Pneumatic Clutch/Brake Roller
Alignment
The function of the padded clutch rollers is to
grasp the corners of the flatwork for pick up by
the transfer clamp.
The padded clutch rollers located at the top
of the inlet conveyor must be aligned parallel to
each other for consistent clutching.
It is very important that the space between the
rollers is even for consistent corner clutching.
Required Tools
7/16”, 1/2”, 9/16” wrenches, 3/16”

On the bottom of this unit is the main
solenoid valve. Locate the override screw
on this valve (Figure 7-9).
Use a small screwdriver to push in the
lockout screw and turn it 1/4 turn clock-
wise to lock it in the “in” position. This
allows compressed air to flow to the
clutch/brake rollers.
Locate the adjustment bolt/retaining nut on
the inlet bracket (Figure 7-10, A). Loosen
the three surrounding bracket bolts (B).
Insert the Allen key in the adjustment bolt
and then loosen the retaining nut.
