Figure 8. Adjusting the Clamping Lever Collars
1.
Slightly loosen the set screws retaining the clamping collars on each end
of the machine. Set screws should be loose enough to permit
adjustment of the clamping collars, but not so loose as to permit loss of
position on the clamping collars when the clamping levers are moved.
2.
Tighten the clamping collars by turning them clockwise, until you are
unable to move the clamping levers to clamp material.
3.
Back off the clamping collars by turning them counterclockwise until you
can move the clamping levers to clamp material. The collars are
properly adjusted when one lever can be unclamped, and the lever at
the opposite end of the machine remains clamped. It may require
several adjustments at each end of the machine to achieve the proper
tension. During these adjustments, be sure the set screws remain tight
enough to prevent loss of position by the clamping collars when the
clamping levers are moved.
4.
When the collars are properly adjusted, tighten the set screws securely
to retain the clamping collars in place.
