WF-10T Case Former Case Size Adjustments

7.9.1 Horizontal Pinblock Adjustments
Before making any machine
adjustments, refer to the shutdown
procedure outlined in Section 6.5:
‘Shutdown’
.
If, after calibrating Dimension ‘D1’,
you were unable to make the
jawplates parallel, open the jawplates
and look for instances where
pinblocks on the opposing jawplates
are interfering with each other.
Ensure that you do not adjust the
pinblocks too wide.
The location of the pinblocks on the minor jawplate (closest to the backing plate on the main
frame) cannot be adjusted, but the ones on the major jawplate can be moved horizontally and the
pins can be elevated or lowered to suit your case size. It’s important to ensure that the pinblocks
on the major and minor jawplates do not interfere with each other. Pinblocks mounted on the
major jawplate that interfere with those on the minor jawplate should be adjusted sideways until
they no longer cause interference.
To make these adjustments: For each misaligned pinblock, loosen the wingnut that secures the
pinblock to the major jawplate. The pinblocks on the minor jawplate are spaced sufficiently far
apart to allow placement of the pinblocks on the major jawplate between them.
After adjustment, tighten the loosened
wingnuts to complete the horizontal
adjustment. When the case is
properly aligned with the minor
jawplate pins engaged into the bottom
rear major flap, the pins on the major
jawplate should penetrate the bottom
front major flap as close as possible to
the horizontal extremities.
