1.0 KIT INSTALLATION
Note:
This Feature is applicable only on Folders with
the DCT500 Controller Installed.
CAUTION
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD PRESENT.
THIS KIT SHOULD ONLY BE INSTALLED
BY QUALFIED PERSONNEL.
Remove electrical power from the folder at the main
circuit breaker panel. This will ensure that the installer
will not come into contact with the main power leads at
the folder disconnect switch.
If the kicker device is not assembled to the bracket, do so
with the supplied hardware per drawing TP220-889-02-00
of this manual.
Install the assembled kicker device(Figure 1-1) on the
square slitter shaft accessory spreader bar(Figure 1-2).
The location of the kicker unit is dependent on the type
and size of fold that is being made.
Figure 2
After locating the kicker unit, plug the connector into the
1X12 connector located on the side of the main control
panel.
Open the door of the main control panel and find the DIN
rail located in the upper left hand corner above the blue
power transformer. Remove the hardware that attaches
the rail to the box and rotate the rail 90 degrees(Figure 3-
1).
Figure 1
The location of the kicker unit, along the tie bar, is set so
that the striker plate(Figure 2-1) of the plunger is
approximately 1/8 from the right edge of the
stock(Figure 2-2) as it exits the slitter assembly pullout
tires(Figure 2-3).

Install the kicker module, A20(Figure 4-1), on the DIN rail
in the upper left corner of the main electrical enclosure, as
shown. Place the two cable tie anchors in the approximate location show in Figure 4-2.
Remove the protective plexiglass cover(Figure 5-1) that
covers the main circuit board. Also remove the two
wireway covers(Figure 5-2).
Install the wires from the kicker module, A20, per the
wiring instructions of Figure 6. After installation of wires,
replace plexiglass cover and two wireway covers. Cable
tie wire bundle to anchors and cable tie the rest of new
wiring to existing wires.
Close main electrical enclosure and reapply power to the
folder.
