SECTION IV
CARE & MAINTENANCE
GENERAL CARE
In order to get the most efficiency from your Value Line Cutting and Creasing Press, it should be given the good care due
any precision machine. It should be kept reasonably clean and free from foreign matter. Do not allow waste material to collect in
bridge cam well, on rocker seats, or in gear teeth.
While the press is ruggedly built of high quality materials and relatively trouble free, you should carefully follow all
operating instructions, and check the machine for proper adjustments and wear at the first indication of improper performance.
Keep the machine properly lubricated at all times and do not abuse it by overloading, either with too heavy a job, poor
makeready, dull dies, or variations in material conditions such as thickness, moisture content, and grain.

PROCEDURE FOR SQUARING BRIDGE & ADJUSTING BRIDGE CAM ROLLER ON VALUE LINE 19X 25
PRESSES
1. Cycle the press until the top bridge lugs are just on top of the frame rocker plates.
2. Turn off all power to the press and make sure flywheel motion has stopped.
3. Place the parallel bar (shipped with the press) into the machine, hanging it from the top of the platen by the pin sticking out
from the edge of the bar near the top. Be sure to place the bar an equal distance from each side of the platen.
4. With the special crank supplied with the press, move the bridge so that the bar is very close to contacting the frame face (about
.010").
5. Adjust the impression to lightly squeeze the parallel bar in the press. Be sure that both sides are adjusted such that the
indicators read exactly the same. The platen should not be tipped from side to side.
6. Loosen both the top and the bottom bridge lugs.
7. With the crank, move the bridge to firmly squeeze the parallel bar in the press.
8. Adjust the bridge lugs so that they are firmly against the bridge guide (tighten both the top and bottom securely).
9. Adjust the cam roller using the eccentrics on either end of the roller shaft such that the roller turns freely after locking the
adjusting eccentrics in place, as they may move while you tighten the locks.
10. With the crank turn in the opposite direction until the top bridge lug is within 1/4" of leaving the rocker plates.
11. Remove the parallel bar.
12. Using a .002" feeler gauge, check the clearance between each side of the roller and the cam way. The .002" feeler should
slide completely through from side to side without obstruction on one side of the cam way. On the opposite side of the cam
way you should be unable to start the feeler gauge in any position. This test is performed to assure that the cam roller is
parallel to the cam way and does not make contact with the front of the cam way on one end of the roller and the rear of the
cam way with the other end of the roller.
