2. Fill the cleaned glue pot with suitable adhesive.
3. Connect the power and air supply, and verify the air pressure is stable.What daily maintenance is required?
Daily maintenance includes:
1. Using an air gun to blow away paper dust from the rollers.
2. Inspecting belts and support rod locks for wear, and replacing any severely deformed parts for folder gluer machine.What should be used to clean a dirty feeder belt?
Never use highly corrosive solvents.
While the machine is stopped, use clean water or a dedicated belt cleaner,
and gently wipe the feeder belt with a slightly damp cloth.How to maintain the glue pot?
To maintain the glue pot:
1. Regularly spray lubricant on roller surfaces.
2. Remove glue buildup.
3. Apply grease to oil holes.
4. Blow the tank dry and apply anti-rust lubricant after cleaning.Which standard parts on a folder gluer are considered wear parts?
Frequently adjusted locking collars are considered consumable folder gluer machine parts.
Examples include feeder support rod collars, final folding hold-down roller collars,
and delivery section receiving wheel collars.Is belt replacement difficult? Can our own operator handle it?
It’s very straightforward.
Our machines are designed for user-friendly maintenance.
Operators can generally replace belts independently, and we provide real-time video guidance if needed.How should the machine be preserved if it will be out of service for an extended period?

and cover the equipment with a dust sheet.
The machine stops suddenly during normal operation, and the alarm buzzer does not sound. What is the reason?
1. Check the alarm screen on the HMI.
2. Open the control cabinet to see if the inverter displays a fault code.
3. Disconnect the power, wait 30 seconds, and restart.What is the reason for a certain section of belt not running?
1. Check if the pulley is rotating. If it turns but the belt doesn’t, the belt is slipping—tighten it appropriately.
2. Check if the timing belt is broken and requires replacement with new folder gluer spare parts.The feeder section fails to run and feed sheets. How to troubleshoot?
1. Check the feeder inverter for fault codes.
2. Power off and manually turn the feeder belt to ensure it rotates freely.
3. Verify the paper feeding settings on the control panel.Motor trips immediately upon startup. What is the reason?
1. Verify motor insulation is intact.
2. Check for phase wires shorted to ground.
3. Inspect cable insulation for damage. 4. Reduce the starting load.Inaccurate counting, irregular automatic stops. How to troubleshoot?
1. Inspect the proximity switch.
2. Ensure signal cable shielding is intact.
3. Check for loose wiring connections.
4. Replace the damaged sensor if necessary.Automatic glue refill is not working properly — overfills frequently or does not refill at all. How to resolve?
1. Check the photoelectric sensor on the glue pot.
2. Clean the sensor’s bottom surface.
3. Adjust the sensing range (5–8 cm).
