HEIGHT OF CUT (FIG.4 & 5)
TO ADJUST HAND WHEEL TYPE:
1. Turn the adjuster handwheel or nut (A Fig.4) situated
on handwheel clockwise (+) to increase the height of
cut, or anticlockwise (-) to decrease the height of cut.
2. Ensure that an equal amount of adjustment is made
to both adjusters on all the cutting units. To assist in
obtaining equal adjustment height of cut indicators (B
Fig.2) are provided at each end of the roll assembly.
NOTE: The numbers 1 to 9 are only for reference from
one side of the roll to the other and bear no relation to
the height of cut other than each graduation gives
approximately 6.25mm (1/4in) height of cut movement
for fixed head units and 3.75mm (5/32in) for floating
head units. These indicators are set at the factory and
when the pointer is set the same at each end of the roll
the roll will be parallel with the bottom blade. If due to
any reason the roll and bottom blade are not parallel
with each other the roll can be set parallel with the
bottom blade by rotating one of the handwheels and
then one indicator adjusted by slackening the small
clamping screw in the centre of the indicator plate and
positioning the indicator relative to the pointer at the
opposite end of the roll assembly.
3. No other adjustments are necessary.
4. THIS IS A SELF LOCKING MECHANISM THERE
BEING NO NECESSITY TO UNLOCK OR LOCK THE
MECHANISM.
TO ADJUST SPANNER TYPE:
1)
Release the two screws (78 Fig.5) which hold
the eccentric bush in the lever.
2)
Turn the adjuster (83 Fig.5) at the rear of the unit,
clockwise to reduce the height of cut, or
anticlockwise to increase the height of cut.
3)
After adjusting securely tighten screws
(78 Fig.5).
