OPERATION MANUAL
3.3 ALIGNMENT
The Bead Roller usually does not need the operator to adjust the alignment. However, poor
alignment will effect the quality of the metal forming and the ability of the machine to cut
sheet metal.
If you experience either of these problems perform the following alignment steps.
1. Set up the Bead Roller with cutting dies (10#-1, 10#-2) and cutting plate (9#) as shown in
Fig. 5.
2. Inspect the cutting plate (9#) as shown in Fig. 5. When the Bead Roller is aligned correctly,
the edges of the cutting plates should almost be touching. If they are not almost touching
then the following steps need to be taken.

3. Using the hex key wrench supplied (27#) loosen
screws (16#) that secure gear (5#) and collar (6#) to the
driving shaft (3#). (Fig. 6)
4. Slide the driving shaft (3#) until the cutting plates (9#)
are touching.
5. By hand, move collar (6#) on the driving shaft (3#) so
its edge is touching the roll block (2#) and tighten the
screws (16#)
6. Move Gear (5#) so its side is touching the Collar(6#) on
the Driving Shaft(3#) and tighten its Screws(16#). At
all times make sure that the screw is tightened on the
flat on the shaft.
NOTE:
If the edges are touching but the machine does
not cut the material correctly, adjust the roller tension.
See section “Adjusting The Roller Tension” (Page 11)
