Abstract: An improved deleaver for a continuous business forms assembly for separating the stationery plies and interleaved carbon plies from each other. The invention features a unique carbon turning bar assembly whereby the same is permanently affixed to the machine and yet may be moved between operative and inoperative positions, the latter being used when continuous business forms assemblies not having interleaved carbon are being processed. Also featured is a door in the wall of the first chute which may be selectively opened or closed. When extremely large forms are being processed such that they cannot rest generally parallel to the bottom of the first chute, the door may be opened to allow efficient processing.
