PREFACE

This Engineer'sManual is written tor the technical personnel who are responsible for the service and maintenance of the machine.

This manual describes "Standard Adjustment", "Adjustment Proceduresft, ~Results of lmproperAdjustment~, and other important information which are not covered by the Instruction Manual.

It is advisable to use the relevant Instruction Manual and Parts List together with this Engineer'sManual when carrying out the maintenance oi these machines.

This manual gives the "Standard adjustment" on the former page under which the most basic adjustment value and on the latter page the "Results of improper adjustment" under which errors and troubles arise.
