• Remove the motor connector and the sensor connector.
• Remove the cutting disc assembly mounting screw and then remove
the cutting disc assembly.

7.4 Replacing the Rail Assembly
Turn off the power switch before performing check and
adjustment work.
Eject all working screws from within the feeder before
proceeding with replacement work.
The rail assembly in this feeder is easy to replace. The rail should
require replacement if its rail groove is soiled or flawed to impair its
successful use.
W hen using screws of different nominal diameters, replace the passage
pates for both the rail assembly and the cutting disc assembly.
The rail assembly can be removed after the cutting disc assembly has
been removed.
• Loosen the rail longitudinal position setscrew and pull out the rail
assembly to front.
• At reassembly, it is necessary to make positional adjustments with the
tip of the rail and the cutting disc.
• Align the groove rail and the groove in the cutting disc with each other.
• Mount the cutting disc assembly to keep the top surface of the groove
in the cutting disc lower than the top surface of the rail groove.
• Turn on the feeder and then make adjustments with the longitudinal
position of the rail so its tip will not hit the cutting disc when the rail
vibrates.
