How to replace the roller drive belt and the feeder drive belt on the MBO T-49 right angle folder. Thought I should do this before they fail during a folding job. Hope it helps someone out.
I saved this video in case I am ever tasked with changing the belt on our T49. I was searching for the proper way to adjust the roller pressure. I normally operate a newer folder with automatic adjustment, not manual. The book description sucks.

В нью-йорке? Почем в продаете 1 визитку на картоне? Мне интересно, потому что у нас в России цены в евро и долларах на бумагу и расходные материалы, а продаем мы визитки, книги и журналы совсем дешево. Ответьте пожалуйста мне))
We were folding 120,000 door hangers last election cycle and our belts were in worse shape than yours. We thankfully made the deadline before replacing them. We replaced the folding roller belt, but had service do the feeder belt. They scared us saying there was a timing wheel back at the feeder that was delicate and very expensive. After watching your video, I have the confidence to tackle it next time.
Wow, thats a lot of folding! Yes, I feel service guys want to keep themselves employed so fear is often used to keep capable people of tacking these things. I don't blame them though, there are people that shouldn't be taking equipment apart. :)
Hi Dan, love your videos. You got us thinking about getting a Konica Minolta printer. There is a c6000 for sale locally with 1.7 million clicks, with PF-602 Paper Feed Unit , High Capacity paper trays , FS-612 Booklet Finisher and Stapler, 3-Hole Punch. What do you think is a good price to negotiate to? It has been under service contract and is in good working order.
Awesome! I've seen them sell for less than $1000 but I think maybe $3,000-4,000 for that might be good depending on how work out the consumables are. To replace all drums, dev, wires will cost $1200, keep that in mind.
Tricky to know without watching it run. Make sure the speeds are fast enough to force the paper against the registration rail. The paper is probably hitting something.
You turn the dial on each roller to change the roller gap. You then go roller by roller with a piece of paper and set the roller so it just holds the paper.
I'm the only one. Most jobs come ready to print. So there is little prepress work. Word of mouth and treating people right keeps my customer base steadily growing.
@@justaprinter similar to myself, I was using a 3070xl for the last 2 year's on my own, unfortunately it closed the week before the Irish lockdown. Have you tried printing on synthetics? Kernow or Synaps? They run really well through the konicas and are ideal for Covid posters as they are 100% Waterproof with no need for lamination.
