Left Spreader Clamp Air Pressure
Adjustment
If flatwork is being damaged because the
spreader clamps are gripping too tightly, or if the
clamps are dropping flatwork prematurely, the
problem can be addressed by adjusting the left
spreader clamp air cylinder air pressure.
In addition, adjustments may be required based
on the weight of flatwork being processed.
