Lincoln Electric IM10098 CRUISER - Manual (Page 12)

A-5 INSTALLATION
CRUISER™
A-5
OUTRIGGERS
The outriggers “steer” the CRUISER™ along a vertical
surface by driving it at a slight angle. Suggested offset
between the front and rear outriggers is ½” (12.7mm).
Larger offsets increase the friction driving the
CRUIS-
ER™ forward and may cause travel motor overcurrent
errors and rapid wheel wear.
When assembling the CRUISER™ , adjust the cross
slide to the middle position and position the wire in the
joint. Then assemble the front and rear outriggers, and
make fine adjustments to the wire position using the
cross slide.
The outriggers may be stacked to gain extra length.
Slide a T Nut (S28835) into the extrusion and then
insert a ¼-20 bolt through the outrigger slots.
MANUAL STEERING MECHANISM,
ASSEMBLY
As shipped from the factory, the manual steering
mechanism is assembled with a guide wheel for track-
ing in a butt joint. The guide wheel may be replaced
with a rubber wheel for manual steering.
