Central Off-Contact Lever
WARNING:
Before entering between print heads, always push in Emergency Stop button
and disconnect Cycle Interruption Cords. Refer to the beginning of this section for detailed
information.
Central
Off-Contact
Lever
The Central Off-Contact Lever provides a single point to change the off-contact dimension of
all the screens with the adjustment of a lever. This eliminates the need to individually adjust
off-contact for screens when printing different thickness garments. The adjustment is
calibrated in 1/16" (1.5 mm) increments.
Setting the
Off-Contact
Lever
To adjust the lever the index table must be in the
down position. Lift up the stringer (1). Move the
lever to the required position for the off-contact
setting.
Locking the
Off-Contact
Setting
After adjusting the off-contact setting, lower the
stringer (2) to lock the setting. Raise the index
table to check the off-contact.
Note: You will have to adjust the squeegee pressure
setting on each print head that you are using.
However, the floodbar setting remains the same.
Minimum
Off-Contact
Setting
The Central Off-Contact Lever has four possible
positions. With the lever moved all the way to the
right (1), the index table is set at its highest
position for the minimum off-contact setting.
Maximum
Off-Contact
Setting
When the lever is moved all the way to the left (2),
the index table is set at the lowest position. This
setting gives the most off-contact setting, which is
3/16" (5 mm) added to the initial off-contact.
