WARNING – USE CARE WHEN
WORKING ON BUFFING ROLLER
ASSEMBLY AS SPRING IS UNDER TENSION.
IF CARE IS NOT TAKEN PERSONNEL
INJURY COULD RESULT.
The buffing roller spring controls the buffing roller
pressure on the box and returns the assembly to the
reset position. The spring tension is pre-set with the
spring end loop in slot “C” for normal operation but is
adjustable.
Should a tape loop appear on the trailing tape leg
application, buffing roller pressure can be increased.
With the buffing roller assembly in reset position,
remove the spring end loop from slot “C” and place
the loop in slot “B” or “A” to increase the spring
tension. (Slot "A" will provide the greatest buffing
roller pressure.)
Should lower buffing forces be required, remove the
spring end loop from slot “C” and place in hole “D”,
“E” or “F” to lower the spring tension. (Hole "F" will
provide the least buffing roller pressure.)
