Adjustment when mounted provides the most satisfactory results.
TOOL HOLDER ADJUSTMENT
Loosen the Hold-down Screws on the Adjustable Slide Rail.
Run the Tool Holder to the most outward position.
Using the Adjustment Set Screws, apply a light force to the side of the Adjustable
Slide Rail so that it is in positive contact with the Tool Holder.
Adjust only those screws, which bear directly in line with the Tool Holder.
Tighten the Hold down Screws to about 12 to 24 in-lbs. (1.4 to 2.7 N-m). (Finger
tight using a hex key)
Using the Spanner Wrench, run the Tool Holder to the inward most position.
Note any changes in the feed pressure.
Adjust the remaining Adjustment Set Screws so that the Tool Holder has a smooth,
even feel.
Run the Tool Holder the full length of the Slide Rail.
Tightly lock the Adjustable Slide Rail in place with the Hold-down Screws and fully
snug the Adjustment Set Screws.
Check that the Tool Holder runs smoothly and evenly for the full length of travel.
Readjust as necessary.
The Tool Holder should move snugly.
In general, when the Slide Rail is set correctly, the Feed Sprocket cannot be turned
by hand but may be turned easily with the Spanner Wrench.
The torque on the Spanner Wrench should be about 2 to 5 ft-lbs. (3 to 7 N-m).
