• Adding shims will loosen the tension on the slide.
• Removing shims will tighten the tension on the slide.
There should always be the same number of shims under
both gibs.
As the slide wears, you may have to remove a shim to reset
the tension. Check the male slide to see if there is any verti-
cal wobble. If you can move the slide, you will need to
remove a shim on each side.
If the slide is too tight, you
may need to add a shim. The
procedure for adding shims is
the same.
1.
Using a 5/16” hex wrench, securely tighten down all 4
screws holding each gib. Check the male slide for ver-
tical wobble. Move the slide to both ends of travel,
checking it as you go.
2.
If you can move the slide vertically at any position,
remove all 4 screws from each gib and take the gibs
off.
3.
Remove one shim from each side. Stack the remaining
shim(s) and the wear plate to line up the holes in the
base plate.
4.
Replace the gibs and the screws. Tighten the screws
down securely.
If the slide is too tight after
you remove a shim, replace
the shim and then adjust the
tension using the push plate
set screws. See instructions
in the next section.
5.
Move the slide through the full range of travel, check-
ing the tension as you go.
Adjust the Push Plate Set Screws
Set the final tension of the slide using the set screws on the
side push plate.
There are four set screw holes in the side of the slide. Each
hole has a screw for adjusting the push plate, and a second
screw inserted as a jam screw.
1.
Using a 5/16” hex wrench in the end of the feed screw,
turn the screw until the male slide is all the way to the
inner end of the screw.
2.
Using the 5/16” hex wrench, crack loose the 4 screws
on each gib.
3.
Using a 5/32” hex wrench, remove the jam screws
from all 4 set screw holes.
