ADJUSTMENTS
The RSA 3036-SB comes fully adjusted from the factory with the exception of overfilled
box feature. However, air pressure may require fine tuning for the rest of adjustments.
Balancing the Top Tape Head Box
When the machine is in Automatic and running with no carton introduced, the Top Tape
Head Box should remain stationary. If it floats up or down the balance regulator (Figure
16) needs to be adjusted. Increase the pressure to stop the ascent of the Top Tape Head
Box. Reduce the pressure to stop the descent of the Top Tape Head Box.
Speed of descent of Top Tape Head Box
If the Top Tape Head Box lowers on the boxes too quickly, the flow controls at the
bottom of the side cylinders need adjustment (Figure 19). Using a flat head screwdriver,
turn clockwise to slow the descent and counter-clockwise for a faster descent. Both
cylinders should be adjusted the same amount and should be done 1/8 of a turn at the
time.
