INTRODUCTION
The DC-IV Drive Unit is the basic drive for many BUG-0 SYSTEMS machines.
This drive unit mounts on BUG-0 carriages designed for DC drives. The
DC-IV is a positive rack and pinion drive with a wide range solid state speed
control. Once mounted on a carriage, the drive unit will run in any position
using Aluminum Rigid Rail, Aluminum Flex Rail or Bent Rigid Rail [with a
minimum radius of 10' (3 m)].

ASSEMBLY AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The DC-IV Drive Unit has been factory tested and is ready to be mounted on
any standard BUG-O SYSTEMS carriage.
To install the drive unit, screw the cam clutch stud into the carriage. Use the
5/16 x 3/8 socket head shoulder screw provided to attach the DC-IV to the
carriage.
Rotate the Cam Knob (B) to move the drive in and out of engagement with
the rack.
To lock the drive position, tighten the 1/4-28 Wing Nut (A) provided.
To position the drive unit, loosen the 1/4-28 Wing Nut (A) and turn the Cam Knob (B) far enough to disengage the drive pinion from the rack. Move the
carriage to the starting point on the rail. Turn the Cam Knob (B) to engage
the drive pinion with the rack. Retighten the 1/4-28 Wing Nut (A) to lock the
drive carriage into position.
Two pinion gears are provided. The Factory InstalledPinion (H) engages
the bull gear to provide a high torque, low speed range. The user can easily
install the Alternate Pinion (J) to bypass the bull gear and obtain a low
torque, high speed range.
Once the Power Cord (C) is plugged into the appropriate power source, the
Pilot Light (D) will glow. Switch (E) controls the direction of travel, with the
center position as “OFF”. Knob (F) controls the speed.
The Circuit Breaker (G) protects the drive unit against overload or electrical
faults.
CAUTION: IF THE CIRCUIT BREAKER OPENS, FIND AND CORRECT
THE CAUSE OF FAILURE BEFORE RESETTING.
BUG-O SYSTEMS CARRIAGES are made of high-strength, lightweight
aluminum alloys. The carriage wheels ride in opposed recessed grooves
or ways in the ARR rails, locking the carriage to the rail in all positions. The
pinion from the drive unit goes through the carriage and engages the rack on
the rail, providing a positive drive. Two of the four wheels on each carriage
are adjustable. The wheels contain permanently lubricated, sealed bearings.
All steel components are plated to resist corrosion.

DETAILED SETUP
1. INSTALL RAIL
The Tube Carriage is designed for use with Bent Rigid Rail (BRR) or
Ring Rail. The exact outside diameter (OD) of the work piece, including
coating, must be known when ordering rail. Minimum pipe OD is 9 inches (229 mm). Rail is custom bent for each OD and features adjustable
feet to accommodate pipe ovality and deviations in coating thickness.
2. SECURE CARRIAGE ON RAIL
A. Select the correct pair of holes on each side of the carriage for the
rail diameter being used (see chart on next page). If the wheels are
not attached to the correct set of holes, remove the wheel brackets
and bolt them in selected holes. Tighten the bolts until the brackets
are snug but still free to rotate.
B. Loosen the adjustment knob to separate the two halves of the split
carriage. Loosen and turn the clutch knob counterclockwise to put
the drive in the declutched position.
C. Place the carriage on the ring rail with the wheels in the rail grooves.
Close the cam handle and move the carriage back and forth a few
inches. The wheels on their mounting brackets will align themselves
correctly with the rail grooves.
D. Verify that wheels are properly aligned, then tighten the wheel mount-
ing bolts to lock them in position. Rotate the clutch knob clockwise
to engage the drive pinion with the rack.
E. Verify that pinion is properly engaged in rack. The correct wheel
position will provide a minimum of 1/8" (3.175 mm) engagement
between the drive pinion and the gear rack.

