Carriage Encoder – Bliss Table
Tools Required:
Rubbing Alcohol and cotton swabs for cleaning wheels (if necessary)
#2 Phillips Screwdriver with long handle
Time to Complete:
Approximately 10 minutes
It is easiest to access the Bliss encoder adjustment from under the carriage. Position the machine at one
end of the table. Lift the pantograph table top half that is under the machine, and slide it over the top of the
other half, or remove it entirely from the table. This will allow you to access the underside of the carriage.
The photos to the right show the
encoder assembly before it is mounted
in the carriage. These photos can help
you locate the encoder wheel itself, and
clean with a q-tip and rubbing alcohol.
Oxidation will not build up as much on
this wheel due to the steel roller running
on a steel rod, but dust and lint will still
build up, making the encoder wheel slip.
