you will need to adjust the position of the stroke
adjusting collars to restore the notcher's proper
range of travel.
Three collars and limit switches control the travel
limits of the shearing and notching stations. This
photo shows the factory set positions for the three
collars.
To adjust the travel of the notcher:
1.
Press the Emergency Stop pushbutton.
2.
Adjust each collar to achieve the proper
range of notch travel:
Left Collar (A):
This collar controls the
downward travel limit of the notching slide. This
collar should always be positioned fully right,
against its stop. Moving this collar away from its
stop prevents the slide from descending
completely and results in incomplete notches.
Middle Collar (B):
This collar controls
the upward travel limit of the notching slide. This
collar is usually set halfway between the two
outer collars (A and C). Moving this collar to the
right decreases the slide's upward travel. Moving
this collar to the left increases the slide's upward
travel.
Right Collar (C):
This collar is typically
positioned fully left, against its stop. This collar
has no effect on the notching station, however, if
this collar is positioned far to the right of its stop
it can limit the notching station's upward travel
limit.
