2.5 Feed Gap Adjustment
Feed gap adjustment is required for the following reasons:
• The counting of new or mint condition notes.
• The counting thin or poor condition notes.
• The counting of average condition notes.
Remove the rear cover to adjust the feed gap on the machine.
Carefully press in both of the green Moveable Plate latches and slowly pull the
assembly back towards you (Fig 1). Care point: You should always support this
assembly as you lower it due to its weight.
Next release the green feed guide clip and the feed guide will pivot down (Fig 2).
Now you can pull the feed gap adjuster nut towards the centre of the machine and
rotate the nut in the required direction (Fig 3). The feed gap number selected
must have the white arrow pointing towards it (Fig 3).
The default setting for the note feed gap is 3.
New or mint notes may require a slightly smaller gap to count than average notes
(i.e. 2 ).
Old notes may require a slightly larger gap than average notes (i.e. 4).
The higher the setting (i.e. 4) the larger the gap.
Adjust, then re-check the feed.
The adjuster nut is graduated with numbers: 1 2 3 4

2.6 Rear Note Path Access
Moveable Plate Release Latches
Remove the rear cover to gain access to the rear note path.
Carefully press in both of the green Moveable Plate latches and slowly pull the
assembly back towards you (Fig 1 and Fig 2). Care point: You should always
support this assembly as you lower it due to its weight.
You now have access to any notes which may have got stuck in the rear transport
path.
If the notes are stuck between the feed rollers and the feed guide, release the
green feed guide clip and the feed guide will pivot down (Fig 3).
After the notes have been removed, re-secure the feed guide with the green clip
and lift and lock the Moveable Plate back into place using the green latches.
Please make sure both latches are secure.

2.7 Front Note Path Access
To gain access to the note path at the front of the machine, un-clip the left and
right hand side latches on the underside of stacker pocket 2 (Fig 1). Now pull the
stacker assembly slowly out towards you. It will rest on top of stacker pocket 1
(Fig 2).
You now have access to the note path, belts, sensors, diverter and rollers (Fig 3).
If you have to remove a note that is stuck behind the diverter, you will also have to
lower the Moveable Plate at the rear of the machine, then hand-wind the belts
backwards and remove the note from the rear.
To return the stacker assembly back into position, carefully lift it up and make
sure you locate the stacker assembly slots onto the two post on each side of the
machine. Then gently push it back in until you hear it click and lock into position
(Fig 2).

2.8 Routine Maintenance (Rear Access)
To gain access to the rear note path for maintenance, first turn the power to the
machine off, and then remove the rear cover.
Carefully press in both of the green Moveable Plate latches and slowly pull the
assembly back towards you (Fig 1 and Fig 2). Care point: You should always
support this assembly as you lower it due to its weight.
You now have access for cleaning the rollers, stripper pads, sensors, illumination/
receiver glass, fitness detector and belts (Fig 2 and Fig 3). To clean, remove all
excess dirt with a soft brush. Clean the rubber feed wheels, separator rollers,
belts and stripper pads with a slightly damp cloth. You may use a small amount of
liquid soap on the cloth. Ensure all soap residue is removed from the rollers. Allow
to dry thoroughly before connecting the machine to the mains electrical supply.
Clean the glass of the illumination and receiver detector with a damp cloth, then
use a dry cloth to finish.
If a magnetic detector is fitted carefully clean the detector head with a small soft
brush. Avoid applying pressure to the detector head, this may damage the head
resulting in loss of performance or an inability to function.
Contact your local Talaris distributor for further information on how to carry out
required operational cleaning.
