09-0158 – Continental Girbau First Cross-Fold Pneumatic Kit

The 09-0158 Pneumatic Kit is a specialized maintenance assembly engineered for the first cross-fold station ("1er Pli Transversal") on Continental Girbau flatwork folders. This section of the machine is responsible for the initial fold perpendicular to the direction of travel, a critical step that determines the final dimensions and neatness of the linen package. The kit contains the specific pneumatic components—such as actuators, seals, or valves—necessary to restore the snap and timing of this high-impact folding blade or air blast system.

By replacing worn pneumatic elements in the first cross-fold section with genuine OEM parts, maintenance teams can eliminate common folding faults like "dog ears," skewing, or missed folds. This kit ensures the folder maintains the rapid response times required to process linens at rated speeds without jamming or misaligning the item before it enters the subsequent folding stations.

Maintenance Tip: After installing this kit, recalibrate the "First Cross-Fold Delay" timing in the machine's PLC to account for the faster response time of the new pneumatic components.
