Kick back roller

What's the function of Kick back roller in the ink train. It's timing can be varied so how can it set the best way. This with reference to kick back roller, drive in our Komori heatset weboffset press System 35
 
The 'kick back system' reverses the ink duct steel roller every so often to help reduce the effect of debris in the ink in the ink fountain that can effect the ink key profile. I am not sure if it is adjustable but if you were running paper like newsprint I am sure you would encounter more debris than coated paper so there may be an adustment for it somewhere on the press.
