Hello,
I have never completely solved my feeding problem with my 341P, but may have stumbled upon the problem tonight, and am open to suggestions.
It appears that the carrier is not lifting high enough (by about 1/32"), and manually pulling it up solves the feeding problem. When the bolt is pulled back, a knob on the bottom of the bolt is supposed to hit the rear of the carrier, and lever the front up. At this point, i can see 1/32" of clearance, and my bolt has a LOT of play when pulled back this far.
Question: Is the bolt supposed to be loose when fully rearward? (It locks tight when forward).
If loose is ok, I am pondering adding some metal to the carrier to take up the 1/32" gap.
