3.

Adjust the CF-10 to the initial test components:
a.

Manually index the first component to the CF-10's first die station.

b.

Make fine adjustments to the first die station to attain proper processing height.

c.

Repeat the indexing and fine adjustment steps for die stations 2 and 3.

CAUTION: 

To achieve optimum production while avoiding possible damage to the equipment

requires the operator to properly adjust delay times and operating speeds both in relation to each
other and to component dimensions and properties.

4.

Automatically feed components into the CF-10 and adjust the optional vibratory bowl:
a.

Set the CF-10 to a low speed.  Components will feed until they reach the shuttle and then fill the
track.  Wait for the track to completely fill with components.

b.

Fine tune the vibratory bowl feed rate to maintain, as close as possible, a near-full track without
the bowl constantly starting and stopping.

c.

Close the safety shield and press the CF-10's restart button.

5.

To run the last components in a job:
a.

Wait until the last few components reach the LOW TRACK sensor.

b.

Turn off the vibratory bowl

c.

Flip both SINGLE FEED and BOWL FEED switches to their CF-10 position.  The last
components finish processing.

Single Feed Selection

To operate the CF-10 with the Single Feed Selection option:

1.

Setup the CF-10:
a.

Install the CF-10 shuttle.

b.

Adjust shuttle and track heights.

c.

Make course die adjustments.

2.

Prepare to feed components to the CF-10:
a.

Make sure the Single Feed Selection switch is in the SINGLE FEED position and the Vibratory
Bowl Selection switch is in the CF-10 position.

b.

Remove the CF-10's top guide.

c.

Close the safety shield and press the CF-10's restart button.

3.

Process components:
a.

Using proper tooling, insert components into the guide shuttle.

b.

Depress the foot switch and do not release until cycle is complete.  One component cycle is
activated and component exits normally.

NOTE: 

Hold foot switch down until cycle is completed.  Machine stops immediately when foot switch

is released.  If released prior to cycle completion, improper forming or damage to the component may
result.

c.

Release foot switch.  Machine resets for next cycle.  Repeat step 3 as often as necessary to
process components.
