Anyone out there with any experience of mailing machines? To be specific a Neopost SI60 The most unreliable heap of carp I have ever come across in life (even worse tham a Citroen BX :thumbdwn: )

Despite about 4 engineers visits, it still jams about every tenth letter at the stage of insertion to the envelope. The latest excuse is that we're not using Neopost envelopes :confused:

Well, the envelopes we're using worked OK for the post 6 months.

Any hints/tips/ ideas?

Bfh

Have you tried anti-static spray? It might help.

Good idea. I'll try that. We use it to make the filled envelopes drop off the exit rollers square so they stack up tidily.

Bits kept falling off or breaking with monotonous regularity

Culminating with it dumping all its hydraulic fluid on to the road through a faulty rear suspension unit 30 miles from nowhere

Hence no suspension, brakes, steering :eek: :eek: :eek:

Mind you, when it went it went well - a TZD 1.7 turbo-diesel. 90 bhp from a fairly old-tech 1.7 wasn't bad for the mid 80's

That sounds familiar - on our way back from seeing AC/DC at the NEC in 1990
