STEP 1:

Gate Assembly

Adjustment

(continued)

To adjust the gate for effective material skew control, follow these

steps:

1. Repeat drag test detailed on page 16.
2. Test the piece for uneven side-to-side drag. Grasp with two

hands and slide it front-to-back under the gate assembly. A

proper adjustment allows for equal drag on the left and right

sides of the piece of material.

3. To compensate for greater drag on one side of the material,

turn the

opposite

adjustment roller

counterclockwise

1/8 turn.

Next, turn the other adjustment roller

clockwise

1/8 turn.

4. Repeat drag tests and adjust as needed until equal drag is

achieved. You may need to repeat this procedure after observ

ing the feeder cycling (refer to Section 4, “How to Operate”).

NO TE

When feeding product with varying thickness

throughout, it may be necessary to turn

both adjustment rollers 1-2

full turns

counterclockwise to compensate for the

differential thickness. This procedure allows the

gate horizon to “float.”

IMPOR TANT

The adjustment knob set screws are pre-set at the

factory to lock the knob to the threaded rod. DO

NOT OVERTIGHTEN! Over-tightening the set

screws may damage the components.
