Use the jog command (Fig. 5.1) to position
the container pick-up unit at its maximum height.
Then place two containers in the magazine and
check that the blades hold the container without
squashing it. Adjust the height of the container
feed using the knob (Part. 4, Fig. 5.14).
To adjust the maximum height of the container
pick-up unit (Part. 5, Fig. 5.14), loosen the lock
nut (Part. 1, Fig. 5.14) and adjust the ring nut
(Part. 2, Fig. 5.14) until the desired position is
obtained, turning it clockwise to increase the
stroke of the pneumatic actuator (Part. 3, Fig.
5.14) and anticlockwise to decrease it.
Use nuts and lock nuts (Part. 4, Fig. 5.14) to
adjust gauging cones.
The gauges are mounted on springs so that they
will fit the shape of the container inside the slot
perfectly (even if pick-up height is changed).
Follow the above procedure when changing
format.
To adjust doser height, slacken the lock nut (Part.
1, Fig. 5.15) and adjust the ring nut (Part. 2,
Fig. 5.15) until the required position is reached,
turning it clockwise to increase the stroke of the
pneumatic cylinder or anticlockwise to decrease
it.
At the end of the adjustment, tighten the lock
nut (Part. 1, Fig. 5.15).
The normal position of the end part of the dosing
nozzles when in the dosing position should be
inside the container below the lid positioning level
in order not to cause damage to the ice cream
decoration after pressing the lid.
To adjust dosage volume, slacken the locking ring
nut (Part. 3, Fig. 5.15) and turn the knob (Part.
4, Fig. 5.15) clockwise to increase volume or
anticlockwise to decrease it.
