Applying/Buffi ng Roller Replacement
Replacing roller requires removal of shaft and
mounting screws. With no area on the shaft to grip,
the shaft often turns when attempting to remove the
second screw.
To ease removal of second screw, a 5mm hex
socket has been provided at the bottom of the
threads in both ends of the shaft. Insert a 5mm
hex key wrench into this socket after removing one
screw to hold the shaft for removal of the second
screw.
See Figure 4-2.
Cleaning
Regular slotted containers produce a great deal
of dust and paper chips when conveyed through
taping heads. If this dust is allowed to build-up
on the heads, it can cause wear on the moving
parts. Excessive dirt build-up should be wiped
off with a damp cloth. Cleaning should be done
once per month,
depending on the number and
type of boxes used. If the boxes used are dirty, or
if the environment in which the heads operate is
dusty, cleaning on a more frequent basis may be
necessary.
Note
– Never attempt to remove dirt from taping
heads by blowing it out with compressed air. This
can cause the dirt to be blown inside the
components onto sliding surfaces. Dirt in these
areas can cause serious equipment damage.
Never wash down or subject taping heads to
conditions causing moisture condensation on
components. Serious equipment damage could
result.
