• Disconnect electric power to the tumbler before servicing.
• Close gas shut-off valve to gas tumbler before servicing.

• Whenever ground wires are removed during servicing, these ground wires must be
reconnected to ensure that the tumbler is properly grounded.

100. CYLINDER CLEARANCE
Clearance between cylinder rim and front panel
must be adjusted so cylinder is centered within
front panel opening when the cylinder is fully
loaded and turning. However, adjustment should
be made when cylinder is empty.
NOTE: If cylinder is not properly adjusted,
cylinder rim will rub against the front panel.
a. Open loading door and check gap between
center of the front panel top flange and cylinder
rim. Proper adjustment is when gap is 7/16 inch
(11 mm). Refer to Figure 54.
b. Remove drive guard.
c. Loosen four trunnion housing bolts.
d. Loosen locknuts on trunnion housing adjusting
bolts.
e. Turn adjusting bolts in or out as necessary to
obtain proper clearance between cylinder rim
and front panel.
NOTE: Turning adjusting bolts clockwise will raise
cylinder and turning them counter-clockwise will
lower cylinder. Turn both bolts evenly to adjust top
and bottom clearance. Turn one or the other
adjusting bolt in or out to adjust side clearance.
f. After cylinder is properly adjusted, tighten
adjusting bolt locknuts and four trunnion
housing bolts.
g. Install the drive guard removed in step “b.”
NOTE: If adjusting the trunnion housing fails to
correct clearance, the problem is probably due to a
worn trunnion shaft or defective bearings.
