Cutting head stroke
During the cutting cycle the cutting head stroke is limited by the HUL (Head
Upstroke Limit) and HDL (Head Downstroke Limit), set electronically on the
control panel, as described on Page 5. The cutting head has a mechanical limiting
switch that determines its downstroke:
"
To change this setting, two hexagonal spanners must be used, one to keep the
nut in position, and the other to tighten and loosen the stop screw.
If the machine is equipped with the Cut Control System (CCS), regulation of
the HDL is done as follows.
"
The CCS has an electrical limiter, functioning as HDL, located on the back of
the machine; according to the type of work cycle to be carried out, the dis-
tance of the limiter from the striker can be regulated by adjusting the support
plate screws.
