Ê Shell Hanging Dimensions and Adjustment Procedures
To adjust the shell of a divided cylinder machine, proceed as follows:
1. Locate the shell hanging dimension for your machine in the table below and adjust your machine accordingly.
Take measurements on the left and right sides of the shell, to assure that the shell is horizontal, left to right.
2. The shell and cylinder should be level front to back. Check this with a bubble level, as shown in FIGURE 3.
3. If further adjustment is required in order to level the cylinder, make small adjustments at all four corners. For
example, if the cylinder slopes down to the front, try raising the two front corners by 1/16" (2mm) and
lowering the two rear corners by 1/16" (2mm). Always split the difference.
NOTE: Only slight deviations from the dimensions shown should be used to level the shell. If large devia-
tions are required, this may indicate that the frame is out of level. If so, this condition must be corrected
before attempting to level the shell.
Ê Push-Down Travel Dimensions and
Adjustment Procedures
Some of the following procedures require power to the machine. Take the necessary
precautions to assure that no one operates the machine controls while personnel are ad-
justing the push-down components.
Ë 42" Divided Cylinder Machines
The push-down stops on these machines consist of brackets attached to the shell and rubber rest pads, mounted
atop the base pads (see figures below) which make contact when the shell pushes down. The rubber rest pads sit in
metal pans and are raised or lowered by adding metal shims to or removing the shims from inside the pans. Extra
shims and adhesive for securing the shims were supplied with your machine.
There is no specific push-down travel dimension for these machines; however, length of travel must be ad-
justed as follows:
1. With the Master switch set to off, and the shell hanging free, measure the gap between each bracket and base
pad.
2. Add or remove shims from the appropriate pads as required to make all four gaps equal and to insure that no
rest pad protrudes completely from its metal pan.
Test for equal length of travel at all four locations as follows:
3. With four sheet metal shims of equal thickness, set one shim on top of each rubber rest pad, such that at least
a one inch length of the shim overhangs the outside edge of the pad.
4. Set the Master switch to manual, causing the shell to push-down.
