Ram Hood Adjustment
The 2 brackets on the ram hood must be checked for adjustment to make
sure the ram does not extend to far and that when it returns it does not
have a hard hitting stop.
The rear bracket hits the manual ram bar as the rams goes out, it needs to
be adjusted so that it hits the return bar before the ram is fully extended.
Optional: If the customer is only cutting and splitting shorter lengths, the
bar can be reversed to shorten the stroke and reduce the cycle time
The front bracket hits the post on the manual return arm as the ram
returns home, this must hit the post before the ram hits its internal stops,
softening the stop.
This should be adjusted so that the ram hood does not stick out into the
splitting valley when it is in the home position, it should not be sunk into the
housing, it should sit almost flush will the front wall.
