Instructions for Installing Auxiliary Rolls
DOUBLE SEAM or STRAIGHT RIGHT
ANGLE FLANGE ROLLS
1. Remove top cover.
2« Remove rear section of top plate. This will expose the
extended shafts on which the rolls are to be mounted.
3. Select the first pair of rolls, which are marked "Tl" and
"Bl", and slip them on the shafts at the left, or feed side
of the machine, placing "Tl" on the upper shaft and "Bl"
on the lower. Repeat this procedure with rolls "T2" and
"B2"; "T3" and "B3"; "T4" and "B4"; "T5" and "B5" until
all rolls have been mounted. All rolls marked "T" should
be on the top shafts and "B" rolls on the bottom shafts, in
numerical order, reading from left to right, facing shafts.
THE NUMBERED SIDES MUST EACE OUTWARD, OR
TOWARD THE OPERATOR.
4. Fasten rolls to shafts with capscrews and special washers
which are provided.
5. Mount gauge on starting side of machine, using slotted
holes provided in top plate. The position of this gauge is
shown below (Gauge Dimensions). The angle gauge on the
finishing side should be flush against the metal as it
emerges from the rolls.
6« Replace back plate and top cover.
Drive
1o Proceed as instructed for Double Seam Rolls, but leave roll
"T-2" loose. This roll centers itself and should not be held
in place with cap screw. Woodruff keys are used in all
Cleat Rolls
cases, however.
2o Remove stud indicated by arrow below (this is located
between "B4" and "B5") and place the slide block in posi
tion, securing it with the 3" stud furnished. CAUTION:
ALWAYS REMOVE THE SLIDE BLOCK AND REPLACE
THE SHORT STUD WHEN TAKING THE DRIVE CLEAT
ROLLS OFF THE MACHINE.
3» Mount the feed gauge on left
hand side so that it is exactly
centered with the rolls. THIS
IS
VERY IMPORTANT! If it is
not centered, the cleat will not
be perfect.
4
o Tighten small hold-down studs
so that "T5" and "B5'' do not
separate when drive cleats
ZZ ST.-
j
are passing through.
7. Hold material against gauge and feed into machine.
