It is possible to stamp consecutive numbers in two forms. The zeros preceding a
number may be included or excluded. For example, the number 25 may be
stamped as 000025 or as 25.
Including Zeros
These instructions include the zero preceding a number.
1. Using the “pick” supplied with the Model 250P, rotate the unit wheel, which is
the right most wheel, by inserting the pick between the wheel and pushing on
the index plate. Rotate it away from the actuating pawl (50-3-10) until the
number 1 is at the bottom.
2. Rotate the other wheels away from the actuating pawl until the number zero is
at the bottom.
3. If the tripper assembly and the press are properly adjusted, the Model 250P is
ready to stamp consecutive numbers.
Excluding Zeros
These instructions exclude the zeros preceding a number.
1. The unit wheel is the right most wheel. Rotate it away from the actuating pawl
(50-3-10), until the number one is at the bottom.
2. Rotate the other wheels away from the actuating pawl, until the number zero
is at the bottom.
3. Further rotate the wheels, except the unit wheel, slowly until it snaps into the
next indent. At this wheel position a recessed space is downward and hence,
no impression will be made. As the consecutive number increases, each
wheel will still advance at the proper time.
Disassembly Instructions
The following directions assume the numbering head is resting with the front side
up and the frame legs toward the operator. The actuating pawl (50-3-10) is on
the front side. The Model 250P can be disassembled in any convenient position,
but the directions are for a head in the above location.
1. Choose a clean bench to disassemble the Model 250P.
2.
CAUTION: Wear safety glasses when disassembling the Model 250P
.
Springs, which are part of the head, could fly out during disassembly and
cause eye injury.
