Strip Guide Plate and Feed Pawl
This procedure moves the plate on which the Strip Guides are mounted. Since the terminal strip is fed into the
applicator between the Strip Guides, it is moved front and back over the Anvil as the Strip Guides are moved.
NOTE
Getting the adjustment of the Feed Pawl to match any change in the position of the Front Strip Guide is also described here.
1. From the front of the strip guide plate, loosen the Strip Guide Plate Locking Screw (see Figure 20).
2. With the lead terminal centered over the Anvil, lift and hold (or block) the Feed Pawl up to clear the
Front Strip Guide.
3. Turn the Strip Guide Plate Adjustment Screw
clockwise
to move the Strip Guide Plate toward the rear
or
counterclockwise
to move it toward the front.
Note
: The insulation barrel of the lead terminal should
be as close as possible to the Floating Shear. Tighten the locking screw to hold the Strip Guide Plate
in position.
4. Hand-cycle the machine, checking for proper terminal feed and Strip Guide Plate alignment.
5. If necessary, re-position the Feed Pawl and the Shear Holder(s).
