2. Check with a plumb line to see that the heel of Transmitter Pedal is 6“ in back of front edge of the table.

3. Place the Machine on the Table between the belt slots and even with front edge of Table. Install crossed Belt o and open Belt p. The rear leg of Belt p must pass between the Idle Pulley q and Belt Guard r.

4. Adjust Machine sideways as necessary so that Belt p is central in its belt slot, and attach Machine to Table with 4 wood screws.

q5. Crank the Machine head to the rearmost point of its travel and adjust Idle Pulley q, to provide approximately 1/4“ clearance between Belt Guard r and the front leg of Belt p.

MODEL 101 - SETTING UP INSTRUCTIONS

Before operating the machine by hand or power, remove the two shipping pins nshown Fig.1, which are easily identified by a red tag tied to each - these pins nare installed at the factory to lock the Head oand Bed Plate ptogether as a protection against shipping damages.

Set up machine in accordance with the instructions on the installation template that is sent with each new machine. This template shows two different installations depending on direction of rotation of the power shaft. The one marked „Preferred Installation“ on which the left hand machine belt is crossed and the

right hand one open, should always be employed when the machine is installed on a Reece Individual Motorized Table. The „Preferred Installation“ should also be used whenever possible in cases where the machine is installed on a line shaft table.

In the event that the machine should be disassembled at any time, the correct line-up of the Head o on the Bed Plate p can be re-established by using one of the shipping pins n in the follower manner:

Turn the left hand crank handle until shipping pin hole q Fig. 2 in the Head o corresponds with shipping pin hole r in Bed Plate p. If holes q and r do not line up exactly, loosen clamp screw u Fig. 2 and move the Head o of machine to left or right until holes q and r line up when tested with the shipping pin. If no shipping pin is available, proceed as outlined above, but match line s on Head o with line t on Bed Plate p as illustrated Fig. 2. Important - Before tightening clamp screw u, press lever 1-C19 v upward on the stud to lightly contact the shoulder of the Cam Case w. Note - Do not follow these line-up instructions on Adjustable Fly Bar machines. Use the instructions on Sheet 28.
