INTRODUCTION
The Adjustable Slide and Clamp Assembly is designed
for double torch operation with the CM-79 torch riggings
(Figs. 1 and 2). The ASSEMBLY consists of two parts,
the adjustable SLIDE and the torch holder CLAMP.
The SLIDE is a slotted fixture which can be slipped into
either end of the rigging rack, and is equipped with a
pinioned knob that engages the rack teeth. The knob is
turned to move the ASSEMBLY along the rack. The
ASSEMBLY can be locked in position on the rack by
means of a locking thumbscrew on the SLIDE.
INSTALLATION FOR DOUBLE TORCH
OPERATION
1. Check to see that the fiber plug under the locking
thumbscrew on the adjustable Slide and Clamp Assembly does not project into the space to be occupied by the rack. If it does, remove it by forcing it all
the way out with the thumbscrew. Remove the thumbscrew, reinsert the plug in its proper position, then
replace the thumbscrew.
NOTE: Care should be taken to see that the fiber
plug is not lost or damaged in sliding the
assembly on and off the rack.
2. Slip the adjustable Slide and Clamp Assembly on to
either end of the rack with the slide locking thumbscrew away from the toothed side of the rack.
3. Insert the protruding stud of the torch holder into the
torch holder clamp on the assembly. Tighten the
clamp thumbscrews.
4. Install the torch in the holder.
5. Attach your present clamp and torch holder to either
end of the rack and install the torch. Loosen the clamp
thumbscrew that locks the torch-holder stud in position and back the stud out about 1/4 in. until the two
torches are in alignment.
Maximum distance obtainable between
torch enters 24 inches.
The CLAMP is the connecting fixture between the SLIDE
and the torch holder. One end of the CLAMP fits over
the end of the SLIDE. The other end of the CLAMP
receives the torch holder stud. The position of the
CLAMP on the SLIDE can be adjusted to control torch
lead or lag angle along the line of cut. The torch holder
stud in the other end of the CLAMP can be turned to
control torch angle for bevel cutting. Both ends of the
CLAMP are provided with thumbscrews for locking the
torch in position at the desired angle along or across the
line of cut.
Be sure this information reaches the operator.
You can get extra copies through your supplier.

NOTE: If the accuracy of torch alignment is a critical
factor in the operation, correct alignment can
be automatically obtained by using an offset
clamp (45N76 available as an accessory). The
thumbscrews from your present clamp may be
retained for use with the offset clamp, or two
additional thumbscrews from your present clamp
may be retained for use with the offset clamp,
or two additional thumbscrews may be purchased, if so desired.
OPERATION
1. Use the pinioned knob to move the adjustable Slide
and Clamp Assembly along the rack to the desired
position.
2. Lock the assembly in position on the rack with the
locking thumbscrew on the side.
NOTE: The slide thumbscrew will lock only against the
square sections of the rack, not against the
round ends.
3. To adjust torch angle along or across the line of cut,
loosen clamp thumbscrews, set torch at desired angle,
and retighten thumbscrews.
