Repair Edge MAXX
7-14
Locate the two adjustment bolts on the
rear of the bearing.
Loosen the jam nut (Figure 7-16, A).
CAUTION
ONLY increase the tension
to eliminate play on the
carriage. Too much tension
will overload the motor and
increase wear on the bearing.
Adjust the bolt clockwise (Figure 7-16,
B) just enough to take up any excess free
play in the bearing.
Tighten the jam nut to secure the adjust-
ment.
Repeat Steps 4 to 6 for the second jam
nut.
Start the unit and feed several pieces to
check and verify the adjustment.
Readjust as necessary.
Replace the adjustment wrenches in their
cloth bag in the right endframe.

Transfer Clamp Grooved Bearing
Replacement
These bearings often wear down in pairs, either
both regular or both eccentric. Even if only one
grooved bearing shows signs of excessive wear,
replacement still should be done in pairs.
NOTE: This procedure is best
performed by two workers. The
“buddy system” is the safest
system.
Required Tools
5 mm, 13 mm wrenches (supplied)
Perform only when the unit is OFF
with power disconnected.
Turn the power OFF at the main discon-
nect switch.
Retrieve the two adjustment wrenches
from the small cloth bag in the right
endframe.
Have one worker support the rodless air
cylinder/carriage assembly (Figure 7-17,
A).
