    Hi, I am having troubles feeding on my QM. I have replaced a alot of part in hopes that it would do something different to get me further, but unfortunately not. I cleaned the double sheet sensor, replaced the infeed wheels, took apart the 3/2 valve for the double sheet, and still nothing has changed the problem. I can idle the press but as soon as i turn the blow air and suction on it tries to feed one and immediately jams no matter if it double sheets or not. It won't make it to the delivery side and i also cannot set the double sheet without it saying its jamming. Please please please help me with this, I have spent way too much time on this to just let it sit there any longer.

    THANKS!

    Not sure if it will help but you can try turning SF 19 off(sheet leangth monitoring system) and also the selector switch on the right side of the feeder that has thick and thin paper turn it to the center to turn that off.

    if that doesnt work let me know.

    also is this only happening in production mode when you hit the feed button or does it do the same thing when you do the test feed or single sheet set up?

    does the machine have sheet calibration facility? if it does, then use it to calibrate the sheet.

    what feeder error are you getting?- .[ ] . early sheet'/ -. [ ]. late sheet/ -.[] . short sheet/ or .[ ]. long sheet
    zero out sheet arrival knob by turning in all the way CW, then back out 7 complete turns! At this point see what time your forward wheels lift of the shaft, it should be approx 9.2 - 9.7 degrees! i could continue but really need to know what the jam error is.
