ABSTRACT:
Accordion "Z" fold sheets are stacked on end on a tray between a hold-back rod and a follower. A separator assembly is supported from a drive shaft. A first pair of separator rollers are driven by the drive shaft and a second pair of rollers are supported on the separator assembly in tandem with the first pair of rollers. The second pair of rollers rotate simultaneously with and at the same speed as the first pair. A sheet abutting step is positioned below the first pair of rollers and an idler roller is below the second pair. The drive to the separator assembly is controlled by a micro-switch in the feed path below the separator assembly. The tray is provided with adjustable guides and teflon slide pads.
