothes,etc.nearthemovingparts.

TIPS: To Reduce Rejects

wrinkled, damaged or folded. Square the
bill stack.
