5.3 Setting the rubber buffer
To protect the needle, the rubber buffer can be adjusted so that the needle will no longer strike the glass
plate, but the rubber buffer just in front of the glass plate instead.
Note
Caution! Needle-Break recognition will be without function then.
Behind the drop rod is a screw with the rubber buffer screwed onto it. This screw is secured by a nut.
Hood and drop rod are the same for all devices (4, 6, 8 and 12-stations).
