Checking and adjusting the rail vibration
T
his machine’s rail vibration can be adjusted.
The screw transport speed differs depending on the screw type. Check the screw transport
speed. If the rail vibration hinders a smooth transport of the screws, it can be adjusted.
1.
Loosen the anti-vibration screw at the rear of the machine.
2.
Next, turn the vibration adjusting screw, located on the bottom of the machine, to
adjust the vibration.
When the screw is turned clockwise, as viewed from the bottom of the machine, the
vibration will increase.
When the screw is turned counterclockwise, the vibration decreases.
If the vibration is adjusted to a too large a value to increase the transport speed, the rail
will hit against the escaper and screws may fall into the machine from the clearance, failing
to unload screws normally. Adjust the vibration to a proper value that matches the loaded
screws.