ALUMINUM RIGID RAIL / “ARR”
ALUMINUM RIGID RAIL is a rigid channel section made of high quality alloy
to machine tool tolerance as in the sectional view shown below. A machined
gear rack is mounted on the rail, with which the drive pinion of the carriage
meshes. The wheels of the carriage travel in opposed grooves at either side
of the rail, locking the carriage to the rail. Heavy duty [H.D.) aluminum fourlegged rigid rail is supplied in two lengths: ARR-1080 [93-1/2" (2.37 m)] called
8" (2.37 m) rail and ARR-1085 [46-1/2" (1.18 m) called 4' (1.18 m) rail - see
insert below. Extra heavy duty aluminum four-legged rigid rail: ARR-1250 [931/2" (2.37 m)] called 8' (2.37 m) rail and ARR-1200 [46-1/2" (1.18 m)] called
4' (1.18 m) rail, is also available.
RAIL FOR LONGER SPANS:
When unsupported rail paths longer than 93-1/2" (2.37 m) nominal 8'
(2.37 m) rail are required, multiple sections of standard rail are mounted on
plate, I-beam, channel or box sections.

Aluminum Rigid Rail can be rolled to a radius of 15' (5 m) and larger for
use on curved surfaces.

FLEX RAIL
FLEX RAIL can be bent inside or
outside to a minimum radius of 15'
(5.0 m) or 30' (10.0 m) diameter without
permanent deformation.
AFR-3000 FLEX RAIL replaces the old AFR-1000, 1010, 1020 and the later
AFR-2000 rails. All the rack-mounting holes on the AFR-3000 Semi-Flex Rail
are slotted so that the rack can slide along the rail. The length of the slots has
been increased so that the rails can now be leapfrogged around a complete
circle. The tension of the screws holding the rack on the rail is adjusted so that
the rack can be moved along the rail with the AFR-2001 Rack-Adjusting Tool.
NOTE: Use at least four attachments (magnets or vacuum cups) on
each FLEX RAIL.

STANDARD MAGNET ASSEMBLIES
MAGNET PLATE ASSEMBLIES mount on ARR rail quickly and conveniently
right on the work surface. Magnets cannot exert maximum pull on dirty material. Remove excessive paint, scale and rust from the area on which the
magnets will be placed.
KEEP MAGNETS CLEAN - before positioning, wipe off magnetic particles
which adhere to the poles.
For MAXIMUM HOLDING POWER on swivel magnets, press down on top of
each side of magnet...then rotate until it holds rmly. The magnet will retain
its magnetism indenitely - to preserve the magnet casing, keep torch 4" (100
mm) away from magnets when burning. Use various thicknesses of keepers
to decrease the magnetic pull when required.
ARM-2248 - Magnet bar, short; compact for positioning in hard-to-reach or
restricted areas. This assembly holds up to 200 lbs. (91 kg) on a at, clean
steel surface.
ARM-2010 - The New, Bug-O/ Mag-switch, Switchable On/Off Rare-Earth
magnet assembly provides for quick rail positioning without ghting the
magnet. The lighter weight, at just 1.7 lb. (.77 kg), less than all other magnet
assemblies, improves handling. 200 lb. (90 kg) holding capacity. Fits standard
ARR-rails.
ARM-2330 - Low prole magnet assembly with quick release lever; for use
on jobs that have height restrictions. This assembly holds up to 200 lbs. (91
kg) on a at, clean steel surface.

magnet assemblies per 4' (1.18 m) section.

VACUUM SUPPORT KIT
The standard Vacuum Support Kit, ARV-1080, consists of four (4) bars (with
8 cups) and associated hose and ttings. Some applications may require
additional ARV-1036 Vacuum Support Bar assemblies. (See exploded view
opposite page.)

ARV-1080 Vacuum Support Kit
Vacuum bars require a source of vacuum, which is provided by a Vacuum Pump
Kit (ARV-2020 [120 VAC]; ARV-2030 [240 VAC]). (See page 16 exploded view.)
NOTE: Keep ame or arc at least 4" (I00 mm) away from vacuum cups. Vac-
uum cups can be used on preheated material to 6000 F (3180 C).
16
ARV-1036 INTERMEDIATE VAC SUPPORT BAR
VACUUM CUPS are used for mounting the rail to the workpiece
when magnet bars will not hold. EXAMPLE: Stainless steel or
nonferrous surfaces. The surface must be smooth and nonporous.
Each vacuum bar is tted with two (2) cups and will exert a
maximum pull of 100 lbs. (45 kg).
