SECTION 3 – COMPONENT REPAIR
SEALER ASSEMBLY
STRIPPER PLATE ASSEMBLY (con’t)
10. With the stripper plate assembly completely
free of the machine, remove the two shoulder
bolts that hold the stripper plate to the spring
blocks. Each bolt has a nylon washer between
the spring and the block. Do not misplace
these washers, as they are needed during
reinstallation (Figure 3-319).
11. Take one spring block, and remove one of the
set screws. Remove the spring and gripper
button from the block, and replace with the new
components. Reinstall the set screw with
Loctite
®
Blue, and turn until the screw is
protruding 1/8”. This will give the gripper
button springs the proper preload. Repeat this
procedure for the other spring and gripper
button, and for the other block (Figure 3-320).
12. Reinstall the shoulder bolts through the spring
blocks and into the stripper plate according to
Figure 3-321. Remember to install the two
nylon washers removed in step 10.
13. Reinstall the stripper plate assembly into the
machine. Place on top of the jaw guide rails
with the spring blocks turned 90° from their
mounting position, and slide through the plate.
Once the stripper plate is completely into the
machine, turn the spring blocks to their
mounting positions, and insert the eight
mounting screws through the horizontal plate
(Figure 3-322).
