PART REMOVAL, REPLACEMENT & TOOL ADJUSTMENTS, Continued
FEEDWHEEL
1.
To replace the feedwheel, remove the
two socket head cap screws which
secure the outer link.
2.
Remove the outer link from the gear
housing.
3.
Slide the feedwheel off the feedwheel
shaft. The counterbore face of the
feedwheel must face the outer link in
order to match up with the flange
bushing in the outer link.
4.
Replace the feedwheel in the same
manner in which it was removed.
Feedwheel clearance should be checked
after replacing any parts associated with
the tensioning system (See "Clutch
Plug"). This clearance should be
maintained to prevent the feedwheel
from touching the Clutch Plug and
encouraging early failure of these parts.
CLUTCH PLUG
The clutch plug holds the lower strap in the tool
as the strap is being tensioned around the
package. This means that the clutch plug must
extend beyond the surface of the base if it is to
work.
However, if the clutch plug extends too far it can
interfere with the teeth of the feed wheel and
both parts can be damaged if the feed wheel is
turned without strap being present in the tool.
1.
The position of the clutch plug is maintained
by use of a small set screw that approaches
at a right angle. Remove this set screw then
place the tool on its back.
2.
From the lower side of the base install the
clutch plug. Turn the clutch plug inward as
needed to obtain the proper clearance as
shown in the view below.
4.
When the proper clearance has been reached, install the set screw into the base to maintain
the position of the clutch plug.
