To obtain optimum results, shear alignment and shear
bow are two conditions which may need to be adjusted
depending on the gauge and type of material you want
to shear. Shears that are out of adjustment may lead to
uneven or ragged cuts.
To correct shear alignment, do these steps:
1.
Lower the shear and hold it in position.
2.
Looking along the length of the blade, check the
gap of the moving blade and the fixed blade with a
0.002" feeler gauge as shown in
Figure 7.
— If the gap is the same along the length of the
blades then no further adjustment is needed.
— If the gap is unequal, proceed to
Step 3.
— If you detect a bow in the gap, read the next sub-
section on shear bow.
3.
Loosen the two cap screws that hold the table in
place (see
Figure 7
).
4.
Turn the adjustment screws until the gap is equal
across the length of the blades (see
Figure 8
).
5.
Tighten the two table adjustment screws and re-
check.
To adjust for shear bow do these steps:
1.
Make small adjustments to the bolt attached to the
shear blade adjustment bar (see
Figure 9
).
2.
Tighten the bolt to cause the ends of the upper
blade to move away from the fixed blade or loosen
the bolt to cause the ends of the upper blade to
move toward the fixed blade.
3.
Once the shear bow is corrected, re-check the shear
gap.
